The upkeep doesn’t matter if you walk 8km every time you want to mega evolve it, which is typical since you don’t really have much of an incentive to mega evolve every single day. The fact that you can’t just mega evolve a random Pokemon you just met by throwing a stone onto it is much better than how it is incorporated into the games, since it doesn’t just make megas a guaranteed Pokemon. Don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely played as a cash grab, but there’s no reason to pretend it’s any different from legendary Pokémon that you can only get in raids and can only be used in all settings megas can be used in except GBL.
