>>15549136Here's a little interesting thing.
Let's take Scizor. A good ol' fashioned Cross-gen evo. I can run tons of sets with him playng competitively. I can slap a Choice band on him and use him to sweep in the late-game, I can put a Choice Scarf and attempt to pull a sweep with the Metal Claw boosts. I can even give him a Occa Berry for stray HP Fire, or Leftovers for a Bulky set. And if we want to go more gimmick, I can even give it a Focus Sash and make it a Baton Passer.
And after the hard battle has been won, I can take Scizor to the Pokémon-Amie, pet , and feed it for a while. Then I can enter a contenst where Scizor will shine and gain a rainbow. And then I'll put together a team of Cross-gens evos only, and led by my Scizor, beat the E4 once again and have permanenty recorded on the Hall of Fame.
Then, some kid who is strting at pokémon will come up to me and ask me to show him my team. And i'll gladly press the menu button and show him my Ballin Scizor.
Now for the juicy part: You can't do anything of what I said above with MegaEvolutions
>>15549169which is a retarded way to make your argument
