It didn't. Mega Blaziken is a top tier threat.

Pssh Leftovers Blaziken is factually more annoying than Mega Blaziken. Don't tell anyone though, I don't want to play against it on wifi.

You cannot grasp the terror that is Mega Blastoise with Klefki setting up walls. Everything dies to Aura Sphere/Dark Pulse/Water Pulse, and it actually has enough speed to deal with other bulky attackers.

The only issue is to actually bring regular Toise on any attack that leaves him under 50% HP.

not much difference, except you get to use a different mega

mega gets more speed but it's not really relevant with speed boost
gets 10 more defences too

Mega Blaziken is absolute pure festering shit. You'd be better off wasting your mega slot on Ampharos for Mold Breaker t-waves or Gardevoir for its extra attack.

Typhlosion is shit and I hope it, Meganium, and Serperior never get Megas so they can be worthless and shitty together.

All the other starters can have 2-3 Megas though.

Differentfag here, Typhlosion is THE worst designed starter. It just gets bigger and its stats are copypasted from Charizard. It's a fucking awful Pokemon.

When the supposed top tier threat's checks and counters are the most common top tier threats in the game, it's a shit pokemon.

If, in order to be usable, a pokemon needs team mates to clear away five counters that weren't even put on the team to BE counters, it's absolutely a shit.

No, Emboar's design is great and disliking it because you're a blind genwunner who has an outdated view of how Pokemon "should" look doesn't count.

Typhlosion is shit in every way.

Clean off your contrarian glasses, anon. I fully understand the reasoning behind Emboar's chinese flourishes and I can recognize its bad design. I get it, I really do -- Pig from journey to the west. It still has and obnoxiously bold pallet and design though.

The thing about Megas is that you can only have one per battle... which leads to everyone picking the best couple of Mega pokemon.
