If this generation has let us know anything its that GF has decided to pander to a select group of people while disregarding whats actually good for the games health. Between 2 charzard megas & a lucario handout I've lost hope that we'll see anything for something that isnt already popular or favored by GF.

This fucking this. Fix the prankster ability so it gets prioty the turn they transform & then give it some kind o recovery & then mega banette will be able to counter a shit lot of pokemon that actually need to be countered.

I still want to believe there will be a mega golem and machamp since they already did half of the 1st gen trade to evolve pokemon. If not then oh well, I still use Golem in OU because he's a beast.

The extra bulk makes sense for Aggron, since most of its additional stats were invested in its defenses.

Are you me? I generally use mine as a Custap lead though, replacing explosion with stealth rock or something. And Brave nature. I even bred a 5IV one in my game, and it's one of my few useful pokemon.

GF is vey likely to try and sweep it under the table like it never happened without actually removing it. They'll probably just give new pokemon better stats creating yet another power creep that results in even more now useless mons and this wont be dealt with until gen8.

>mfw all suggested megas are given part dragon

Seriously guys. stop giving dwagun to every fucking thing... Unless it's mega Dragonite. Dragon/Dragon typing with double STAB to make 2.25x just to remind people is the original fucking dragon.

Mega Jynx please. It's rivals Magmar and Electabuzz got their own evolutions so Jynx needs love. It stays fucking Ice/Psychic

It becomes:
65 / 50 / 70 / 150 / 105 / 105

Ability: Draining Aura: All attacks that drain enemy health are special based and target special defense and are x1.5 effective in damage and healing so:

Drain Punch is a 112.5bp special move hitting special defense healing for 75% damage dealt

Draining Kiss is a 75bp move healing for 112.5% of damage dealt

Dream Eater is 150bp move healing for 75% of damage dealt

No it isn't great but I'm not here to make broken shit. Dream Eater is possibly too much but its very easily counterable.

Why aren't you using Mega Ampharos?

With a modest nature, one Agility will let it outspeed anything lower than base 110 speed. And Mold Breaker will ignore shit like Lightning Rod, Volt Absorb, Multiscale, Sturdy and Magic Bounce. It's really fucking great.

Focus Blast is a guaranteed 2HKO on an Assault Vest Tyranitar in sand, whatever the EV spread or nature is. Provided it hits, that is.

I'm pissed that megas probably mean the only actual evolutions we'll get in the future are more fucking eevees.
Absol, Banette, Mawile, Medicham and electric trapezoid could have used their megas as actual evos.

I'm more than okay with M-Kanga but all of the others are just an interesting idea played out terribly.

2/3 of the pokemon that got mega stones were UU and under. I'm fairly certain at least half were RU and below as well.

You only feel this way because the good pokemon are the best mega evos, since they put this retarded '+100 BST only' on it, rather than '+100 BST or enough to push you to 600 BST, whichever's greater'
