I wish they put more emphasis on it's gatling gun animation(it doesn't even show up on the moves benefited by Skill Link). Hopefully S/M would redo some old animations in conjunction with the moves.

This makes it only slightly less bad. I never knew about that animation, but I still really dislike M-heracross's design. I really liked most of the new mons and plenty of the megas, but damn do I not like this one.

The only problem with the design is that weird vent thing on it's stomach. What is it's purpose?

Why Skill Link? That's something that could have been for a future mega like Cloyster or Minccino.
Why not Guts?

Vanilla Heracross would be a better guts abuser anyway with better speed tier and easier status access with the orbs. Skill Link makes Megacross a more reliable attacker dedicated to destroy walls and sub users

>MFW I found out M-Heracross has the second highest Attack of any pokemon
>Second only to Mewtwo X and stronger than Both Primals, Mega Rayquaza, and even Attack Deoxys

So I take it the only thing that was holding it back was the abundance of Flying type buffs this generation?

Its a great late game sweeper with sticky web, or tailwind since it gets amazing coverage and already massive attack.

The only thing holding it back was Arm Thrust being dogshit. Its also not very fast.

but fun fact:
Heracross gained I think 60 Attack, 40 defense, and lost 10 speed for 10 Sp. Def. basically it gained the ENTIRE MEGA BOOST to only 2 stats, which is pretty fucking ridiculous. Same with Mewtwo-X actually. No gains to almost anything but its Attack stat.

Just it's Bug typing and Fairy hold it back, Fire and Flying can't switch in because of Rock Blast and only a few Psychic can switch in on any neutral attack, other than that it's pretty easy to take it down after sacrificing a teammate.

The only thing holding it back is its terrible speed and plethora of weaknesses.

If Arm Thrust had 25 BP it would be more preferable over CC.

Mega Sceptile is one terrible mega that changed nothing, they should have given it a huge boost to Attack instead of Special Attack to make use of that sweet physical movepool.

If Pinsir doesn't get to be fighting type, no pokemon does.

Megas should be min-maxed because they are supposed to make the Pokémon stronger. Garde and Zam do not need attack, nor does heracross need sp atk
