Megas vs Alolan Forms

No.27729548 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Megas:

Pros
>Super Powerful
>Usually have better abilities
>Made past forgotten pokemon viable
>Appealing to pokemon fans

Cons
>Can't hold items
>Toxic to competitive environment (too overcentralizing to both singles and doubles, you NEED a mega to win)
>Most are either outclassed or just plain unfair
>Some designs look dumb


Alolan Forms (so far):

Pros
>Gives much love to the gen 1 pokemon that didn't get a mega
>They still seem powerful, but also balanced (BSTs will most likely be arranged from normal forms, not increased, which is understandable)
>Amazing designs
>Can hold separate items
>The idea behind it is brilliant
>Overall good reception from everyone

Cons
>Looks limited to gen 1 so far. May change in the future however, but we will see.
>The abilities given are somewhat mediocre so far.


Well, what do you guys think? Will you be ok with Megas being purged from existence Alolan forms taking their place in the scene? Do you think Megas and Alolan forms will work together?
