>>30839263Mega Evolution was a fine concept.
"For pokemon whose designs are finished or a bit too strong to be justified a full evolution, we can give them a form beyond that's a bit above the curve at the cost of an item slot."
IE: Mawile, Sabyleye, Pidgeot, Beedrill, Glailie, Ampharos, even to an extent Gardevoir/Gallade.
The issue was in the execution where starters, PSEUDO-LEGENDARIES, AND FULL FUCKING LEGENDARIES got Megas.
