Here's classic. They fucked it up twice pretty nicely. First they introduced SR, then they gave it a shit HA, and finally, they're too afraid to introduce more SR variants to balance things out.

It's not so much about caring if your favorite is viable, use it as a chance to branch out.

Look at what's best in the tier, and find a team made up of Pokemon you enjoy.

Megas are evolutions. Plus, you can only use one Mega at a time. And VGC doesn't allow them now.
Megas don't fix Charizard. They give you new Charizards.

Taking away Megas, most starters are RU or bellow. So UU is a pretty good tier to be in considering that other starters are that low. Meganium is still fucking trash in PU and that's as low as you can get.

Difference is, you can have Castform and another Pokemon in alternate form in a team at the same time, and don't have to restrict their item slot.
Mega Evolution isn't just a new form. You can only have one of it in your team at any give time. On top of that, it isn't even something the Pokemon can achieve by itself. It NEEDS a Mega Stone. It is a lot different from alternate forms.
