Before Mega Sharpedo was announced, there were many fan-made Megas for Sharpedo. But for whatever reason, not ONE person was able to design a good one. Mega Sharpedo is my favorite Mega by far, yet not a single fan made one was ever good. What's so hard about designing a Mega for Sharpedo? Gamefreak did it. Why couldn't other people?

Mega Sharpedo is the laziest mega yet anon. It looks awful. Its every stereotype of what a mega can be.

They neither refined or improved on the conecpet of Shapedo. They added a bunch of fucking stripes and spikes. Its really bad

Fan megas change too much from the original Pokemon. A mega isn't an evolution but an upgrade. What makes a Pokemon standout and unique should be improved or powered up.

What makes Sharpedo standout is its speed, jaws and the star on its head. Mega Sharpedo becomes more streamlined, grows more teeth and yellow scars.

A lot of fan megas add too much gimmicky shit that turns away from the original Pokemon's design.

Sharpedo is supposed to be aggressive and fast. All of these traits are exaggerated in it's Mega. The stripes are supposed to be scars (says so in the Moon dex entry) from fighting. It's attack and it's speed both increase, hence why it becomes more slim and gets a shit-ton of spikes. It kinda makes sense in this case. It's OK to have Megas that just add spikes, so long as every Mega doesn't follow the same principal. And they don't.

Some of those aren't bad, and if the mega sharpedo you know was switched by one above by GF, you would be saying the same thing.

I don't like that it's just a head and a tail. No body. Why?

To match how Carvanha and regular Sharpedo are just heads with no bodies.

Anon, Carvhana is just a normal piranha. It's name is basically carnivorous piranha. Sharpedo is a shark torpedo.

its not the best they really did just add a bunch or spikes and stripes
>>31107142 this one is pretty cool tho adding a tail or at least making somewhat actually torpedo sharped would have been a big plus rather then it being just... this weird floating head

It's okay if you don't know what a regular piranha looks like, anon. There's no shame in it.

They made it a sawfish, anon. Did tou forget?

The scars are there to make it appear wartorn, and the spikes are for intimidation. Only dumb thing are those fucking hinges on its month.

Okay Carvanha is more round, but it's still basically just a normal fish.

Someone drew this for me before Mega Sharpedo was revealed. I think it looks pretty good. I'm still kind of disappointed MSharpedo wasn't torpedo-like.
