>>31625009>>31625021I've been lurking for a while and it's pretty clear that you two don't understand what's happening here.
A Mega is basically a direct buff to that pokemon making it usable in a similar way to a mon gaining a new ability. Emphasis on it because it's still that Pokemon you haven't evolved it, you haven't swapped it out it's still that the same pokemon you had before you mega evolved it.
You will always have to send out the shitmon and change it into the mega.
With Evolution now you're doing exactly that you've swapped out the preexisting mon with something that looks and sounds different and like this anon said
>>31625039 it also may be something that doesn't appeal to the person who liked the previous Pokemon or drastically change said Pokemon like most Gen 4 evolutions.
Basically that shitmon has now been shoved to the side completely for this new, potentially unappealing Pokemon
>>31625060> At least i could eviolite Togetic if i really hated TogekissEviolite works well on a grand total of about 4 Pokemon. It's not going to make Mon like Togetic, Tangela or Onix any better especially after the Knock Off buff.
