What changes would you make to megas if you were in charge of the concept during the development of XY?

Allow you to leave them evolved if you like but take up their item slot. Mainly because I hate having to watch the mega animation every single battle. Also give mega Houndoom a different ability cause solar power is ass

keep giving megas to starters and shillmons for marketing reasons BUT also give plenty of megas to pokemon that need a buff and generally make the latter better in battle.
also do away with the "100 BST boost to everyone" policy. That's too much for some pokemon and not enough for others.

I just want the megas like Houndoom who got shafted in the ability department to get better ones that suit them more.

Have just 1 Megastone as a hold item instead of several dozens.
What were they thinking when doing online distributions of megastones in SM?
>>39160064
I like this idea.

Just make them a new evolution stage, like all other evolution stones, but you're still only allowed to have one in your team

Only problem with that is how it might interact with eviolite, and that megas would then be able to hold items.

Yes, it changes things, just like when other Pokemon got new evolutions. So people would have to think up ways to combat them

They hadn't learned cause look at all the damn Arceus plates, and now the specific Z crystals and Silvally memories. They created this bloat cause GF are fucking retarded.

Not much. Delete or rebalance the clearly broken megas given to already great pokemon. Try and make some of them more unique as opposed to some of the boring ones like mega scizor which is just bulkier scizor.

In the pre elite4 story Corrina or the regional NPC gives you an Imperfect Megastone wich it requires you to win 5 battle befores you can use it, when you mega-evolve the stone lost its energy and you need 5 more wins against trainers to activate the mega-evolution again.

Once you reach the end of the victory road some NPC will gives you a perfect Megastone wich you can use whenever you want

Also all the elite4 + champion can megaevolve.

Are autists like you this mad at a burst mechanic?
Normal evos just don't cut it, I'm glad I can use intimidate and hyper cutter before gaining an offensive ability, toggling them gave them a cool new layer of stuff to use.

Also nerf the boosts to the BSTs so they’re not as absurdly powerful. Maybe make the boost +80 instead of +100

Given that Mega Evolutions are my favorite mechanic I wouldn't change too much, but I'd probably do the following things:

-Charizard and Mewtwo both only get the Y evolution (Charizard's Y form was revealed along with the other two starters form and looks more like the next logical step in Charizard's evolution line while Mewtwo-Y brings Mewtwo closer to Mew)
-If a pokemon's regular ability would serve the mega better, it can keep that ability instead (for example, M-Houndoom can have Flash Fire, M-Steelix gets Sheer Force and M-Audino can get Regenerator)
-Bring down Megagross and Megamence to the levels of the other pseudo legends (the -ate abilities give no damage buff, and Megagross keeps Clear Body)
-Rework Mega-Banette to make the most of it's design and redistribute it's attack amongst it's defenses so it can properly use prankster
-Make it so Mega Kang could never have learned Power-Up Punch in the first place, but let it keep Parental Bond unnerfed to compensate (re-nerf if it proves too strong still)
-Remove Perish Song from Gengar's movepool, but let it keep shadow tag even though I hate the damn thing because it's a fitting ability
-Make a few more megas, such as Flygon, Milotic, and more specifically a few for gens 4 and 5 such as Golurk
-Focus on tweaking and balancing Mega-Evolutions instead of adding new gimmicks to make them more balanced in comp play each gen
-Offer a battle spot mode that bans them outright so people who hate them don't need to bother with them
-Add a handful (like, 5 or less) each new gen, depending on who needs them the most

I know it's probably still broken but I think I fixed most things.

I'd also add Mega Clefable because I was hoping it'd get a mega back in gen 6 before it turned out not to need one, but in a OU where M-Gengar or M-Gross could be legal it'd be a fun idea.

I like this one a lot, but the meta will be cancerous for the period between XY and ORAS.
Remember that Houndoom isn't the only Mega Pokemon available.
Mega Lucario, Kangaskhan, and Mega Blaziken exists.
It'll be like fighting against a legendary every time they are sent out.
