So you mean to tell me that they removed Mega Evolution for Gigantamaxing which is just Mega Evolution on a turn limit?

Why didn't Gay Frak just put a turn limit on mega evolutions?

>but now everyone can get super strong OP shut the fuck up

Dynamaxing could've been something like the Awakening Emeras from PSMD, gives the Mons who don't Mega Evolve big stat boosts.

Mega Evolution didn't have to die for this.

Don't worry, dymaxing will get the boot in favour of another gimmick next gen.

Now that I think about it, Dynamaxing could've been an off-shoot of the Totem boost from Alola, which hilariously enough already made Pokemon bigger than their usual size.
This is starting to become my most dissapointing aspect of Sword/Shield. Gamefreak really should give the introduction of new gimmicks a rest and focus on what they have. It's sad that they think gimmicks are the only way to establish and flesh out a new region's identity these days, as I believe that's the main reason they feel compelled to do this.

If the logic was "everyone has a mega" just make one generic mega stone that gives the pokemon "mega aura'

Years ago I never considered the possibility that Gatr would never get a mega.

It's not really like mega evolution at all. The only thing they have in common is
>Pokemon gets stronger and sometimes changes shape
Mega Evolution:
>Requires sacrificing your item slot, can only be used by select pokemon, gives them specific stat increases, gives them new abilities or types at times, and doesn't have a time limit
While Dynamax:
>Has no item requirement, any pokemon can do it, gives them a flat stat multiplier, gives them modified moves to use, sometimes changes their shape and gives them a specific modified move, and lasts 3 turns

They're kinda night and day mechanically.
