We all know in two years or so Gamefreak is going to drop dynamaxing for "balance" and introduce some new gimmick.
Now imagine at some point down the road Gamefreak has some new ambitious and passionate leadership who decides to bring back all the Pokemon again. But this brings up an issue: many designs are tied to gimmicks like megas, z-moves, and gigantamaxing. How would you bring back these designs without necessarily bringing back the gimmick?
The idea I am putting forward is to turn these designs into forms. Same stats, but new appearances and typings and abilities in some cases.
For people who really liked megas, I suppose there answer would be to just bring back megas and turn all the other forms into new megas for their respective mons.
Another thought would be just to turn all of these lost gimmick designs into real evolutions and break the 3 stage rule that has been part of Pokemon since its inception.
I suppose I would be fine with any of these suggestions, but tell me anons, what do you think?
I like gigantamax Sandaconda's design and while I hate the dynamax gimmick for many reasons I don't necessarily want these designs purged when the gimmick is deleted.
