Dynamax and Megas are only similar in that they come from regions based on European countries, and Gigantamax forms change their models.

If anything, Dynamax is closer to Z-moves, but removes so much about what made Z-moves so fun.

That's precisely the best part about Megas, it doesn't just benefit the strongest Pokémon and does not really have any unforeseeable consequences.

Anyone can dmax and get the dmax moves, and get the 3 turn HP boost. If you favor megas for the sake of game balance you must either have a hard time in cart singles or may have a skewed perspective.

Hey, I never said it was perfectly handled, but it still was handed out to weak Pokémon more often than not. Even something like Metagross that is often cited as an "undeserving" mega actually fell to utter irrelevance prior of gaining access to it.

Not everyone was weak or unpopular. An attempt was made to give weaker Pokemon an edge, but simultaniously by existing along side bigger more threatening Pokemon who can Dmax not many of them saw the light of day. Part of it was a big kaaaantoooo pander too, XY megas especially.

Not the same anon but those 4 weren't really amazing without megas. One was dicked by type changes and the others were just not good enough.

Gen VI changed metagross so much that it wasn't even UU. Mega made it obnoxious tho.

Mence was stuck in UUBL limbo because latis and garchomp were much better. Mega fixed mence's biggest flaw that was having fly as it's flying stab while giving incredibly balanced stats with a big speed boost.

Lucario is fucking terrible. Never saw a mon that needed setup so badly before. Then mega turned it on a "Parental Bond Terrakion with a Keldeo Launcher and a Starmie strapped on it's back".

Was Garde OU at any point? I seriously don't remember that. Kinda forgettable Mega but still on the stronger side.

That list is legit shitmon fiesta. Without megas those are suffer from powercreep or are just plainly bad.

Megas did breath new life on shitmons, who ever thought about using Beedrill or Pinsir in OU before megas?

Some sadly stayed bad even with mega like steelix, audino, houndoom, camerupt, abomasnow.

Even some strong mons got mediocre or outright terrible megas like blaziken, tyranitar, latios and garchomp. 3 of those get better results with other items while 1 actually gets worse.

No, they didn't, because there's no reason to ever use anything that isn't named Kangaskhan, Salamence, Metagross, or Gengar.

Explain why Lucario and Gardevoir are nowhere to be seen in gen 8 OU, with less competition, no megas or battle gimmicks period. Could it be because they are actually relatively underpowered Pokémon?

Or actually want the game to make sense. No matter what you say Gigantamax is the same as Mega evolutions are because they aren't applied to all pokemon. Leave the pokemon that have megas keep their megas as you are right, they obtained legendary status and should keep it.

>They would turn a shitmon into something useful and with them gone, it just leaves a gaping whole in the game.
There are dozens of ways shitmons can become useful. Torkoal is now useful because it has Drought. Clefable is now useful because it got a type change and a stat buff. Blastoise is now useful because it got Shell Smash. Charizard is now useful because there are barely any other Fire-types in the game. Introducing a retarded gimmick just to ""buff shitmons"" when in reality it just makes the game even more fucking unbalanced is stupid as fuck.

>>"Why the fuck would we do that?"
Yeah, why would they be cheap fucks and reuse designs that don't fit the point of Gigantamax at all?

No, because Gigantamax Pokemon don't just get upscaled.

Gmaxing is just "Dynamax +" only in the absolute loosest of senses. The difference is cosmetic bar 1 type of move. Pokemon doesnt get a mega? It misses out on a MASSIVE stat increase and potential ability buffs. If a Pokemon does not Gmax it does not at all automatically make it inferior, quite the opposite in fact as previously mentioned a Gmax move can be a curse if it stops a good dmax move effect when you wpuld have had it to begin with.
To compare the two as features exclusive to Pokemon for how unfair it is is apples and oranges here.

Except like I said, by it's creation, regardless of what you want, there are pokemon who can't be as good. As some have Gigantamax, an advantage no matter your personal opinion on it, and some don't. Don't expose your "this makes everything equal" as it doesn't. The pokemon who get Gigantamax get their own personal z-moves. An advantage not open to all pokemon. And to heck with the argument of permanent in battle for megas, as if you couldn't plan or play around them you probably weren't very good to begin with.

Of course we are. Though I don't think you understand that since you keep listing irrelevant Pokemon.

What did you mean by this then? You said no-one uses these Pokemon, which is straight bullshit. What counts as the "actual game" to you?
