>>49956629>I could see them thinking that it joining AZ's battle with you at the end of the game as being a pretty good idea, and then deciding that it's not such a good idea because of how it could conflict with the themes surrounding AZ's backstory.Except what you're saying doesn't agree with his implication at all.
AZ's Floette only would have made sense as a giftmon in a Z version where AZ actually appears. There was no Z, therefore it was never released.
But you can't turn around and try to headcanon that it was never meant to be released. Else they wouldn't have gone out of their way to give it a Pokedex entry a whole gen afterwards.
and by the way, ignore that idiot. He's the same retard that keeps spamming that megas are never coming back because "they didn't bring back asspull in the anime" or that they were totally "leading up to GMAX Pikachu vs GMAX Charizard", to which both assessments ended up being false anyway.
All of this back and forth will be extremely ironic anyway when E-Floette gets released in SV and gimmicktards finally shut up about trying to conflate megas with the regional gimmicks.
