I assume anyone that likes Megas is too young to be allowed entry to a bar.

Shilling. Anything else was an accident along the way.

They were considering new evolutions of classic Pokemon, but didn't want to make the changes permanent. So they came up with battle transformations instead.

I liked them. It's a nice way to handle some power imbalances in some old pokemon, while still appealing to pokemon that most people like.

It's basically 50/50 for popular and unpopular old mon.

to return SOUL to the games. too bad they opted to just cycle through yearly gimmicks instead of sticking with megas, maybe the brand's integrity wouldn't be in the toilet right now

Why not? Megas are inferior to new evos in every way with exception to being available for 3rd stage evos, which a lot of pokemon that got megas weren't.

To pander to based Kantochads by making the Mist Stones and Pokegods canon. Of course, they make DSzooms seethe, but that can't be helped- everything good makes DSzooms seethe.

It's pretty easy to mess up a pokemon through a cross gen evo. Things like Lickilicky are permanent and drastically change the idea of the original, whereas if it had a mega, you get to appreciate both designs.

That was never their intention. Mewtwo was the first reveal, with others like Charizard coming quickly after. Even in XY the only megas before the post-game were shillmons, Abomasnow in the story, and Ampharos. It was clear from the start what the actual goal was.

It's to display the power of the giants being so giant that it exceeds what Pokemon can naturally reach because pokemon are just a minuscule piece of the giants real power. hence they evolve beyond the limits that they don't manage to surpass and in such an exaggerated way it hurts them and gets them in an uncontrollably aggressive state.
