Simple capitalistic greed combined with simultaneously ignoring & taking advantage of a worldwide, mixed age group, conglomerate hive-mind fanbase.

I thought more designs would translate to more toys. Why would you choose to design new mons instead of improving existing ones?

To subvert expectations and make megafags want them.

GF knows how much people want them back and the longer they hold them back from returning the more money ppl will be willing to pay for any game that has them.

And they will milk this cashcow as long as they can, fueling fire by shilling megas in ither media like anime, GO, Mastersex and even designing some mons like Paradox based on them.

Retards threw a shitfit because their favorite shitmons like Stantler didn't get megas, so they ditched it for garbage gimmicks like dilatemax.

>Imagine not playing with friends on cart >Imagine not having a blast making a lot of teams to feature non meta megas
>Picture not being in college, having a blast with genwuners that came back into the game because Gen 6 made Pokémon cool again
>Imagine not living during a second wave of pokemania

Can't relate bro, megas came at a time where forums and social media Co-existed, fuck it there are still Facebook groups and forums dedicated to playing the game if you know where to look, I pity the fools that couldn't enjoy the mega format

Megas were terrible
Only certain Pokemon could use it
Half of them were very ugly
Half of the ones that looked okay were competitively usable
Took up held item slot, reducing creativity

Name ONE good thing about megas.
