Anyone who was dying for Megas to return is almost certainly under 25, what makes them love it so much?

I don’t care for Megas but it’s easy to see why

Because the truth is that Digimon was always cooler.

Im a zoomer and I hate megas... The majority of megas get a good design and make it significantly worse

The few good megas there are (Blaziken, Banette, MAYBE Mewtwo Y) arent worth all the dogshit ones

everyone likes megas and they're the only good battle gimmick in terms of aesthetic consideration

No it sucks ass. Especially cause only shillmons got it instead of shitmons that actually needed it (like Sableye)

>Fits in with the notion of Pokemon being highly adaptable and susceptible to change with different energy sources (Trading, Evolution stones, etc...) present in the beginning
>An inherently cooler angle of approach, along the lines of Gen 1's focus on cool collectible battle monsters
>A temporary power up akin to DBZ super saiyans, similar to Toriyama's obvious aesthetic influence on Sugimori's art style, especially in Gen 1
>A focus on Gen 1 mons, with visual callbacks to their original/evolution lines designs (ex: Charizard Y's back spike, just like Gen 1 Charmander)
>Even retroactively gives Red a Mega Charizard X to pit against Mewtwo, pleasing the Gen 1 fans of some of the most popular Pokemon in franchise history

I see OP is a zoomer in disguise

No they're all bad. Megas are just the least ugly of the bunch, which isn't saying a lot when shitters like mega aerodactyl and glalie exist

I'm a boomer who bought Red day 1, and X/Y are my least favorite games, and I still want megas back. Why wouldn't I?

No seriously, why shouldn't megas return? They already did once, twice if you count Go

because they're a soulless way for Gamefreak to shill and market their games. Plus they inspired future retarded shit like Z-Moves, Dynamax, and Terrastalizing.

Because Mega Evolution horribly distorts the Pokémons bodys in excruciatingly agomizing ways, which makes my dick diamonds.

yea bro, the super saiyan Pokemon concept was made for men, but Pokemon getting big or doing a powerful move? Well that's obviously for children.

agree but I think the execution for most megas was lackluster

houndoom's was quite uncreative; I would have rather it got two more heads to be a cerberus
