Okay, but why big red head clamp? I have no fucking idea what they wanted to show, head protection? or some bullshit theme?

The clamp plus the spikes on the arms give him a second set of jaws while making him look like a giant Totodile. That's it.

The mega doesn't get rid of Feraligatr's original head anon.

it'll have the head piece pn most of the time. I definitely wish our first look at it was with the headpiece down, because we got too many reactionary faggots with no imagination running their fingers across their keyboards

They couldn’t have gone with something else? Instead we get some toy-like meme mega? Come the fuck on.

Simple answer op
Creatively bankrupt - and if you don't think so they will be in the future, there are only so many archetypes and inspirations in the world they can draw from it will be like a large scale creators block forcing them to draw design from cheap references OR strange abstract concepts bordering on schizophrenia that will go over the heads of 80% of the fan base
It's gonna get weird

Given the whole thing of megas just amplifying the Pokemon's original theme, the mega was always going to do something with its jaws. And honestly? I prefer this over just making his mouth bigger.

ironically I think it was supposed to relieve fans and show that his head isn't like in the earlier fake leak and that he still just looks like Feraligatr.

I'm not sure where you're getting that the headpiece will be down most of the time when that's not the case in all three pics we have, though.

I'm going to go full man child and admit that this design would make a fun as fuck toy that I'm actually excited to eventually buy.
This must be how it feels being a fan of most 80s franchises where you know most designs only exist to make a fun as fuck toy

Yeah, but they could’ve done it in a way that wasn’t bumfuck retarded. An oversized Totodile cosplay is the best they came up with? Seriously? Fire the fucking artists, or demote them. Utterly idiotic.

So basically the headpiece is an ugly hangnail most of the time. Awesome

You're saying IM the bankrupt one - that just because I can't possibly imagine being able to create anything new than it MUST mean that no one else can?
No, this series is around 30 yrs - that's a monumental achievement - but nothing last perpetually in a creative sense anon
The legacy of Pokémon is rigid and has crystallized
Something different or new has to happen

Of course it won't last forever, nothing does. But the idea that there are only so many things that can be made into Pokemon is absurd
