Soon enough since gamefreak realized ZA was a fiasco because they used unpopular shitters as starters over serperior lol

How does that make sense? Even if king that they don’t know how to make megas anymore considering the embarrassment that is skibidigatr shouldn’t it be the other way around likes it’s always been.

I don't get gamefreaks logic in general.

Why did Scovillian get a Mega? No one gives a shit about it.
Why did Audino get a Mega? No one gives a shit about it.
Why didn't they give Typhosion a Mega? Is he just fucked forever?
Why not give Infernape, a far more popular Pokemon than Emboar, a Mega instead of the least popular fire starter?
Why does Absol need two Megas? I don't recall it even being that popular? Give a Mega to someone that actually needs it.
Why did it take over 10 YEARS to give Dragonite a Mega despite XY pandering to Kantoooo back in the day?
Snivy, arguably the MOST POPULAR starter of the Unova trio still has jack shit....because?

etc etc

They’re a random dev’s favorite
>Why didn't they give Typhosion a Mega? Is he just fucked forever?
Typhlosion is game freak’s most hated starter, it was created out of spite but game freak was too stupid it backfired and some people actuallt liked typhlosion, so they’ve been going out of their way to sabatoge it ever since as punishment
>Why not give Infernape, a far more popular Pokemon than Emboar, a Mega instead of the least popular fire starter?
The Sinnoh starters are too iconic to break up, they may very well get something broken next gen
>Why does Absol need two Megas? I don't recall it even being that popular?
It’s an industry plant.
>Why did it take over 10 YEARS to give Dragonite a Mega despite XY pandering to Kantoooo back in the day?
Because CHARIZARD cannibalized most of the dragon related stuff that would go to a Kantomon

I unironically think Sinnoh is the most beloved gen by the devs so they're putting off megas for the starters not out of neglect but either out of purity or because they want to make them as perfect as possible

Can anyone legitimately explain the thought process behind this? In general, a lot of times it feels like GF chooses random shitmons to give Megas to. Who really wanted Mega Obama, when instead they could have given to something like Milotic?

If there are starters in Legends Galar and that game brings special Gigantamax forms for it's starters one of them better fucking be Torterra. It makes too much sense, but then again this is GF, so it'll probably be something else.

Because that's the point of megas. You guys are too blinded by Charizard and Lucario pandering to realize that megas were made to help overlooked, underpowered mons.

But then you run into the problem of leaving other starters behind power-wise/competitively like the Sinnoh Trio, Snivy and Primarina. I would have said Incineroar doesn't have a special form either but at least he's good in VGC.

This poll is setup differently and was also 5 years ago. iirc you could vote multiple times as well, so it’s a shaky way of demonstrating overall popularity.

It absolutely doesn't need it. Mega Emboar and Hisuian Typhlosion are very close to being absolutely useless. The most relevant form, Hisuian Samurott (which does absolutely nothing to help the original), is only barely close to the 13 years of dominance that Contrary gave Serperior. I wish my favorite pokemon could be amazing without a different appearance. I wish my very first starter could one day be viable competitively. Eat shit you ungratefully smug snake.

Actually, disregard what I've just said. I'm rooting for a G-Max form. They're usually sidegrades at best, but with Serperior, there's a rather big incentive to not immediately trigger it so that you can get +2. The D-Max moves everywhere also makes Contrary a pretty useful ability. It doesn't really get non Grass or Dragon moves (bringing Wring Out back would unironically be an improvement) so it'd be a bit limited, but that means that the effects to it's signature G-Max move might be really cool. I'm sorry for hating on you snake bros.
