I just wish he got more moves, it was weirdly lacking in anything you would ever want with it pretty much only having Shift Gear, Gear Grind, a bunch of normal attacks, and a bunch of electric attacks. It should have at minimum had:
>Rapid Spin
>Flame Wheel
>Steamroller (the bug move lmao)
>Acrobatics
>Drill Run
>Stored Power
like at the bare minimum...

Among my favs, but 2 things hold it back
>wish it had just a few more gears, like I don't expect a fully functional mechanism but just the horizontal transmission into the spiked ring feels like it's incomplete
>it has no fucking moves or abilities, shift gear is cool but it doesn't matter if gear grind will miss and wild charge will make it kill itself

If either of those things were improved it would be so much better

Legends Delta maybe. Would be kino if they added some extra spiked rings and basically made it a rolling warmachine, bumping its Attack, Defense, and Speed primarily.

It was my favorite when I first played BW (14)
It unironically carried my ass. I somehow played the entire game thinking that it was a Steel/Electric type. Anyhow I think the gear monster still look kinda cool.

acrobatics would have been really cool because you get that right after beating Skyla after adding Klink to your team, so if you used him you could get a neat little upgrade for him as a surprise. And it would have been great coverage considering it would hit the grass types that resist electric and otherwise hit fighting and bug mons at least neutrally. Great animation too.

it's a sick mon to imagine being by your side considering it would have a ton of fun ways to interact with the environment; it could lift you up with its main gear, it could interact with random mechanisms as you walk around, it could grab onto things, it could float around you, all sorts of neat ways to interact that standard animal mons can't really do. Not to mention as far as I know no characters have it as an ace so it's more "yours" than many other mons are.

It got hit with a double dose of Gen 5 Syndrome (read: Minmaxed to hell and back + given the most limited moveset ever for the sake of """balance""")

It's been a staple in my Battle Masion team in Y and your options really are Shift Gear>Gear Grind/Wild Charge. You can do Facade too if you can get paralyzed but that's a gamble in it of itself. Why it never got any of the moves you listed is fucking enigma.

Do you think the Klinklang line would've been more popular or less hated if they made it related to Magearna like how Carbink is to Diancie? If they decided to make Klinklang and Magearna counterparts to Carbink and Diancie instead?

Some Carbink mutate into Diancie, so what if the lore instead was that Magearna was actually made from enhanced or retooled Klink gears or something?

Realistically, Magearna should also gain access to Gear Grind in the future considering her mega's design and attack animations
