are you mistakegay? you type just like him and your opinions are just as vapid as his.
cross gen evos ruined this franchise, ever since gen 2, gamefreak has been obsessed with rehashing mons from older gens in the laziest ways possible
this is wrong because gens 3 and 5 had plenty of original designs. azurill and wynaut were the only exceptions
Needs pants.
agreed.
spriting skills be damned, he now has pants.
>Doesn't use the worst Mega as an example
> since gen 6, gamefreak has been obsessed with rehashing mons from older gens in the laziest ways possible
yeah because after gen 5 they realized literally no one likes the “rehash from older gen except give it a way fricking uglier and more forgettable design” approach
Nah most of gen 5's mons were good.
>dark-skinned cotton plant
>opposite version counterpart is a light-skinned southern belle
How did Gamefreak get away with this?
Well no shit every pokedex can be good if you post the only good designs duh
>posts one of the worst
they ruined the older pokemon with shit designs. why couldn't they just get 100 added to their BST without the design (minus ones like Garchomp and Tyranitar that already had high BSTs of course) ? i ahve nothing againt buffing shitmons. i am all for that, but i do NOT want shitty designs being attatched to their buffs. megas are no better than gigantamax and regional variants
are you asking why mega evolution couldn't have just been a raw stat buff with no need to hold an item and no once-per-battle restriction?
yes, exactly. Mawile and Sableye for example already had really low BSTs. 480 would be good for them. like i said before, some mons like Garchomp and Tyranitar already had high BSTs so those mons were fine as they were already. of course they shouldn't just increase the BSTs of random mons that don't need them
>yes, exactly.
lol
tell me why you disagree then. what is wrong with Mawile and Sabeleye having 480 as their normal BST when plenty of mons already have that as their BST normaly, or sometimes even higher than that
they're early game mons that aren't locked behind evolution and their mega stat spreads are ridiculously minmaxed for that role
>they're early game mons that aren't locked behind evolution
480 is not that broken of a BST for an early game mon. Nidoking and Nidoqueen have even higher BSTs are you can get them before the second gym in gen 1
>stat spreads are ridiculously minmaxed for that role
not something that would break the game
BST is nowhere near as important as stat spread and Mega Mawile and Mega Sableye are both way too minmaxed for when you get them.
>Nidoking and Nidoqueen have even higher BSTs are you can get them before the second gym in gen 1
Only by investing a rare and non-renewable evolution stone AND giving up their future level-up moves.
level up moves are dogshit in gen 1 for ALL mons. nobody plays that game without using any of the TMs
Their level up moves in Gen 1 suck, you're not missing out on anything
Does giving 20 in Special Defense for Rhyperior too much?
i actually agree that Rhydon/Rhyperior should have a better Special Defense stat for how slow it is and how shitty it's defensive typing is
You could also give the Protector an good effect that only works if any of the Rhynos hold it (Like the Thick Club doubling Cubone and Marowak's Attack)
that's also a good idea. it should also apply to other evolution items that don't have in battle effects, that way they serve more of a purpose and the game doesn't feel so bloated with items. this will be an unpopular opinion but i think Rhydon/Rhyperior with an increased Special Attack instead of Special Defense could also be interesting. i hate that they get all those special attacks but they can't really use them. pokemon needs more mixed attackers
Blame the Gen 1 Wacky Movepools for that.
Maybe it could boost both the Special Attack and Special Defense? Something more technical would be that the Special Stats will mirror the Physical Stats. (A Rhydon fully invested in Attack with max EV in Defense has 394 Attack and 339 Defense. If it holds the item, the Special Attack and Special Defense will be the exact same as their physical counterpart, investments included. Same with Rhyperior. With the same investments as Rhydon and holding the Protector, it would have 416 in Attack and Special Attack + 359 in Defense and Special Defense)
Megas were the shit and we deserve more
Gen5 was good and you better start getting used to the idea it's remake will be better
Gen3 and 4 suck and set the bar low
Dyna and gigata were bad
Not an argument don't bother arguing you don't have an argument
Variants are genuinely a better idea than just making new Pokémon forever. Gen 5 dex failed partially because the total roster was becoming bloated.
No, variants just enable gamefreak to be lazy. the gen 5 dex is good
>variants just enable gamefreak to be lazy.
Not really, variants are only an issue if you do it like this. The way GF does it they have actual visual differences.
>The way GF does it they have actual visual differences.
lol
surfer hair in a hawaii region is fine
Anything that isn't making new Pokemon enables Game Freak to be lazy.
correct, that is why i am against regional variants, paradox mons, gigantamax mons, and convergent evolutions in addition to mega evolutions
You forgot cross-hen evos )from Sylveon to Archaludon).
Digimon is a bad comparison, honestly. Pokémon as a concept works better when everything feels naturally occurring within the confines of the setting. Digimon has multiple sets of lore and different justifications for more pseudo-meta occurrences.
and yet these are still better than mega evolutions and any all the other bullshit that uses older mons as a bse for a new design
I'm a biggest Gayfreak hater by myself and I hate you so much.
>and I hate you so much
why?
I like Mega Evos. Especially because the only natural Shiny I ever got was ralts as a kid, so it was fun being able to use one of my favorites. The biggest problem I have with Megas is the fact that I feel it should have been restricted from psuedo legendaries and real legendaries (even if they do call it something else for the Hoenn legendaries, it's pretty much the same thing), since they already get enough usage already.
Megas were what if you told a south american deviantart Dragon Ball AF "artist" to make evolutions.
Every single one of them was ugly as frick.
Instead of adding evolution to a pokemon and rendering it redundant like they did with Bisharp, they should just give it a 100 BST boost instead.
>590 BST Bisharp
>615 BST Porygon 2
>635 BST Duraludon
No fricking way bro.
Are you really implying this baby mon looks good?
Mega evolutions are the Pokemon equivalent of SSJ5 Goku.
Literal fanfiction.

While the idea of megas was cool, it's fricked how so many pokemon that COULD have used it got fricked in the ass while pokemon that didn't need it, got one. From a mechanical standpoint, Z-moves and Tera are better because it doesn't really matter who gets it. Everyone can use it (as long as you have the item for Z-Moves) and it makes it more fair for every pokemon. If a gimmick were to return (which I know it won't) it should at least be Tera.
If anything they ruined Pokemon because no other gimmick could be as cool
there is no way you two started with a game older than XY
Never heard of it, whats that "mega evolution" you speak of? From where I came from we just have Terastalization
Read “Occulture.” The issues on Roaring Moon and Iron Valiant. It’s like that but you need a special stone to get them.
idc new pokemon ar edogshit since gen 5 , gen 4 was the only good dex
Mega evolution is peak kino, easily one of the best things ever added to pokemon
> Let's take Sharpedo and make it even cooler!
Mega evolution was NOT a mistake.
However...
> Let's take Gardevoir and Gallade then make a transgender fusion of them!
Paradox mons were a GIANT mistake.
That's not what transgender means.
I mean Gardevoir can be male right too, right? But then again, nobody give a damn about male Gardes.
Mega evolution did ruined this franchise, but not because of rehashing old pokemon (which I'll admit it does get old after a while). It ruined this franchise by forcing every new gen to have a forced battle gimmick that'll be abandoned by the next gen along side more tutorials of it. And with SwSh, every gen going forward will have broken raid system center around these gimmicks that'll become barren wastelands the moment a new gen is released.
mistakebro could as well be from the sharty for how easily he gets (You)'s by posting the same dogshit over and over on a regular basis
