I don't think Megas are going to be gone forever, just not in this game since there is Dynamax. I could see the next game not having Dynamax but bringing Megas back.
What if a Kalos tourist catches a raid Pokémon, equips it with a Mega stone, gygantomaxes it, and then mega-evolves? 🤔
Why introduce a feature and take it away I hate when game freak does this
We'll get AZ's Floette(legally) one day.
Maybe they'll have to leave it at the border alongside their unauthorized pokemon
The lore was interesting though
Agreed that Fairy needs a nerf. You have so many absurd Fairy type combos that cancel out one or both of the type's weaknesses (most obviously Steel/Fairy), and absurd Fairy type Pokémon like the Tapus.I think the change I want to see most is nerfing/fixing Fairy type. I thought Fairy type was a good idea when they debuted in XY but two gens later I think they whiffed the execution.
Their strengths/weaknesses are probably the least intuitive of the 18 types, and the nerf to Dragon type was too much.
Change resistance to Dragon from 0x to .5x, and give them a third weakness, to Fire maybe (since Fire already resists Fairy for some reason, it would make their type chart easier to remember, and Stealth Rock makes Fire types useless already so maybe this will buff Fire enough), or maybe to Bug type to stick with the theme of "Fairy is only weak to the shittiest attacking types."

Things like this remind me that Sinnoh remakes are next. Gigantimaxed Dialga and Palkia. Like what will they be like?

I doubt they're gonna keep stacking mechanics on top of stacking stuff forever. I get where the expectation comes from but I think it's okay for each set of titles to have their own identity.Why introduce a feature and take it away I hate when game freak does this
I'm not really a fan of immunities, but I think Grass resisting Fairy would make a lot of sense. Though I'm not sure how useful that would actually be, a lot of Grass-types are also Poison or learn Poison-type moves, so they already have something to counter Fairy-types.What if we both nerfed Fairy while buffing Grass by giving grass immunity to Fairy type with the reasoning of fairies being tied to green nature?

If they brought the mechanic back it would be whatever ones in that regional dex I guess, just like with Let's Go

Its no consipracy hear me out:Conspiracy theories aside, yeah, I think the explanation that the energy from a mega stone and the energy from the spots that allow Gigantamax being the same or similar kinds of energy works.
Only some Pokemon can access it because they are found in the Ley Line Dimension found in raid spots, so theh are born with the power within them already.But Gigantamax won't be available for everyone. How will they explain that some Charizard get the Gigantamax / Mega form, but others just become a big Charizard? Or that some become the X and others the Y?
Also, in the technical aspect, we've seen Gigantamax Pokémon have their official artwork and are classified as "Gigantamax Alcremie", "Gigantamax Drednaw" how are they gonna treat Mega Gigantamax forms? I just don't see them re-naming Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y as Gigantamax Charizard X and Gigantamax Charizard Y. It makes more sense that there is just a Gigantamax Charizard, with a whole new design. It's as if they suddenly treated Deoxys' formes as Mega Deoxys Speed or Mega Deoxys Defense in Gen V. I suppose they're even trademarked as Mega [name of the Pokémon]. And I don't see them either going for the route of "Charizard gigantamaxes to a Mega Charizard X."
I mean, anything is possible and they can do whatever they want without giving any explanation (like how they never explained the selection of Pokémon that can Mega-evolve) but I just don't see them re-naming or completely changing the purpose or even the name of past concept that is already tied to a design and some sort of form classification.
I miss inverse battles. Avalugg in an inverse battle during Trick Room, a speedy tank.^5
Im trying to make an Avalugg ready for transfer for SwSh and Im weeping at how sad this huge glacier is
Like why would you make a slow ass defensive ice mon
It's so depressing
lol me too. Maybe they will still be in postgame, but during the stream they made it seem like they were gone.I really want to take on someone's force of nature Gigantamax Pokémon with one of my unstoppable Mega's.
Buff Ice by making it resist Fairy.
Make it resist literally anything else. It's pathetic
Yeah, like in Gen 3 Aggron was my boy...until a fighting type came along and I got him the fuck out of thereI'm fine with there being shit attack and shit defense types, because that's just a fine thing to have, but for Ice and Rock being poo defensive types is so counter intuitive, and they design all the Ice and Rock type Pokemon as big tanky things but their typing blows.
If they are going to cut Pokemon they might as well trim down some of the redundant moves and do more tweaking to moves, but I don't think they should strip moves from Pokemon just to take utility away from them.The movepools should be heavily cut down and completely redone. Everyone would lose their shit and start movexit or whatever, but they all can learn too many things and it makes a lot of pokemon samey or redundant or makes entire types pointless. Why can everything learn toxic, anyway?
I'm in a Pokemon mood and very close to picking up Ultra Moon, never bothered with the Ultra versions
But I like the flavor of the different moves.
As someone who designs Fakemon I've realized how some moves are given for flavor over substance which is fine.
ExactlyThere don't need to be less moves, Pokemon need to learn less moves.
I'm still surprised leafage wasn't made a special attack. There should be a low level special grass attack other than absorbIt's why I wish we had some more weaker moves like Leafage for certain Pokemon for flavor.
I'm glad Grookey seemingly gets his own move in that Stick Strike over just tossing on Razor Leaf or Vine Whip.
Ugh, please no.
Bug needs a buff too, it's probably the worst offensive type. Why does Fairy resist Bug?
