Lets have a mega change thread.
What megas do you hate?
What would you change to fix them?
>>24844061
But Manetric is the best mega! Shit like Charizard Y needs to be redesigned.
>>24844061
Congratulations fag, you made it worse.
venusaur's plant gets bigger but it's hard to notice so that should be fixed
Mega Tyranitar's shoulder spikes should be bigger. Making it silver like Pupitar would also be nice.
I hate Mega Salamence's everything.
>>24844072
Worst taste confirmed
Make mega manectrc look even more like Ponygon with Go Shudoruk active.
I don't like how mega Latias and Latios look exactly the same. I'm not sure how to fix them ,though.
Any ideas for how to make their designed different?
>>24844452
You could make them not purple. Take away the big arms on Latios to accentuate Latias's bulk. Take away/redesign the tail parts on Latias to accentuate Latios's speed and power.
>>24844072
Gross.
>>24844452
Just make them darker shades of the blue and red of their normal forms.
remove latiosite and latiasite
they now mega evolve with the soul dew
I hate any mega that, like Mega Manectric, depends of Hidden Power to be viable.
Competitively speaking, this would fix a few megas:
>Steelix
HP: 75
Atk: 85 + 50 = 135
Def: 200 + 20 = 220
SpA: 55
SpD: 65 + 40 = 105
Spe: 30 - 10 = 20
Ability: Basically anything that's not Sand Force. Solid Rock, Intimidate, Arena Trap, Magnet Pull, Defiant, Heatproof, Mold Breaker, just off the top of my head. Fucking should have learned with Mega Garchomp.
>Mega Banette
HP: 64
Atk: 115 + 60 = 175
Def: 65 + 15 = 80
SpA: 83
SpD: 93
Spe: 65 + 25 = 90
Ability: Tough Claws, Moxie, signature ability called Voodoo: inbuilt destiny bond
I don't really hate any mega, but I think Gyarados would look better with a longer body and Sharpedo would be better without the yellow marks.
As for competitive use, Audino should have regenerator and Steelix should have magnet pull.
>>24844452
I'd put their wings on their backs. I don't get how anyone thought moving them onto their arms looked good.
>>24844061
Mega Lucario's ability bothers me for two reasons.
First, it's named Adaptability, which sounds like it would be a jack-of-all-trades ability, adapting to situations where you don't normally have an advantage. Instead it makes you better at what you already do all the time. If it had the opposite effect, giving STAB for all types, the name would make sense.
Second, the super-STAB is just plain uninspired, like fan megas giving everything Huge Power. Almost any pokémon would benefit greatly from Adaptability, there's nothing distinctly Lucario about it.
If I could change Mega Lucario, I would either give it Mega Launcher (naturally learns three of six relevant moves, can learn two more by TM and tutor), or add more spikes to its model and give it Iron Barbs.
>>24846067
Iron Barbs would be fuckign shit
Adaptability suits Luke.
>>24844061
>>24846104
lel
>>24846096
Way to read the reasons for my opinion, retard.
Adaptability is generic as hell and "suits" literally every pokémon with damaging moves.
Mega Launcher encourages using an uncommon moveset, and Iron Barbs has style that fits Lucario's design.
I don't give a shit if that would make an already decent pokémon a bit less competitively viable.
solar power is shit. give it sheer force
>fire blast/flamethrower/etc
>dark pulse
>sludge bomb
>shadow ball
>>24846511
>this faggot again
there is absolutely no reason for it to use shadow ball you fucking scrub
>>24846549
>>24846511
also, it would make mega camerupt even more irrelevant.
>>24846551
Mega Camperupt's already good with TR-based stats, differential defenses, and Ground-type STAB and affinities.
If people want a fast Sheer Force Pokemon that isn't borderline broken trash like Landorus, let them have it.
>>24846038
Banette has no attacking moves. Shadow Claw, Sucker Punch and Gunk Shot are not enough
>>24846551
You must only play singles
You must also be 12 if you think the relevance of a Pokemom makes it any better or worse
I really dislike mega Aerodactl since the face is changed so much by the rock eyebrows. goatee, sideburns, small change to the mouth. Remove those and maybe change so they have hands again. After I think it would be fine.
>>24846569
>Mega Camperupt's already good
no, it isn't. not under any circumstances. not even trick room.
sheer force houndoom WOULD be borderline broken, especially with nasty plot.
Fix Mega Houndoom bygiving base houndoom drought
>>24846598
>guys help
>i've never actually tried mega camerupt's good bulk and sf-boosted attacks in trick room
And considering Houndoom minds faster Earthquakes (i.e. Scarf Landorus-T and Garchomp), Smogonbird Brave Bird a lot more than Landorus, and finds little opportunities to use Nasty Plot, it's really not that broken.
>>24846618
camerupt also minds faster earthquakes, i.e. all earthquakes. it only appears bulky on paper, but it's bulk is average at best, it has no recovery, and it pretty much always has to take damage or sac something to come out. and sheer force hits hard, but it's rarely an OHKO, and it can't afford to boost or even carry boosts.
so not only is it average in trick room, but trick room itself is a shitty gimmick that only works in low ladder.
>>24846549
that's true. i was just mindlessly listing its moves that sheer force would effect. still, it's a good ability for it.
>>24846668
trick room is a viable strategyin doubles
Haunter hands, Gastly's smoke. The idea is that it's halfway through the ground.
I suck at photoshop but that's my concept.
>>24844061
Houndooms mega should've been a normal evolution
>>24846104
That actually looks cool
>>24846853
I think Gengar's problem is the third eye. It looks like a grade schooler's attempt at an eye and it's incredibly jarring. Maybe if it were a half closed red eye it'd be better.
>>24848111
Judging by his ability, I think the eye is based on these things.
