Why are Mega Evolutions so goddamn dumb?
>>
>>26707704
It should have been just a normal evolution. Holy shit.
>>
>>26707704
Because your mom never loved you anon
>>
>>26707712
It barely qualifies as any kind of evolution. The baby just grew a bit and got out of the pouch. Kangaskhan proper hasn't changed at all.
>>
>>26707704
>Mega Evolutions so goddamn dumb

You're not helping your case.
>>
>>26707704
Because it's a game mechanic in a Nepalese Cock-fighting simulator. What do you expect?
>>
>>26707728
Baby is still a part of this Pokemon, and it changes; it would be a cool evolution in my book.
Anyway, it's not unusual in evolution that Pokemon barely changes, look at Slowbro or Klinklang.

If you wanted to shit on mega evolutions you could have tried something people bash on a lot, like Mega Manectric.
>>

>defends Mom getting nothing
You're a special breed of cancer. I bet you like it when they remove features from Gens, too.
>>
>>26707838
Mom getting something is to be expected, anon. Having them throw a curve ball shows they still have a bit of creativity. They could have just added spikes and colors to the mother and you'd have been complaining about the design anyways. At least they decided to do something different, which is always welcome.
>>
It's the baby who mega evolves

Moms are selfless.

the mom evolves because she doesn't have to look after the kid and can fight no holds barred

Okay you dumb shits, give me a better MegaKanga design.
>>
>>26707904
Literally anything else
>>
>>26707908
A clever non-response :^)

Be more specific.
>>
>>26707838
But mom isn't the one mega-evolving. If she got something it would have been inconsistent.

The baby is the one that mega evolves.
>>
>>26707915
Then it isn't Mega Kangaskhan, dumbass.
>>
>>26707912
I am serious. Literally anything would be better. I could take a shit and it would be a better mega design.
>>
>>26707923
You still don't respond to my question.
>>
Mega Evolutions are literally half-baked Pokemon, they're just temporary upgrades to existing species and not supposed to look like new ones. Some designs are more inspired than others, and that can be used to describe Pokemon in general from the last few generations, so there's no point complaining about this exclusively.
>>
>>26707930
I was specific. A piece of shit is a better design. Do I need to write it out for you in crayon are you too retarded to even read at all.
>>
>>26707948
Oh wow, sure that was a very good response! What do you want now, a medal for shitposting?
>>
>>26707944
>literally defending Half-Baked Pokemon
Ban apologists when?
>>
>>26707904
I honestly would've preferred it to be left alone.
>>
>>26707958
Where exactly did I defend them?
>>
It really would have been better as regular evolution because

>Megaevolves
>The baby grows to a child
>Megaevolution ends
>The child goes back to babby-state

It's fucking stupid that the baby grows old and gets younger back and forth. At least he would fucking progress and stay at that age like a normal fucking child.
>>
>>26707990
>Mega Alakazam mega evolves
>Has 5 spoons
>Mega evolution ends
>Back to 2

This is how it works. The baby doesn't get older by the way, it only gets more powerful akin to Mega Lucario and its aura surge.
>>
>>26707704
That's what you get for ripping of PokeGods, making one "a thing" (demiurgic rather xD) during gen 4, in general idiotic management of the franchise

What have you expected? They needed to somehow fill the slots, the things didn't even got their own dex number lmoa
>>
>>26707815
That's the point you retard, the baby is the one that actually mega evolved.
>>
>>26708013
Bad comparison. Megaevolved Alakazam is such a powerful psychic that he can control 5 spoons that's why it goes back to 2 spoons.

Source please. That sounds very far fetched explanation and is a band-aid explanation to the bullshit I proposed at best.
>>
>>26707712
all megas should have been normal evolutions

mega evolutions means we'll never get a new evolution for any pre-existing pokemon, ala Tangrowth, etc
>>
>>26707922
But the baby is a Kangaskhan.
>>
>>26708054
>Source please. That sounds very far fetched explanation
For what, Mega Lucario's aura?

>Its aura heightens throughout its body, which formed black markings on its blue fur.[
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Lucario_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29

It used to be here http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Lucario but for some reason the website is not working properly.

What I'm trying to say is, Mega Evolutions are just a power surge like super saiyans. Thus they get bigger, stronger, have extra stuff, but revert back to the base form. In Kangaskhan's case, the baby gets the extra power and becomes capable of fighting while the mega evolution lasts.
>>
>>26708088
>Used to
Nevermind my internet was acting on me. Yes there it is, just below Mega Lucario's pic.
>>
>>26707815
>Not loving the fact that mom gave the stone to a baby so it finaly can battle
>>
>>26708115
So she makes her babby temporarily stronger just so she doesn't need to protect it anymore? What a lazy shit mom. If anything she should have just made herself a lot stronger so she would be even BETTER at protecting her offpsring. What a retarded megaevo indeed.
>>
Because they're gimmicks, created for no other reason then a useless addition.
The only people where cares for them are people who go competitive.
IMO I like travelling around to gather all the Mega Stones due to what they add to the meta game.
Aside from the part with Corrina and the Lucario's, I never used Mega evolutions.
I'd rather not be base but is really reminds me of Digimon, regression of evolution and all.
Make it permanent and I'll find it acceptable.

Which is only a thing in the anime, even.
>>
>>26707704

except that's one of the best uses of Mega evolution
>>
>>26708838
I'm unsure of the Anime as I find this new series hard to watch, my bad I should have said I was basing my opinion on the games.

Are you serious?This was one of the more creative and interesting ones. Then they have shit like Mega Sableye that's basically just a bigger Sableye even thougih there were so many creative things to do with it.
>>

correct and well typed out.

agree 100 percent

This, unfortunately it is the one gimmick that won't be removed in future games.

Would have been better if it was just a normal evolution and not a Mega desu.
>>
>>26708057
>mega evolutions means we'll never get a new evolution for any pre-existing pokemon, ala Tangrowth, etc
It's been exactly...0 gens since Mega Evolutions were introduced. Will you people stop posting this shit?

Even if S/M ended up having no evolutions of preexisting Pokemon that still wouldn't prove anything.
>>
>>26710061
lot of those don't need one, they already look "adult"
the only one I would make the mega a normal evolution are sableye and mawile
>>
>>26711374
sableye isnt even evo material
>>
Because of Spectacle Creep
>>
If mega evolutions had been relegated to otherwise pretty useless pokemon I'd be perfectly happy. But then, I think Mega Beedrill is one of the coolest pokemon designs ever.
>>
>>26710898
Welcome newfriend. I hope everyone is treating you well on your first day.
