Honestly Mega Evolutions should be removed. I mean, they're cool and all, but they make the game a total joke. I know Pokémon isn't supposed to be a challenging game, but still.

Why? I thought it was an interesting new feature that added an extra layer of strategy to battling.

They're just so overpowered. I think they should be removed or the concept should change, because they're part of the problem of why we ended up with shit like this:



Even if Megas weren't around, the championships would still have the same Pokemon in every team because people use what works.

Well disregard what I said then, I might just be blinded with nostalgia for the good old days pre-X/Y.

Nope, was just a 3DS direct

Which is odd, because we're at 6 months from the NX it seems.

Some questions about Z-moves:
- Will it be possible to use both a mega evo and a Z-move on the same team in the same battle? If so that could potentially fuck up teambuilding.
- Are Z-moves limited to one Z-move per Pokemon per battle, or one Z-move per team per battle? Hopefully it's the latter, because that would be much more tolerable. Z-moves could be good for ending the current stall meta, but too many of them and it just becomes cancerous.

IIRC you can only use a Z move once in the entire battle. I'm guessing you can have a few different Pokemon with a Z move, but you can only use the one.

The way the Z-ring works, I think they're having it so you can only have one Pokémon with a Z-move at a time.

But yeah--nothing is gonna make me like the idea of a free kill move. It just seems inherently toxic.

You know I'd like those trainer moves a lot more if they didn't have that permanent smile stuck on their faces. What happened to the older games when they looked serious? Even in Black/White when fighting your rival and the champion your character looked serious.

Now it's just constant C:
Yeah, I caught that too. Just looks silly.
*Teleports behind you*

*Backstabs you with my katana pokemove

C:

I'm sure they'll let you skip the little dance things.

They gotta realize that there are adults playing this game who aren't interested in that lame shit.

They do a shorter version of mega evolution so you're not watching your trainer do all the shit they do, hopefully they do it for Z-moves

VGC is just trash thats all


OT: Between nintendo's continued middle-finger pointed at Metroid and shilling fucking Sonic Boom and the whole lot of fucking nothing in between this is probably the  shittiest direct yet.
