Plus they are Ground types: my fav types.

I honestly don't care if they get better or worse via Mega evo.
I just want an elephant pokemon to have a real trunk :lol

I just thought up two Pokemon i want to train after my shiny lileep hunt.

Imma train a Breloom and a Ninetails. Already have nicknames lined up for them too, Trunks and Paula. :lol Yeah, i think imma do that.

And I want Tiger Pokemon that aren't legendary and a GOOD Bear Pokemon.

And Dragon Dance Flygon, and a Rock buff, and an item that negates the Ability of the holder, and an item that's a physical Assault Vest variant, and an item that negates Recoil, and a golden Bat mon.

So i breeded my newest Pokemon, Paula the Vulpix!
She has perfect IV's in Sp defense stat, now to think up a moveset that makes use of that.

Also she's in a pink Pokeball i noticed, i'm trying to remember where this Pokeball is from because i don't really remember.

Heal Ball probably.

Nah, it's not a Heal ball because i remember what that one looks like. This ones pink with like a purple spot on top.

Dream ball?

*Looks it up*
Huh that's one it, weird i don't remember using the dream world at all. Man now that's a relic of the past.

At least I made reasonable requests...

You know what I want? Here's my list:
- D-Dance Garchomp
- an ability that's like intimidate but lower special attack instead
- a water type attack that has the same power as Overheat and Leaf Storm and also lowers the users special attack by two stages (just like the aforementioned moves.)
- an actual grasshopper Pokemon. Not a damn cricket.
- Pokemon with forms stay in that form when placed in a box instead of reverting back to their base form (I'm looking at you Shaymin and Hoopa!)

That's really stupid. That is really stupid. Why? Why Game freak?

Why would they not patch in compatibility for god's sake? I get trying to use Mega-evos to sell the new games, but to flat out not have compatibility is stupid.

Question: Do you guys think that main Pokemon games would do DLC? Or do you think annual releases are still the way to go?

You all and your complex wants.
It's really rather simple.
Mega Milotic
Mega Milotic with an OP ability
Dragon Dance Milotic, because why not~?
Or, if allowed, Dragon Dance Mega Milotic with an OP ability, because I love me some Milotic~

It's kind of dumb, but at least they're not cutting compatibility entirely. It sucks that I can't use my Mega Pidgeot or Beedrill against some people, but at least it's not pulling a "Only ORAS can connect to ORAS" kind of BS.
I don't know why they didn't patch in the new models and mega stones, since that seems like it wouldn't be that difficult to do, but I'm not a programmer, so what do I know.

And they have been, to an extent, ever since they started having you download some legendaries to obtain them...

I don't really want anything, after all Gardevoir and Blaziken are already perfect!
...Okay maybe bump up Ninetails stats a bit, but other than that nothing.

Ok. Water/Steel
Ironsides: When HP dips between 50% and 1%, it automatically goes up to 75%.
Because that move is kinda pointless on a Special Attacker with base 60 Physical Attack~

And have Dragon Dance also boost Speacial Attack along with Physical and Speed!

Let me take your idea... and change it a bit.
Ahem
Mega-Milotic
Water/Dragon
Ability: Adaptability
Raise its defense, special defense, and special attack after mega evolving.
Since Milotic can learn Dragon Pulse, it'll be STAB with the adaptability boost. Also give Milotic access to Calm Mind to boost its special attack and special defense to make it bulkier then before.

I'm sure these ideas will make Milotic a killing machine.

Both of those would be rather fun (I just had Pidgeot to M.Pidgeot on my mind :lol)
I just want to use Milotic beyond turtling and spamming Scald and Recover.

Mine is all about dat stall tactic!

As much as I want to get hyped up, the fact that it's currently only an arcade game makes it difficult.

Magnemite operating the cameras was cute, though.

This. I can't really get excited about a game I right now have absolutely no guarantee of ever playing.

I find it hard not to get hyped, it's a Pokemon fighting game for Arceus sake! That's something i've always wanted! Doesn't help that Gardevoirs on the roster.

I don't think you quite understand. Pokken is current a physical arcade game only, with no word on Wii U release at all.
It's hard to feel the hype when the only option for people like us to play is currently to fly to Japan, as they're being noticeably silent concerning a home port.

Oh i understand perfectly. The fact that it exists is good enough for me.
Besides i think the intial trailer was also shown to western audiences so i think were getting it a SOME point, we just don't know when.

HOLY MOTHER OF GODOKA!!!

Story: Okay, so I was in granite cave looking for a Makuhita for breeding when suddenly this beautiful bastard came out of nowhere. I swear Godoka, it appeared when my Dexnav level was at 46.

Congrats. :D

Happy May Day!

YAY!!

So what do you guys consider as a guideline for a good Mega Evolution design?

I think a good Mega Evolution usually builds on top of the existing design. Stuff like Mega Rayquaza and the the ones of the starters I think are ones that do it well.

I feel Mega evolutions are best when they look like an advancement of the existing character, not just looking like they hijacked someone's personal interpretation of the Pokemon off DA and called it their own.
This is why I feel Pokemon like Mega Manectric, Mega Rayquaza, and Mega Scizor fail. They feel rather cheap, putting a giant halt to their general design in favor of something different entirely, usually too over the top.

The big issue is that it's very much a case by case situation, with some Mega evos looking gawd awful despite following their general design aesthetics, while some looking great despite departing from their general look.

I think the only thing I can think of for a "Good" Mega evo guideline is to not focus on one aspect of the Pokemon and go crazy with it (Like Alakazam's mustache or Manetric's spiked fur).

To me, a mega evolution should (at least) be an extension of itself and/or it's past evolutions.

What about Primal Groudon/Kyogre?

Technically speaking those aren't mega evos so they can't exactly be extensions of the base Pokemon.

They're also just different colored versions of their base forms except with some added emphasis on aspects of the originals' designs.

Those are Primal Reversions, not Mega Evolutions

So what's a good moveset for ninetails? I finished super training my Paula so i'm gonna level it up before evolving.

Followup question, what's a good stat for Shroomish? I'm assuming attack considering Breloom is fighting type.

Flamethrower/Fire Blast(Depends on if you want to be accurate or powerful)
Solarbeam
Nasty Plot/Hypnosis
Hidden Power Ice/Psyshock/Dark Pulse

For Ninetales:
-Solarbeam (if it has Drought)/ Energy Ball (if it doesn't)
-Fire Blast/Flamethrower
-Will-O-Wisp/Psyshock
-Nasty Plot

As for Breloom:
Breloom @ Focus Sash
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Spore
- Bullet Seed
- Mach Punch
- Rock Tomb

Thanks!

And now that i have Paula's moveset, i'm just sitting here wondering one thing, should i level her up now and evolve her when she gets to LV100 or evolve her now so she gets better stats?
