New Pokemon X & Y
NexosYourGayBestFriend96:
I hope the Mega Pokemon are banned from tournaments, because Kangaskan's ability makes Pokemon like Shuckle look under-powered. ?_? Imagine if it had max attack and used hyper beam.
Jerry:
You mean Giga Impact (stronger than Hyper Beam since Kangaskhan is physically oriented)? Shuckle will be able to take 5 attacks without Kangaskhan's Parental Bond, so 2 or 3 if Kangaskhan's stats remain as is; and this assumes both have favourable natures.
Tickles:
I think mega pokemon would be in their own tier for tournaments and such. I wouldn't worry too much about them for PU, since we have a team of excellent balancers.
Jerry:
I think they can fit in any battles anytime. If it'll really be as they say it is, everyone can bring one MegaPokemon with them. If your opponent pull out one MegaPokemon you believe your 'ordinary' pokemon can't take, just pull out yours.
Tickles:
That's a possibility as well. But then it all comes down to whose mega survives, and bby how much. Plus, we have to take into account PO, showdown, and other sims that might remove that possible 1 mega only rule, which is why I predict a new mega tier in that sense. We seen mega mewtwo, so that may mean other legendaries will be mega, so add on a mega ubers and a mega ou tier as well. The actual games themselves would be where it really comes down to the mega that survives.
