Mega Evolution is nowhere near dumb, and your completely delusional if you thought they would take them out lmao. I dont like Piplup in fact i cant stand it, so should gamefreak take it away from future installments? Yeah think about that for a sec :0

Its a mechanic change and in fact puts competitive play into a nice setting but you wouldn't kno cuz you dont play competitive :-/

Hmm, no. Piplup is a Pokemon, Mega Evolutions are a dumb add-on that they just recently introduced. Add-on "mechanics" like this are switched or fased out a lot, much like Contests or Rotation Battles. They aren't necessary, especially when they are stupid.

And also no, Mega Evolutions are ridiculously OP. Going up against one isn't fair at all if you don't have another Mega. They mostly just seem to be annoying fan-service. (It also doesn't make sense since R/S take place in Hoenn, you know the region that didn't discover Megas. Kalos is the only one that has.)
