I know about tiers, yes. Though always remember that the casual audience is always much larger and so should be looked at first. With no tiers, the battles will all be M-Blaziken/M-Gengar/M-Mewtwo or whatever. That's what I've heard is the case online.
And while I also agree with the "different megas fulfil different needs" idea, and will definitely be using some lesser used Megas whenever I get a 3DS and this game, there is already a tonne of talk about "this Mega is fine, but not worth giving up your Mega slot because [insert the popular, super good megas here] exist" for half of them. Heck, even for Mega Sableye, and the game isnt out yet. I understand restricting the Megas to one per team, but doing that should have come with making the power difference between them less large and making it more of a "use this depending on your strategy" case. Who cares about looking for a strategy when you can just use protect once as M-Blaziken and then Speed Boost to win or just send out Mega Gengar and Destiny Bond any pokemon you want, garanteed? |
It surprises e tha you havent even go the gae yet and your already dismissing the mega evos. As far as rating battles through battle spot (Pokemon online random battles) its a completly diffrent startegy then regular 6v6 becuase you bring 6 poke but only choose 3. The great thing about pokemon there is always a counter to each poke whether there OP or not. Azumarill basically complelty wall Blazekin and I belive OHKO's Gengar with choice banded aqua jet. There are many others to counter them too. So no atter how OP or cheap you think a pokemon is theres away around it.
