there's a questline, im still stuck on earn a candy walking with your buddy but they seem to have mega rocks or something as a reward.

curious as to how they run this out though - the professor was like "well im seeing lots of weedle around this weird glowing stone thing!" and so i'm worried that mega beedrill is going to be the only one out

I just hope that they open up with at least 10+ megas, and not some shitty one at a time dumps like they're doing with new gen pokemon as of late

Is it similar to a 5* in how many people you would need?

I mean I don't even think they have all the gen 3s and 4s in yet

It's easier for them to dump in quantities when beginning a gen because the starters and early route mons are easy enough.

Seemed slightly stronger than a 5 star. They have higher CP than Heatran but idk how much that means.

You want as many people as possible though because the faster you beat it the more mega power you get

Kinda weird to add this in now when it was just removed in the main games. I hope it does make a comeback, though.

Working on the stuff for it now.

Swapped out my Zweilous buddy for a Weedle, might as well do the easy candy distance.

This was my thought process. They still have quite a few Gen 5 Pokemon left to release. Rufflet, specifically, is still stranded as a fucking high-tier, low-chance reward for Go Battle League, making him super rare.

I think Gen 3 is complete, aside from Jirachi, and Gen 4 might even be complete as well, again, besides legendary/mythicals.

Nope. Kecleon. And Jirachi did release as a research quest.

Anyway, the way Megas are being implemented it seems like itll be difficult to use them consistently without spending a boatload. Hopefully theyre not allowed in pvp or this gamell finally transition to p2w.

Oh shit, shows what I know lol. I completely forgot about Jirachi. And I'm surprised Kecleon hasn't been added yet. What exactly is the holdup there? There's nothing particularly exciting about him. Just make him function like Ditto and you're fine.

Just did a Charizard one.

Little goddamn irritating that I need to do four more to actually evolve him.

How long do they stay in form?

Yeah, and they cant be used in PvP. So, Niantic took a feature that everyone was excited to use, made it super difficult to activate and functionally useless outside of maybe being able to beat raids with less people. Its only the third day theyve been available and people in my community are already sick of them.

Like, why didnt they just use Mega Stones and make them one use a day for like an hour? That way, people could use them for their intended purpose of making raids easier and fights between friends more interesting without it becoming such a pain in the ass.

Not to mention the added annoyance of making sure anyone who can't amass 10+ people at a moment's notice for a raid is locked out as well.

They dropped the ball hard on this, but at least they didn't put mega energy in the store.
