Make-a-Mega 4: Complete
Make-a-Mega We all know that there’s a lot of Pokemon that just plain suck competitively. However, the introduction of mega-evolution as a mechanic allowed many Pokemon that would otherwise be very weak to suddenly become very usable. In the case of some Pokemon (ie. Lucario or Mawile), their mega-evolutions give them such a boost that they jump from lower tiers into Ubers. So, for the Daily series Make-a-Mega, we’re going to take a Pokemon that is ordinarily quite weak and create a mega-evolution that will render it usable in a higher tier. In the last Make-a-Mega we took Lapras, a Pokemon with large but compromised bulk and mediocre offensive power and turned into an extremely sturdy wall that can also become a functional wallbreaker with Cure or Dragon Dance setup. Now it's time to again submit ideas for a Pokemon to create a Mega Evolution for. Once we have our chosen Pokemon, we'll develop its type, ability and stats here whilst over in A&D a design to match our changes is created. Week-by-week breakdown Week One: Pokemon is determined Week Two: A&D work begins, type change (if any) is determined. Week Three: Ability change (if any) is determined. Week Four: Stat changes are determined. Featured design is selected. Each week (excluding the artwork) is broken down into three days where ideas are suggested and then a four day poll to determine which idea we apply. The article is then written and published as the next polling process begins. Guidelines

RAPIDASH..!
People, please give it some love this time.. :( |
Let's get Butterfree a mega please!
|

I'm also going to throw Druddigon in there as a nominee as well, very underappreciated Pokemon. |
I think Hydreigon is deserving of a Mega Evolution. The type chart alterations this generation really hurt its viability in OU, and its 98 Base Speed, while an issue since last generation, does it no favours in such a quick metagame. A Mega Evolution would be beneficial for it, as it would improve its Speed tier, increase its staying power by improving its bulk, and give it enough of a Special Attack increase to make not being able to run Life Orb less punishing.
|
I'm going to throw Archeops out there because Defeatist is a crime.
|
I would like to nominate mudkip haxorus. A lot of people seem to forget about it as it's one of the few dragons that isn't a psuedo legendary.
|
Well time for a completely forgotten psychic-hypno
|
The poll is up!
|
Voted For Rapidash, Butterfree and Hypno cuz they need STAT buffs imo..

Everyone should be like me and slide a vote to Butterfree!
|
Vote Hypno or don't be awakened from sleep.
|
I vote for Haxorus. It is so awesome even without a mega-evo. Mega Haxorus would rock.
|
Lets go Weezing!!!
I would take some solace if Weezing lost if Druddigon won. |
Summoning my Pokemon friends to vote for Hax and keep the dream alive! But alas, they probably won't make accounts on this forum. And if they did, they'd obviously just vote for whatever they like instead. The dream is dead. DEAD I TELL YOU!
Anyway, so, I was thinking. We've got a Showdown server, right? Wouldn't we be able to pull some smart people together and set up a format with these megas in? Smogon do the CAP project, so it doesn't seem too unreasonable. |

Come on, just 2 more votes for Haxorus and we can get the dream going. You can do it! |
Welp we had a tie once again. After a coin toss though, we will be creating a Mega Weezing. I'm thinking it'd be cool to add Fire as an additional type, what about you guys?
|
why coin toss, should have opened a poll btwn weez and butter for a day.... :/

I think Poison/Dark is the best.
|
I dunno, I mean apart from just looking like it's begging for a fire typing, I think Poison/Fire makes for a great anti-meta type considering it resists a lot of prominent types in the OU meta. Ground could be an issue, but not if we keep Levitate.
|
I think poison/fire would be good! Couldn't we keep levitate as an ability or does it always change?
