Megas For All (Read the whole 1st post and check current slate)

[Darth Manaphy]

Are triple types possible?

I was going to just give Prankster to regular Rotom.

Trick-or-Treak and Forest's Curse says yes?

It'll be an ability that makes it NOT an actual hard coded typing

You'd also have to give it 5 new moves since standard Rotom doesn't actually learn them.

Not like anyone actually cares about the rules but

All we should have to do it apply the effect of forest's curse to leaf storm except it affects you're pokemon. Then we can just reccle the code for the other moves. We'd have to hard code it to rotom though

I still have a private doc. of approved but not balancing council approved Megas so don't worry for now.
Also new fixed slate schedule is up so the mons we are doing are: Infernape, Ramparados, Wormadam-P and Wormadam-S. I would also like some discussion on whether the separate forms should get separate Megas. Sorry for the confusion.

I think that if separate formes can exist outside of battle, and do not require holding an item and are significantly different then the formes should have separate Megas

Should Have Multiple:
Rotom, Wormadam, Kyurem, Landorus, Thundurus, Landorus, Deoxys, Shaymin, Gourgeist

Shouldn't Have Multiple:
Unown, Keldeo, Cherrim, Gastrodon, Giratina, Darmarntin, Basculin, Sawsbuck, Meloetta, Vivillion, Florges, Furfrou, Aegislash, Arceus

 

[Darth Manaphy]

Well, the stone would work on any of the Rotom forms and do the same thing.

Also, you could always put Substitute or something as the first move and make it Electric/Ghost/Normal typing

Yes this is exactly how it should be.

Actually I wanted to try and make Zen Darmanitan viable but as if.

 

[Darth Manaphy]

Actually... I have one question.

How would it work in Programming? Can we make them work for the different forms or what?

We just code two items for one pokemon. If you look at the code for Zard X/Y, you could see it's pretty simple to do.

I meant opposite. Can we get one mega for two forms?

Oops. Credit for Clap.

I was really looking forward to making a Mega for Bastiodon. Oh well. I'll try to come up with something interesting for the new slate.

 

[Mega Mantine]

So what's the upcoming slate again?

 

[Darth Manaphy]

So what's the upcoming slate again?

THAT!

Is a good question

 

[Valzy]

Infernape, Ramparados, Wormadam-P and Wormadam-S

 

[warriorman222]

Give Infernape Infernate as an ability. Whose with me?

 

[Peef Rimgar]

I really don't understand what you're asking tbh

 

[Darth Manaphy]

I really don't understand what you're asking tbh

Like, can we make one Mega Stone that'll work on Rotom, Rotom-W, Rotom-F, Rotom-S, Rotom-C and Rotom-H?

 

[Rosen]

Guys no. Just Mega Rotom.

I think that if separate formes can exist outside of battle, and do not require holding an item and are significantly different then the formes should have separate Megas

Should Have Multiple:
Rotom, Wormadam, Kyurem, Landorus, Thundurus, Landorus, Deoxys, Shaymin, Gourgeist

Shouldn't Have Multiple:
Unown, Keldeo, Cherrim, Gastrodon, Giratina, Darmarntin, Basculin, Sawsbuck, Meloetta, Vivillion, Florges, Furfrou, Aegislash, Arceus

No no no no no. They shouldn't. None of them should have multiple megas (bar Gourgeist). ESPECIALLY not Rotom.

 

[Rosen]

Like, can we make one Mega Stone that'll work on Rotom, Rotom-W, Rotom-F, Rotom-S, Rotom-C and Rotom-H?

OR OR OR we just have ONE mega stone go off of JUST ROTOM, and none of the other forms get megas because that's rediculous.

Here's what I propose, everyone:

Mega Rotom. As in this thing.

Not these things.

SO, retain the Electric/Ghost typing, but instead of going off of Rotom's BST of 480, go off of his forms BST's of 520.

 

[Rosen]

The only pokemon whose forms deserve different Megas are Gourgeists, and the only reason for that is the different HP stats. They should function exactly the same way, only have stat differences proportionate with the original forms.

 

[natnew]

Bibarel-Mega-X

Normal/Water ----> Water
Simple/Unaware ----> Drizzle
79/85/60/55/60/71 ---> 79/95/60/145/70/61
no new moves

..ok, now this thing can FINALLY take advantage of it's special moveset with 145 special attack, with drizzle for thunder. hey, it's a beaver.

Bibarel-Mega-Y

Normal/Water ----> Normal/Water
Simple/Unaware ----> Huge Power
79/85/60/55/60/71 ---> 79/105/80/55/80/101
+Wood Hammer

Mawile Clone FTW Huge power is... powerful. so-so defenses, ok speed, and god power are just... amazing.

Bibarel-Mega-Z (I had 3 ideas)

Normal/Water ----> Ground/Water
Simple/Unaware ----> Brute Force
79/85/60/55/60/71 ---> 79/145/70/55/70/81
+Earthquake

(finds a Hippowdon to hide behind) brute force + huge special moveset = lots of power...

also, will there be more than 1 mega per team? seems a waste to have 600+ megas but only one at a time. also, don't take this post to literally be bibarel-mega x/y/z, I just had 3 ideas.

That's a dumb reason for only Gourgeist to get a Mega per form when there's ten other 'mons with forms that are much more distinct from their regular form.

And we're not going to give Rotom more than 100 stats if we couldn't give that to Farfetch'D or basically anything else.

 

[Rosen]

That's a perfectly legitimate reason for Gourgeist to get a different form, you can't change base HP. It has nothing to do with 'distinction'

 

[Rosen]

I'm not adamant on that, it was just an idea.

 

[Mega Mantine]

That's a perfectly legitimate reason for Gourgeist to get a different form, you can't change base HP. It has nothing to do with 'distinction'

But if we're just using the regular form for everything else... why can't we do the same for Gourgeist? That's completely arbitrary, be consistent and just make one for the normal size. Or make a Mega for everything else.

there isn't a "normal size"

and there are four sizes

and the megas would be EXACTLY THE SAME

bar stat distribution

which would be proportionate in the EXACT SAME WAY as the base forms
