Imagine going back to just Gen 8 and telling someone that a new Mega with higher Spe and slightly lower SpA than Calyrex-S would be made, then people unironically saying it should get a damage buff because its not as strong as significantly slower Mega Lucario that's still Uber
No.
We don't need good abilities on the Z Megas. We also really SHOULDN'T be striving to intentionally make Megas similar to already Uber Pokemon.
 
:garchomp-mega: Garchomp-Mega-Z: Rough Skin
I think that Mega Garchomp Z should have an ability that gives it STAB on its Ground moves(not sure about a name) because a) I think it's lame to give a mega the same ability as the base form, b) I think it still works for the design, and c) it doesn't remove the threat of powerful Special Ground moves, as there aren't many good special attacking Ground types, and I think that's the direction the mega should have went
 
Also not that Light Clay is available, ban base form Magearna.
:sv/Magearna:
Magearna @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Soul-Heart
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 72 Def / 12 SpA / 172 Spe or 252 HP / 72 Def / 84 SpA / 100 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Shift Gear
- Calm Mind
- Stored Power
- Draining Kiss
With Reflect and Light Screen, it's extremely easy for Magearna to set up multiple boosts and tank super effective hits. The EV spread given lets Magearna survive 2 Earthquakes from Excadrill with Reflect up, and lets it outspeed uninvested Rotom-Wash before a Shift Gear boost or after Shift Gear and getting paralyzed. You can take more from speed since you can absolutely get multiple Shift Gear boosts, but make sure you outspeed Special Defense Heatran.
 
:garchomp: mega is honestly pretty busted, I'm not sure if it's banworthy but its surely a really good mon. Insane speed tier + Great coverage and good sptack means it's only really checked by like clef and thats about it.

:Meowstic: is also pretty good, its fun to consider the applications of competitive as well, you can switch it in on defog, then mega and basically anything gets OHKOed
Expanding force from a boosted meowstic is honestly just so easy to click. It has excellent coverage in moonblast and ep.
Do i actually think its getting psyterrain offically? Maybe not. if it does it'll easily be OU or MAYBE ubers.
 
Custom Abilities are NOT happening, please STOP clogging up discussion with suggestions that WILL be ignored by the council and play the metagame (which it is clear MOST of you do NOT do) so we can have informed and fruitful discussion going forward.
Speaking of fruitful discussion., can we get some answers as to why Dauntless Shield was given to Falinks? I feel like it makes it too reliant on Body Press sets, no?
 
Submission Rules

Currently no formal submission process due to the minimal speculation this Pet Mod requires. However, if you have a better idea for a speculative Mega ability, feel free to explain why in this thread with the following format:
[b]Mega Evolution:
New Ability:
Ability Description (if it doesn't currently exist):
Reasoning: [/b]
Probably a good idea to remove the “Ability Description (if it doesn't currently exist):” text or replace it with “DO NOT USE CUSTOM MADE ABILITIES” since there are people still making custom abilities for Megas.
People see the OP before some post in the middle of the almost 50 page thread, and that's gonna confuse people.
Also add to the title "(NO CUSTOM ABILITIES)" just to make sure.
