Shradow Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Is that Wally next to Mega Gallade? Well, he looks a lot less plain now. I like the hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Βyakuya Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Mega Gallade looks awesome with the glorious cape and flaming hands. It appears to be like a tuxedo, like he's the perfect groom for Gardevoir. Outside from him being looking naked, he'd sure be very versatile coming into OU if he can retain a good amount of speed. Very diverse moveset including priority Shadow Sneak and Knock Off are good starters. So it appears that Wally, now looking much less plain and generic, is learning about Mega Evos and Gallade will be his boss instead of Gardevoir. Did always seem weird when it was just Gardevoir. Mega Sharpedo would be more awesome stat wise. It doesn't look very progressive in a full torpedo shape but it does provide attributes of a chainsaw and the big nose to ram stuff with. The tribal markings on the side can complete it. Mega Sharpedo is naturally a speedy killer, and with Strong Jaw, it makes it more lethal. Sure it does sacrifice Speed Boost but it wouldn't do anything with that. Ice Fang, Crunch, Destiny Bond, Taunt, Aqua Jet, Waterfall, Scald, and Poison Jab are just some ideas to generate.

-Berserker- Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Camerupt is now a furry Torkoal. Gallade could have Sharp Claws, to go with his focus on cutting moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Didn't notice the cape or the burning fingers. Okay, I like Gallade better now. Also Tough Claws would be pretty cool. And yes, Speed Boost matters a lot on Sharpedo, it's probably still pretty frail so if anything outspeeds it it's in trouble. So keeping it not Mega for a turn would help a lot. (And don't forget it can still learn Special Attacks and use them well. So that's even more moves for it.)

A different tactic altogether when it comes to deciding when to Mega Evolve, instead of just M-volving right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I mean it involves the same thought as M-Evolving, then using Protect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And don't forget it can still learn Special Attacks and use them well. So that's even more moves for it.) Same thing happened to me. Once I saw those 2 things I liked the design a lot more. I already like Cam and Shar. Losing Speed Boost is a huge lose, but being able to get at least 1 in before going mega is still something, especially since he will have a speed boost and won't be that slow should he switch out and lose the boost. Sheer Force on Cam is nuts. Shame he can't abuse LO with it, but thats w/e. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 If they put Tough Claws on Gallade and it gets a speed boost over 20, chance he gets banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Megallade's ability is Inner Focus. He better have a busted as all hell stat buff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Rayquaza holds a secret the mega evolution, but that's all we know on that matter Also regarding the demo version of the game. You will see a Mega Evolution for the first time in this demo, and you can then transfer it, as well as items you collect, over to the main games when they are released. It is also hinted that, if you play the demo every day, something special will happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Inner Focus? Well that's underwhelming, very much so...It better get a huge boost to its stats since that ability, while useful, isn't all that great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Snrk, Inner Focus. I wonder if Game Freak just hates Gallade or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 candidate for the worst mega ability so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Yeah, Inner Focus on Gallade really doesn't do anything useful. Unless opponent uses Fake Out or Air Slash or something, it's essentially pointless. At least Steadfast gave it a speed boost if it even flinched. At least Gardevoir got an offensive ability that actually does something; Gallade, well, gets the short end of the stick. As mentioned earlier, Sheer Force or anything to power up its physical attacks would've be great. Heck, if it got Adaptability or something, that would've been better than Inner Focus. Unless his stats are worth the ability, I personally don't see Mega Gallade being used much, and/or being moved out of RU or wherever he is now.

Agro Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Well I mean if they give Gallade any considerable boost in Attack AND Speed, an ability to match it would probably be borked. Snrk, Inner Focus. I wonder if Game Freak just hates Gallade or something. Yeah, they must REALLY hate Gallade. And probably every Pokémon I like.

~British Soul~ Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Why am I suddenly getting a feeling that you'll get the Galladite (or whatever it'll be called) from Wally after you beat the E4 like in XY with the Gardevoirite.

Something along the lines of Gardevoir is more likely. +40 ATK, +20 SpA, +20 SpD, +20 Spd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pchi Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Yeah, Inner Focus on Gallade really doesn't do anything useful. Unless opponent uses Fake Out or Air Slash or something, it's essentially pointless. At least Steadfast gave it a speed boost if it even flinched. In some situations, Steadfast is worse than Inner Focus because you still lose momentum even though you get a Spd boost. If your opponent Fakes you Out and then proceeds to use Sucker Punch or another Priority Move whose damage output is within the range to kill Gallade, unless you can kill it immediately after receiving the boost with Shadow Sneak, you're pretty much screwed. In Doubles it always plays out much better than Steadfast; and I strongly believe Game Freak is trying to invest in that Battle Mode for the VGCs with some of those new Megas, like M-Audino, M-Swampert and M-Sceptile. That said, I'd prefer he gained Sheer Force, Adaptability, or something along those lines as well. Hopefully it will get a new Water-type fang attack to take advantage of that ability. I seriously doubt they'll give a new move to any Pokémon other than Legendaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 I don't see why Adaptability or Sheer Force are the options people are going with as what would've been better. Adaptability makes some sense, but it also would be way overpowered. Sheer Force doesn't make too much sense with the design. I still say, of the existing abilities, Tough Claws would've made the most sense. But, either way, the ability is still underwhelming, even if it DOES stop Fake Out.

If they really wanted to push him for doubles, an ability that could let him hit through Protect and the like would have been SWEET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That actually would be really cool. Something like Guard Break. It could also nullify Reflect and Light Screen. Like Feint and Brick Break made into an ability.

I kinda want Primal Rayquaza to be something more than glow in the dark, but I'm supposing that's not likely. Then again, if he holds a secret to the overall process, maybe that'd warrant a mega form more transformative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
