I completely agree. After all the preaching about friendship it makes no sense to capture a random Pinsir and mega evolve it off the backYeah, Amie could definitely use more of a purpose, it kind of feels redundant next to happiness and all it gives now is a handful of in game stat boosts. Relating it to Mega Evolution is a great way to give it some use.
Nope. Nope. Nope. I'm done with them catering to casuals and simplicity. It is not that hard to make Mega Evolution exclusive to Pokémon who have 1 heart in Pokémon-A-Mie.Oh but making players earn the megas by forcing us to use Amie could be too difficult for the casuals. It's easier to just be able to use Mega Evolution from the get go.
I'm not against linking Amie to Mega evolution but I'd prefer it if they used their time and resources to make actual Megas or add more features to the game than make a bunch of gimmicky Greninja (or other Pokemon) forms that look like the player.I believe GF has the power to implement such a feature. The only thing it requires is *hard work * and it could be more or less an extension of Amie which allows us to sync with our Pokémon anyway. Much like Zygarde perhaps certain features will be expanded upon to flush them out more.
I'm not saying I dislike the mechanic, but GF doesn't like mechanics that would annoy the smartphone fans.Nope. Nope. Nope. I'm done with them catering to casuals and simplicity. It is not that hard to make Mega Evolution exclusive to Pokémon who have 1 heart in Pokémon-A-Mie.
You get the necessary Stone, the necessary Pokémon and you get that Pokémon to at least 3 hearts (out of the 5 hearts) in Pokémon Amie as well as maximum friendship, with Mega Evolution for that specific Pokémon opening up after meeting that criteria.
And in online play, any Pokémon can Mega Evolve instantly like they can do in-game right now.
It is not that difficult at all. You're always praising OR/AS, which contains the most difficult legendary puzzle of all the franchise, so you should definitely be on board with more difficulty.
My boys and I are as casual as they come and even we were kinda stumped that getting a mega was so easy. We're aren't children that need hand holding but rather gamers who are just looking to examine every game we may play just for fun.I'm not saying I dislike the mechanic, but GF doesn't like mechanics that would annoy the smartphone fans.
And yeah, the Regis have a cool mechanic.
Finally, someone from this actual demographic confirms that GF is doing it far too easily.My boys and I are as casual as they come and even we were kinda stumped that getting a mega was so easy.

Yeah my family is really casual ( smart phone stuff) but my friends, neighbors, and relatives all love Pokémon to death and we're all equally upset about the BF because we're in it for the single Player experience and we were hoping it'd be back especially since they could've added new brains to go with some of the more recent battle styles.Finally, someone from this actual demographic confirms that GF is doing it far too easily.
I think you may be looking at this wrong. It might not be an oversight but part of 1 continuous story. So they are showing how it went from requiring stones to not requiring stones. Not necesarily an oversight, they've just not finished telling us the full story yet.Amie not being used for Mega Evolution is a big oversight. Like you tell us Mega Evolution is the result of your bond with your Pokemon. And in the same gen, you introduce a game mechanic that involves playing with your Pokemon, and gain its trust and love for you in a way thst gives it bonuses for battles. But you don't connect the two, and just have megas be a push of a button, no matter how mistreated or ignored the Pokemon is? Okay. I really want this alleviated in some way.
I've been thinking since Zygarde's formes and involvement in the anime were revealed that the next game might use a somewhat different version of Flare's story, involving Zygarde. The tree thing might be hinting towards that. Could the Zygarde cannon simultaneously have powers of both life and death, fitting with Zygarde as the balance between Xerneas and Yveltal? Parts of the giant tree have an autumnal look, which is very unusual for the anime, and I think that's significant. The anime version of the Poke-world is usually shown as having a permanently-mild climate, with autumn and winter only appearing at high altitudes. The reddish-brown leaves could mean that those parts of the tree are dead. I'm wondering though, what are Team Flare going to do with the megalith from Hoenn? Are they going to combine it with the Zygarde cannon, or could they have more than one superweapon?Family Friendly how exactly? Cause from the looks of it, the cannon dedtroyed whatever was on the island to make room for the trees. Its interesting if the goal for Anime TF is a Zygarde Fueled cannon built by themselves, and not the infinite weapon powered by the duo. Mostly cause that would mean AZ's plot is irrelevant to the TF plot, which does open way for them to use it for a movie. If you catch my drift. But yeah, we are entering new story ground here, and I wonder if the Anime is making things up along the way 100%, or if there is some actual basis for it.
it's really not that hard. at its worst, it is time consuming, especially if you suck at the mini-games.Oh but making players earn the megas by forcing us to use Amie could be too difficult for the casuals. It's easier to just be able to use Mega Evolution from the get go.
gameplay and story segregation. Dodrio runs at 40 MPH, but Arcanine can run 6,200 miles in one day....and Arcanine is slower than Dodrio.I completely agree. After all the preaching about friendship it makes no sense to capture a random Pinsir and mega evolve it off the back
