[Meta Thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Spiritmon]

Indeed! Thats indeed a incredible display of why Pseudo are trully monsters on the battlefield. I dont think any pokemon of mine could even have a chance against such beast. I think the only who maybe have a slight chance is Hecate with Mega Evolution, Calm Mind, and typing. But I dont think she would survive long. Although thats a battle I would like to see!

Hecate would absolutely destroy most Dragon type Pseudos with how powerful her Fairy moves are, lmao.  Wouldn't even need to try that hard against an average one probably.  Even Goodra would likely go down in 2 or 3 hits (there's a reason he didn't attempt anything against Morgana!), and Goodra has 35+ HP and titanic special bulk!  The Jangmo-o line is even more allergic to Fairy type moves to boot.

You figure out how to exploit a Pseudo's weaknesses, you either KO them extremely quickly or cripple them to a degree that they're basically just a normal pokemon.

Maybe, but would still be likely a very difficult fight. Pseudo are true beasts in their own merits, and Hecate truly have weakness who can be exploited.

The funny thing Oz was made to be more of a support for the campaign because of her medic skills, and Hecate reflect that because of her healing moves and restoration abilities. Even her Mega make the healing moves stronger. And when mega evolving Hecate show her face as goodness of war. She might lack Gigantamax, but she more than make up, and surpass that with Mega Evolution.

Hmm, that's bring a question it's been in my mind, since Pokemon Z.A is coming, and mega evolution is returning: Why is the reason some fans like or even love Mega Evolution? It is because it makes a Pokemon go beyond it's form and get a new and a powerboost? Or it is because it was the first gamechange appearance in 3D game before Z-Moves and Dynamax/Gigantamax, and it pure liked/loved by pure nostalgic thing?

If the first answer, then couldn't we say Z-Moves and Dynamax/Gigantamax kinda do the same function as Megas? Or if is the later answer, then the other "visual" mechanics would get more love if it was made "first"?

I did see the question made on a YouTube video a long time ago, and I question myself that. I kinda know my answer, but I wanted to hear you guys insights on that topic, because you people opinions is awesome and epic, I always made think about things.
