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

[Lord Windos]

Windos, while re-reading Oz battle against Dandy Man, I get curious to ask: Besides the Yu-Gi-Oh card, what was the inspiration(s) to Mega Hatterene design? And choice of weapons? I been waiting to ask for quite a while.

It's been a while, but I clearly remember having Hellsing (the GUN and some of her attitude) and the legends about lady of war Scathach as inspirations for her overall design and 'feel' as a magical goddess of war. Some hints of India mythology was also added as well - Kali , for example, as alluded to by being multi-armed and VERY dangerous. 

Onto other matters - I'm not going to get any big updates done today for work reasons until MUCH later, and that's after I get caught up on some paperwork. I'll try to progress the ones that won't take too much Rolls or elaboration, but I'm not sure how much I will get done in time. 

As for the Mega Evo Topic - I'm in favor of their general return in future installments, or if not that then at least giving us back all the Megas that existed as some Alt Forms or Evos for those Mons. Beedrill, Sableyes, Mawhile, Lopunny....they all got shafted when they lost their big ticket to success, and I can't understand why Gamefreak would abandon such a popular and interesting concept as Megas when it's a good enough solution to increase the power levels of weaker Mons while shifting around things for the less than optimal ones (I weap for thee, Mega Garchomp) . Heck, introducing new Mega every generation and new DLC is practically a recipe for success that sells itself, if the popularity of Mons like Walking Wake and Ogeropon are any indicators. 

Of course I haven't purchased any Nintendo products ever since Uranium and AM2R got almost eaten alive by the lawyers, and only get my Pokemon media through outside sources, data archives like Serebii, Youtubers, and fan material these days, so take my opinion with a big dash of salt here.
