Literally anyone else can do the same retarded mega evolution thingy, she looked like a tryhard which she is.

She looked cool and focused

Nope.

The manga has the right portrayal

>anime showcasing Megas left and right
>Megas have actually been completely removed this Gen with no signs of ever returning in the games again

What the fuck is this franchise

Megas are at least in GO, which the anime also promotes.

It's worse for Z-moves because those aren't available ANYWHERE right now and are still shilled in the anime.

Cynthia has a doped mega stone just like Alain did in XY. Makes no sense why a -2 Garchomp's Draco Meteor would get more powerful.

Those sync moves in Masters are basically Z-moves.

The issue is that you have to pass actual trials to use Z-moves and it's apparently easier to get Mega bands than Max bands, since Iris couldn't get one.

>Anime
Literally EVERYTHING is showcasing Megas left and right. Everything but the mainline games.
I will never for the sake of my life understand why they decided to drop Megas to keep introducing new gimmicks that will then get dropped again for yet another new gimmick.
And they're even triple-downing on it with SV apparently introducing like four different gimmicks all in one go that will most certainly never be expanded upon and thrown into the trash for whatever gimmick Gen 10 introduces.

>cheats to win

>Gastrodon died from a K.O move
>Milotic used 1% of her power with the Disarming Voice shit

>cheats to win

>cheats to win

Hahahahahaha

>Makes no sense why a -2 Garchomp's Draco Meteor would get more powerful.
Could be that the stat stage reset upon Mega Evolution.
Wouldn't be the first time a mon went back to full HP after Mega (Alain's MCX in Kalos League)

>muh game mechanics
People don't have stamina bars in real life.

Shirona was perfect in this episode .
