      ​@@electricipea.101Because bugs are not part of one archetype, for example:flying types are mostly fast one hit wonder who dies fast, so any priority or faster enemys are certain death. But bugs have a huge variety of playstyles, making it easier to make a balanced team.
      Tldr: Variety in playstyles=Good
      And bug is very varied.

  • @christiancinnabars1402
    @christiancinnabars1402 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    Mega Shedinja definitely should have kept Wonder Guard over either Tinted Lens or Adaptability. And Cheating Death should reset every time it switches. I get that they don't want to go overboard with making it full on untouchable, but it is a Bug mon with base 120 Attack and middling bp moves like X-Scissor and Phantom Force. It probably isn't killing anything any time soon, which is a huge drawback as a Mega when you have to compete with stuff like the Mega Gyaradoses and even other Bug Megas like Beedrill and Scizor.
    Even it having Tinted Lens, which would usually be a godsend for other Bug-types, is kind of a nothing ability on Mega Shedinja. The only resists to Ghost are Normal and Dark... both of which you can usually hit with Bug-type moves. Unless your opponent is running freaking Pyroar, and I guess Banette in this game, you aren't really getting any mileage off of the ability. Which, again, means you can replace it with Wonder Guard to have it remain as a unique win condition - sort of like how regular Shedinja is in some Singles formats - rather than let it deal more damage against a very small handful of mostly off-meta mons.

    • @christiancinnabars1402
      @christiancinnabars1402 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Mega Beedrill on the other hand, that's a mon that would _really_ love Tinted Lens. Bug and Poison is such an abysmal STAB combo, so removing all (or at least most) of its resists would help it out a lot.
      Put Tinted Lens over Merciless or even Hyper-Aggressive (my first go-to would actually be Levitate, but something tells me that they'd rather keep it on the mon for design-based reasons) and it becomes a lot more dangerous with Adaptability.

    Ngl cheating death sounds like a downgrade to the og wonder guard lol, unless it means 2 supereffective hits, i see very little to be gained on 2 free turn when u can get hit by everything, including multihit moves as u said. Sure if u can spam espeed and sweep after setting up, cool, but it doesn’t strike me as much of an upgrade if any kekw

  • @BaneHydra
    @BaneHydra 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think you're doing vanilla Mega Beedrill a disservice here. It was a very solid Mega, especially compared to its base forme it probably got the biggest upgrade out of any mon to receive a mega in X/Y, maybe second to Mega Kangaskhan. Mega Beedrill was definitely better than Mega Banette, Glalie, Abomasnow, Camerupt or Houndoom, for example.
    Imo its biggest issue (aside from its bad defenses) were its bad offensive typing and its weak movepool. Poison/Bug is just not very good, and its already weak coverage moves (Drill Run, Knock Off... Brick Break?) were even weaker cause they didn't get Adaptability. At 145 Speed it was already faster than everything except absolute speed freaks like Ninjask, Electrode or Regieleki, I don't think buffing it to 175 Speed does too much for it. I think if they wanted to really buff it, Mega Beedrill would've loved Tinted Lens. Steel, Poison and Ghost all resist both of its STAB moves, and Drill Run rarely oneshots those types without Adaptability.
