So are we ever gonna get normal evolutions for previous gen pokemon, or more baby pokemon? Jeez, instead of giving Pokemon normal evolutions, they're just giving everybody a mega form.

Mega pinsir, (I'm going to guess that try will have similar attack stats. Mega pinsir has 155 base attack) has a 100% chance to OHKO sylveon with thrash. Jolly pinsir, No less.
Well, Mega Pinsir uses Return because of the reasons I just said: It's safer and has no drawbacks.
The only thing that separates Pinsir and Salamence is that the former can boost its Attack up to +2, while Salamence boosts its Attack and Speed by +1. Pinsir also needs Quick Attack to K.O. anything that is faster than it.
Salamence has Intimidate before Mega Evolving, which results in a similar case to Mawile in that it uses Intimidate to set up easily. It's just going to make the thing a "threat" by Smogon / Pokémon Online standards.
Also, if we're talking about Mixed sets, Hyper Voice hits through Substitutes, meaning that stuff that uses Substitute to "protect" is still going to get hit.

Jeez Pokemon is getting convoluted.... first evolutions, then alternate formes, then MegaEvolutions, then primal reversions, what's next? Regular Evolutions for Mega Evolutions?

Yea return will probably be the better and more popular option, I'll use thrash because it's So powerful.

Cool, that means some Mega Evolutions will have the ability to use regular Items like Leftovers, Life Orb, Eviolite, etc.
inb4 Too broken. Smogon bans.

If that's what you're saying, well, each to their own.

So, is Speculation vs. Competitiveness a thing. I've heard a lot of people complaining about a lot of competitive threads.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention Falco/Wolf. Need to see at least one of them. Preferably Wolf since I'm more worried about Mr. O'Donnell over Mr. Lombardi. Plus, Wolf is my favorite Star Fox character, so that reason too.

Speaking of Pikachu, if this isn't an alt costume Sakurai has committed a horrible sin

It doesn't matter if Pikachu gets alternate costumes or not, the only one I'm going to use is:

Does anyone use any other of Pikachu's alts? It's easily the best one. Let the online Pika alt color war begin I suppose.
