Mega Dragonite and New “Legends: Z-A” Characters and Features Revealed!

character designers keep going tf off!!! i love how Naveen (fashion designer) is paired with Scraggy ‘cuz that line wears its snakeskin like pants & a hoodie, and Lida (dancer) is paired with Staryu ‘cuz that guy can spin and spin like a dancer!!!
 
Emma returning in ZA means we might see her robot suit, Essentia,back.
I liked the Looker subplot in XY, I'll be happy to see more of Emma and Essentia.
 
Gamefreak actually had to design Dragonite like that because they're scared of being sued under JP law if they design something that comes close to an existing fanart. Which there have to be thousands of. We've known this for a decade, it's why we don't have Mega Flygon, and yet people make more speculative arts that reduce the possible design space.

Why does it have to be Mega flygon? Why can't it be gigantamax or regional variant?

Lmao 🤣
 
All right fun story. When I was a kid and me and my brothers would watch Pokemon every Saturday morning and we were you know big fans. We're watching that episode and we're thinking they're fudging trolling you. We thought that it was like a clear misdirect and that would be like nobody
 
Dragonite always looked like an orange Barney with wings. It was cool but also not, so this mega seems fitting. Dragonite is a derpy, friendly dragon, nothing too serious (just don’t anger it).

I still think the theory that Dratini and Dragonair were part of something different before Dragonite still stands true, design wise especially.
 
Why is it fans hate on pokemon when they cook and roll over when they do the bare minimum??? The Dragonite hate is so undeserved, it looks silly but cohesive with its line. This is just like gen 5 and gen 7 again.
 
doesn't it drive you just a little nuts that mega dragonite looks kinda like a watered down version of all the speculative fanart people have done over the years

I can't tell if it's a good thing that so many artists were tuned in to the idea or a bad thing that it was so predictable.
No, it actually looks much more inspired, and I write so after looking comparatively at the few fan arts I had always loved of dragonite variants.

The one Pokémon made is very nice, looks harmonious and original, with neat references.
 
I was initially disappointed at how minimal the changes to mega dragonite were looking like, but taking a second glance for more than a sec, I really appreciate what they did.

The seraphim, winged serpent, fairy and dragonair references blend so well together. Base dragonite looks disproportionate, while this new one is more harmonious with the bigger wings and a gigantic tail that counterbalances the bulky body.

I'm not a big dragonite fan but this mega is a win, Subtle yet noticeable changes. I only hope that the shiny is different, could take dragonair's blue.
