Mega Stone Customization Examples Hey guys! We've been working on some of the megastone adjustments and just wanted to check in with y'all before we get too deep into this! A lot of the game stat boost are really spread out, and since we're keeping a cap of 1.6 total stat boosts for the megastones, this could mean a lot of 1.1 adjustments. This can be pretty disappointing for some, and we've had complaints over the math in the system already, so we just wanted to confirm whether you guys wanted a system directly reflective of the game, or a slightly more simplified version with some of the stat changes being adjusted according to their moves, and the system, to simplify the amount of math some. Examples of each are below : ) "Reflective of the Game" Examples  Abomasite: Effect: Mega Evolves Abomasnow
Increases Attack and Sp. Attack by 1.2, and Defense and Sp. Def by 1.1, each Aerodactylite: Effect: Mega Evolves Aerodactyl
Increases Attack by 1.2, and Sp. Attack, Defense, Sp. Defense, and Speed by 1.1 Salamencite: Mega Evolves Salamence
Increases Attack by 1.3, and Sp. Attack, Defense, and Speed by 1.1 Garchompite: Mega Evolves Garchomp
Increases Attack by 1.2, and Sp. Attack, Defense, Sp. Defense, and Speed by 1.1"Simplified" Examples Abomasite: Effect: Mega Evolves Abomasnow

I have a question! Or a concern maybe :p I only noticed because I love absol <3
I noticed back when there was a post for this the first time, for abosolite it had the boost being 1.3 for attack, 1.1 sp.attack, and 1.2 speed (I think). But the actual boosts the stones give those attacks in the games is +20, 40, 40. So even though attack is the highest stat, it seems like the boost should favor special attack over normal attack O:
So I was kinda wondering, are you basing the stats on the changes, or on the overall highest stats a pokemon has? I'd like to vote that it is based on the changes! (But whatever you beautiful peoples choose I'll be happy because custom stones are so cool! )

(But whatever you beautiful peoples choose I'll be happy because custom stones are so cool! ) It's generally based on their overall, because we want them to be reflective of what the creators thought that pokemon should be 'strongest' in, so to speak : ) Sometimes it may vary a bit due to the differences in our system, but that's the point we start at for figuring it out Thank you for asking, though, and if the poll leans one way and other people voice the same interest, then we can consider looking at that alternative method of customization, too ^^

If there are times when two stats are the same, especially if its speed and another stat, are you guys always going to prioritize speed, or could you choose the other stat? (if speed already has a boost, I think other stats getting more of a boost is more helpful. But that might just be me! ) Let's see how the poll goes then 3nodding

We tried to allude to it with the above examples, but if speed is a boosted stat, sometimes even if it is one of the most boosted stats, it will generally only receive a boost of 1.1, because of the lesser priority most people give it, and, in general, the lower importance it plays in battles : )
