TBH, do we really need more Alolan forms? GameFreak don't seem to know what they're doing. In gen 6, they introduced Mega Evolution and it was ok, even though some would argue it makes the Pokemon who get it absurdly strong compared to others. Now in gen 7 they found this new alternative to Mega Evolution in regional variants, but is it really an improvement? For one, most regional variants suck just as badly as the original form, some even worse. At least with Mega Evolution, you know that the pokemon that gets it will get a serious boost in power. I don't know, GameFreak just seems desperate to introduce new things but they don't seem to be thinking it through enough, as is the case with Mega Evolution, which they now seem to have cast aside and all but forget about. I'd much rather they came up with new pokemon instead of this regional variant cheese, or even mega evolution.
