Mega able
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Implemented → Mega ableI find this idea a rather blatant way to try and make megas seem OP. I'm not really sure how I can say I don't support for reasons other than this: making Pokemon suddenly not able to hold items because you think they'll be OP will then trickle down to people saying make legendaries not hold battle items either. Then most people's teams will be messed up and you'll have more people complaining about this.
So, no support, and the whole reasoning for trying to weaken mega able Pokemon seems a bit silly by saying they can't hold items. That affects more than just battling, means I can't give my mega any items to hold now. It's not needed.
In X and Y you need the mega stone because that is what determines the Pokemon turning mega for a few turns before going back to normal.
Therefore the megas on Pokeheores can have an empty slot, because they'll never revert to their old form if you take a mega stone away since the mega stone disappears like a regular Evo. Stone, so making it hold one for no reason is not needed. That's like saying making an eevee hold a fire stone even after it evolves for no reason, or a soothe bell, or a leaf stone. There is no reason.
