I remember you being unhappy with G-Max forms taking the place of 3rd evolutions, at the time while I more or less agreed with your sentiment, it didn't bother me. I've just now actually finally realized that ONLY POKEMON CAUGHT AS THEIR G-MAX FORM CAN USE G-MAX FORMS. For me this is where I draw the line, I was excited for getting my Grimsnarl G-Maxed, finding out that if I want that, I'm going to have to catch a new one that's already evolved...Kinda just sucks. It's just shiny pokemon 2.0.
Yeah, that’s pretty disappointing. Going back to my whole thing with the Applin line: I don’t have a lot of incentive to use my one-of-a-kind evolutionary item knowing my pokemon can never reach its True Final Form. Using it at all would require breeding the Perfect Applin first, and it would still get outshined by something that can only be caught in the wild.
