I like Megas if only because it provides opportunity for Pokemon that are considered "weak" to be stronger especially in competitive battling, like you look up Charizard on the likes of Smogon and they praise the mega's to death while being all "Use normal charizard? No that's stupid don't do that".

Then of course Garchomp and Blaziken both got them despite being considered too OP.
