After a rocky launch for Pokémon Go’s big new Mega Evolution feature, developer Niantic has promised to address widespread fan criticism of its implementation.
At present, Mega Evolution is temporary (as it is in Pokémon’s main series games) but requires a consumable resource named Mega Energy to unlock and continue using. This is primarily obtained from Go’s new tier of Pokémon raids.
Fans have said Mega Energy is being doled out too sparingly, which means a large number of raids are required to unlock each Mega Evolution. The rewards from each raid (a non-Mega Pokémon without its best moveset) and the requirement to battle it with as many people as possible to earn more Mega Energy have also been criticised.
