:::As I said, the proposal I linked to earlier reached consensus on special moves both using their most recent names and being an exception to the "fan names override official names if they're more popular" rule we have. I was always under the impression that those were separated due to the different custom moves, but I guess that distinction makes more sense in this context.

:::::Guess I completely missed that discussion, or forgot to respond to it. I wouldn't have assumed Wolf's got split because of customs, but rather because of Fox's and Falco's getting split. Either way, I guess it doesn't really matter now.

'''Oppose though I like Miles' idea'''. Charizard's is more similar to Super Dragon in that it has a restricted moveset; Lucario's is more similar to Wario-Man where it keeps its moveset but it becomes stronger. The Landmasters are near-carbon copies with some parameters tweaked, same with the Starstorms. Counters are the same except maybe duration and effect. Zero Lasers are just recolors. Roy's Critical Hit is different but not as different as the Mega Evolutions. The Blasters all have separate pages with the characters in brackets despite being even more similar than the Mega Evolutions. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 19:59, April 6, 2021 (EDT) | '''Oppose though I like Miles' idea'''.

'''Oppose'''. I agree with Aidan above that nearly or entirely-identical moves should be merged. These two are entirely different moves. I also believe they should be moved to "Mega Evolution (Charizard)" and "Mega Evolution" (Lucario).

'''Oppose''', with the same arguments as above. In fact, I do think the Zero Lasers should also be split, since they also do function very differently, in spite of the superficial aesthetic similarity; one is an aim and shoot attack from the background while the other is a stage-sweeping beam shot while Samus stays on the stage. But that's perhaps a discussion better left for the Zero Laser talk page. --[[User:Rdrfc|Rdrfc]] ([[User talk:Rdrfc|talk]]) 03:43, April 7, 2021 (EDT) | |||
'''Rename instead of merge''' Mega Lucario and Mega Charizard are different in every way except the name. If anything, Zero Laser and Critical Hit should be split instead of being used as an argument to merge these two.

'''Oppose (perfer move)''' I don't really have much to say that hasn't already been said, I perfer the pervious move suggestion - [[User:Sorrylinkicantgivegredit|Sorrylinkicantgivegredit]] ([[User talk:Sorrylinkicantgivegredit|talk]]) 20:39, April 9, 2021 (EDT) | |||
'''Oppose (Rename instead of Merge)''' It should separate pages because they only share their names in common.

'''Oppose''' per Miles and Omega Tyrant. If the names are really such a concern, call them "Mega Evolution (Pokemon name)". Even then, the current names feel much better, at least to me. The proposal draws a completely false equivalence between these moves and the other Final Smashes in that these aren't the same moves, have never been linked as such, and never will be. --[[File:PlagueSigImage.png|20px]][[User:Plague von Karma|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Plague'''</span>]][[User talk:Plague von Karma|<span style="color: #e68;">''' von Karma'''</span>]][[File:PlagueSigImage.png|20px]] 04:14, May 16, 2021 (EDT) | |||
'''Oppose''' I agree with Miles. In order for Final Smashes to merge, they must be similar in not only name, but also in function.

'''Oppose''' Like Miles said, merging final smash pages that are completely different is a bad idea. These two final smashes have nothing in common aside from their name and the mechanic of being mega evolutions. By extension, I also oppose moving the pages to "Mega Evolution ([Pokémon name])", which I'll get more into detail if a discussion does open up to rename them like many users are suggesting.

Since opposition to merging so far has been clear and near unanimous, I am going to start the discussion for moving now. | |||
Personally, I '''support''' moving the page to [[Mega Evolution (Charizard)]]. --[[User:Rdrfc|Rdrfc]] ([[User talk:Rdrfc|talk]]) 16:31, May 31, 2021 (EDT) | |||
:'''Support'''. I’ve always preferred and pushed for official terminology when it comes to move names. This one sits in the same camp as the rest of them.

:'''Slight oppose''': While yes, Smash itself uses "Mega Evolution", I see no problem with leaving it as Mega Charizard X (and Mega Lucario) as that is still the official names for these final smashes. I don't see the point of going through the hassle of renaming these other than to match the name used in Smash. In Charizard's case, it makes it more clear which form it is since he has 2 forms. The only real reason to move this is if we're absolutely insistent on using the name Smash does, otherwise there's no harm in leaving this the way it is.

::'''Support'''. Unofficial terms should purely be for etymology that would be hard to understand if the official term was used. This is neither, so yes, both this and the other mega evolution page should be renamed. [[Special:Contributions/72.219.72.215|72.219.72.215]] 21:57, June 21, 2021 (EDT) | |||
