Why did Charizard get a gigantamax when it has a mega evolution?

Question

Well, It already has two really good megas. So why does it have a gigantamax? Well, I know that charizard is Leon's ace Pokemon but couldn't they just find another Pokemon for him?

lol true

Answer 1

Nostalgia sells. This is why Gamefreak focuses on Gen I a lot. Its most well known to the general public and nostalgic to older players. Charizard is arguably the most fan favourite of players or at least kids among the Gen I starters, being the cool dragon one and being one of Ash's most recognizable Pokemon in the anime. They try to appeal to the broad audience and older players by giving what they think everyone wants.

Answer 2

There is no other answer for this than just simply GameFreak Logic Sure, they could have chosen another ace for Leon but GameFreak decided to give him charizard. GameFreak just loves charizard. Don't worry about it.

Answer 3

Gamefreak tends to favor Charizard and other Gen 1 Pokemon.

For any real explaination, you already said it.
