Baby bird vs military-grade airplane

Monkey Ace takes this. Taillow's biggest advantage being a small target, but that won't help much against sheer quantity of projectiles Flying Fortress can dish out. The only thing Taillow can do to win, is target the plane's engines with air based attacks. And even then, I think the plane won't get taken out if one or two engines are down. So, in conclusion Taillow gets shredded, before doing enough damage to the plane.

I vote Monkey Ace.
 
Eh, even with the high amount of projectiles, the bird has Double team and a few buffs/debuffs such as Agility.
Considering that AP is very close, Tailow is very small and nigh-impossible to hit with double team combined with Agility (two to four times amp.) and the fact that he is melee based (will bum-rush the plane so spamming bullets ain’t much of a big deal.)
Birb wins mid-low Diff.

I agree with this. Taillow's Stat Boosts net it the win in my opinion more times than not.
 
Just look at how much it can shoot. Even with 4x speed advantage dodging this would be a nightmare. Double team won't help much, since Fortress can target multiple enemies at once. The plane destroying itself could work, but Taillow could be killed before activating all of it's abilities and getting close enough.
 
For a larger creature maybe but if he needs to aim at a literal swallow more then 2 times as fast and with after images, that isn’t much.
Once the bird gets into CQC it’s pretty much over so the initial volley has to kill.
 
To be fair, the Flying Fortress is used to firing at smaller enemies, though of course they are far slower than Taillow
 
The bloons seem to be a fair bit bigger considering that they aren’t much smaller then the monkes, and as you said, slow (also no after images and they don’t fight back or even actively approach him.)
 
Flying Fortress FRA.

Even if Tailow would try to use agilty to try avoid the attacks, the sheer quantity and speed of the attacks, as well as the fact they literally home on the target, would give Tailow a very hard time to dodge it. In fact it's likely going to get hurt so many times it's likely won't even have enough ttime to properly act itself
 
I'm pretty sure Taillow also has Sand Attack, which lowers the enemies Accuracy. At least I think it does. Could've sworn I've fought Taillow with Sand Attack before.

Yeah, use Sand attack, on a plane. Right

Explain how that is going to change anything? Accuarcy doesn't matter since the attack is homing on the target, similar to Swift

Homing probably won’t work do to how fast the bird is and the size of the plane, (swallow is faster then the missles and will get into melee early on, if it flies between the wings or near the plane, the missles will hit the plane.) also it could as easily home in on an afterimage, so that ain’t helping.
 
There's also the chance Taillow aims directly for the Monkey because Pokemon are pretty aware of how Vehicles work. They need Drivers/Pilots.

Speed is equalized, and the plane can easily hit Pink Bloons, which are much faster than the plane.
Tailow won't be able to dodge the attacks due to the sheer amount of projectile thrown at it (that also home on Tailow).
Even with 4 times speed it's going to have a very hard time dodging.
SBA also put them pretty far away from each othet due to their range so Tailow would have to get close and it'll have a horrible time even trying to approach it
 
The pink bloons aren’t 4 times as fast, wielding after images, and bum rushing the plane itself.
The attacks of the planes home on Tailow regardless of how many after images it'll have. It's like how using double team is useless against aerial ace or swift.
 
Any evidence that the homing ignores after images?
Even then the 4 times speed gap is more then the plane has ever dealt with.
 
1) The attacks would go after the after images and destroy them

2) All attacks have non-physical interaction

3) It's attack speed is listed as Transonic, but can easily deal with Pink Bloons and DDTs, which are both Hypersonic in Speed. That is 5 times faster than Transonic and the plane can effortlessly destroy both

4) You act as if the speed boosts and after images are passive, in which they're not. Tailow would need to use Agility 3 times and Double Team multiple times before it could gain these boosts in speed and afterimages

5) Another thing is that the plane has camoflauge, making it very hard for Tailow to even find it in the first place. Not that it matters since it would be immediately attacked by the plane with so many projectiles that can deal with enemies 5 times faster than the plane consistently and home on the target in the same way swift home on the target in Pokemon
 
I mean they are very quick to use.
Taking out the after images would still take time to remove and NPI wouldn’t mean shit here since they aren’t even real, they aren’t ghosts or anything, they are just illusions/afterimages. He can always re-apply it any time. Also it would only take one use to make afterimages.

That is just either game mechanics at its finest or an error on the profile rather then evidence of it being able deal with opponents 5 times faster. It logically doesn’t work (especially since the balloons aren’t really fighting back, trying to dodge or apply afterimages.) even then base speed is equal, so that is also not important.

How would he camouflage in this environment? Even then the bird has enhanced senses on the profile (apparently Tailow also out ranges hard?)
 
Combat speed for the Bloons tower profiles isn't that well filled out. If I had the time, I would try and revise it, but I don't.

1) The plane fires literally hundreds of projectiles per second. Good luck trying to dodge that while all of these attacks home on Tailow

2) Double Team clones can be destroyed by Pokemon attacks, and since the plane has NPI, there's no reason they wouldn't hit the double team clones

3) It still starts with its base stats and will probably will not go into agility + double team right away. I have never seen any Tailow in the anime or games that battles like this

4) The Hypersonic DDTs and Pink Bloons both try to dodge attacks from the flying fortress but are popped effortlessly despite the plane having transonic travel speed due to its danmaku and homing attack.

Camouflage should honestly be removed, since I only put it there cause "black + night = camo"
 
Big monkey piloted airplane via homing danmaku. Also is said airplane able to use explosion manipulation? Only asking cause I haven’t upgraded that far ever so far.
