Maybe a note to reference such notion being in the verse page? Or maybe add "average" next to the mons it scales to.
Yeah, but a calc is still needed and we require proof of such electricity moving at a realistic speed.
I see, I'll make a CRT to correct it.
There are several actually, first of all Machamp lifting a mountain, but iirc it was left to it and those who specifically scale to it. There are some related to the HM Strength and maybe some dex entry could be calced, because as of now non-psychich mons shouldn't scale to Meowstick.
There is actually 1 that was considered notable.
It was also calculated surprisingly long ago:
I recall something about blog comments getting deleted en masse site-wide years ago, so that may be why it doesn't have comments. But this seems like at least a Priority 3 Calc to be evaluated, as it's for a semi-important statistic that's relevant for at least 1 species.
I need to pothole/pigeonhole/whatever this link or else the forum's system STUPIDLY turns the colon followed by the D in @DontTalk's VSBW Fandom username into a : D (No space.) emote, breaking the link.
In case they're relevant, other entries on the topic:
| Ruby | Swampert is very strong. It has enough power to easily drag a boulder weighing more than a ton. This Pokémon also has powerful vision that lets it see even in murky water. |
|---|
Frustratingly, IDK if this is a metric or imperial tonne; The English version uses imperial, but the original Japanese text uses metric.
| Sapphire | Swampert predicts storms by sensing subtle differences in the sounds of waves and tidal winds with its fins. If a storm is approaching, it piles up boulders to protect itself. |
|---|
| Emerald | If it senses the approach of a storm and a tidal wave, it protects its seaside nest by piling up boulders. It swims as fast as a jet ski. |
|---|
| Y | It can swim while towing a large ship. It bashes down foes with a swing of its thick arms. |
|---|
| Scarlet | Its arms are hard as rock. With one swing, it can break an enormous boulder into pieces. |
|---|
| Violet | Swampert’s arms are rock-hard. With one swing, they can batter down Swampert’s foes. This Pokémon makes its nest on beautiful beaches. |
|---|
Who knows how relevant that is, though. Also, for some reason, the calc isn't linked on Swampert's own profile. I'd assume because of lack of evaluations verifying its usability; Even if it was evaluated as acceptable in the past, it might not look good if there's no evaluation present any more.
1 other thing is that Swampert does this while swimming; Water Pokemon tend to be better when in water than not for a lot of their feats, it seems.
Ergo, we don't know if Swampert is stronger while swimming than it is while not swimming, & if so, is that its peak, or is it being boosted?
On the topic of 1st stage LS, I forget where Class K comes from (Using Strength, maybe?) if we ever need a backup feat, Machop can throw 100 adult humans.
| Y | Its whole body is composed of muscles. Even though it's the size of a human child, it can hurl 100 grown-ups. |
|---|
| Omega Ruby | Machop's muscles are special—they never get sore no matter how much they are used in exercise. This Pokémon has sufficient power to hurl a hundred adult humans. |
|---|
| Sword | Its whole body is composed of muscles. Even though it's the size of a human child, it can hurl 100 grown-ups. |
|---|
IDK if it's valid to do so, but even 100 average adult humans would be 5,000 kg or more, & the LS rating for throwing them may be higher when accounting for force, which I recall seeing done in some calcs.
