All the Lions will roar in unison, sending large vibrations into the tower causing the Pokemon to loose balance and break apart

A magikarp would shut that shit down real quick

All the Lions will roar in unison, sending large vibrations into the tower causing the Pokemon to loose balance and break apart

Hmmm:

• L = 10 Log10 (E 10^(Ln/10)
• L = 10 log10 (10^(114/10))
• 10^11.4 = 251,188,643,150.958
• L = 10 log10 (251,188,643,150.95 * 1,000,000,000)
• L = 204 Decibels

So Nuclear Bomb levels of sound. Though all the lions probably die from this level of noise ngl.

Now if only there weren't tens or probably hundreds of Pokémon that can eat that amount of force for breakfast

To illustrate my point

Now if only there weren't tens or probably hundreds of Pokémon that can eat that amount of force for breakfast

Enter: This silly boi:

"Loudred's bellowing can completely decimate a wood-frame house. It uses its voice to punish its foes. This Pokémon's round ears serve as loudspeakers."

"It positions the round speakers on its head to assail foes with ultrasonic waves at massive volume. It builds power by stomping the ground."

"When it stamps its feet and bellows, it generates ultrasonic waves that can blow apart a house"

"The shock waves from its cries can tip over trucks. It stamps its feet to power up."

 

[Da3ggman]

There's several problems with that particular solution. First is that you can't just brute force becoming the most relevant wiki through sheer quality, especially for something as subjective as powerscaling. We wouldn't be getting the same kind of traffic that the regular side does. Effectively, a move of that nature would just create yet another VS Battles bootleg, just with us on it, while the original get's replacements in the form of new user traffic. And we've all seen how well most VS rip off have done.

Second is the sheer quantity of work that'd be required to get our nearly 37k pages ported over to another wiki format. And third is that it would all need to be done on the down low, let FANDOM view it as us undermining one of their biggest sources of clicks and booting us off themselves.

I ain’t reading all that

Mate, you don't need Pokedex statements for that.

Magikarp survived the lake-draining, earthquake-making bomb blast Team Plasma did. I'm very sure even without the Pokedex, there's NPC statements indicating Magikarp is weak. & even then, evolutionary stage scaling.

Numerous Pokemon scale to casually moving huge boulders via Strength, swiftly cleaving through trees in one-shot with Cut, breaking boulders with Rock Smash....
Heck, Ride Pokemon show Pokemon can be trained to do that effortlessly & constantly, with Sharpedo & Taurous easily breaking boulders.
Several humans have boulder-breaking statements in their dialogue, & most Pokemon are equal or superior to humans in their world.

Pretty sure one route had a blizzard stated to be caused by an Abomasnow on it.

Rayquaza has 1 of its biggests feats in a cutscene, not to mention Kyogre flooding the world & Groudon making an artificial sun.

Dialga & Plakia destabilize time/space on-screen, as part of their storyline, & Giratina's dimensional travel is similarly shown, & many NPCs talk about their role in the cosmology.
Arceus creating members of the trio is also part of a cutscene.

Kyurem froze Lacunosa Town as part of the story, & IIRC, froze the player character on-screen.
Kyurem, possibly along wtih Reshiram & Zekrom (Depending on which statements you take, since Pokedex is exclded.) survived the meteor impact that created the Giant Chasm, albeit, seemingly also splitting apart from The Original Dragon into the 3 Unovan Legendary Dragons.

Tornadus & Thundurus passively alter the weather of the route they're on.

I don't remember the dialogue exactly, Xerneas & Yveltal's powers are part of Lysandre's plan, he intended on using their life-related abilities, so it's safe to say Yveltal could still wipe out huge swaths of populace, or Xerneas grant immortality, even without the Pokedex.

Lunala & Solgaleo have a cutscene/story about them fighting Ultra Beasts, & a cutscene of them fighting base Necrozma, who, as Ultra Necrozma, absorbed all of Ultra Space's light.

Eternatus creates a huge storm, destabilizes time & space, & both it & Zacian & Zamazenta, IIRC (Or at least just Zacian & Zamazenta.), have Power Nullification for every move in the series; Lions ain't doing jack to that.

Oh & a Great Tusk/Iron Treads broke out of Area Zero's fortified walls.

Pecharunt can mind control humans & Pokemon alike.

Terapagos is passively the source of the Terastal Phenomenon, & I'm pretty sure there's a statement for this. Quote from Briar or such. Thus, Terapagos would scale to amping up all the Tera Raid Pokemon, who can take beyond-Champion-level Pokemon in 4vs1s.

All of the Pokemon using moves that amount to natural disasters like Rock Slide, Earthquake, Twister, Hurricane, Surf....

ALL THIS IS WITH JUST GAME CANON & NO POKEDEX STATEMENTS, YOU DON'T NEED JACK TO BEAT LIONS.

For the future:

While the comment wasn't that bad, I edited it out anyways to avoid the issue. Keep that in mind moving forwards.

Fair enough (thanks for being merciful).

I'm sure the articles you sent are a good read, but unfortunately they were written by TVTropes users, who speak the forsakened american language, instead of the God-given one, so I can't understand any of the words.

Damn. (Imagine if they had an option to translate/convert UK English and US English in Chrome...)

what

The "Unpopular Opinions and (Friendly) Rant thread" lore thickens

Said (FinePoint's) fiance is Queen (stating this in case peeps think I stalked Fine in real life), and yeah I friended them both on Discord.

Well apparently they bonded over both being heavily autistic.

All 3 of us and a lot of other peeps are neurodivergent here so yeah it's easier to relate due to similar lived experiences, so yee.

The janitors are breathing down his neck, straight up gangstalking Mahek.

Janitors Staff (though real janitors deserve respect too).
I'd send memetic links from either TVTropes or Youtube about Vladimir Shmondenko but then again...
(Also they be stalking, I be making connections and collecting intel while sharing my own intel hence ensuring transparency and honesty so said connections can be further strengthened, it's a win-win.)

Wow, so everyone here has a chance to not die alone.

Hope that's true.

I am pretty tall irl 6ft5 (198cm for people who use cringe units) which is nice and all but its impossible to find shoes to wear cause I am size 15/16. Clothes are also annoying. Dont fit in airplanes, gotta duck doors in older buildings or going down stairs.

cm measure is NOT cringe you ‘merican

I'm smol/small/short (158-161cm, height measurement machines fluctuate a bit, probably depends on whether my head is level enough and/or amount of hair welp).
AND METRIC SI UNITS ARE NOT CRINGE, IMPERIAL UNITS ARE CRINGE!

I didn't get the job

My condolences, good luck in future endeavours.

Meh it's fine, I'm not really in need of a job rn since I'm still in uni. It was just a position I really liked and wanted to try my luck, nothing too serious

I only graduated University last year, you have time!

Since it is Pride Month, my next collection of harem anime is My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! It’s going to be so peak. MC has a harem of both genders, makes it even better. Love that isn’t bound by notions such as gender, true love that transcends gender.

Happy pride month everyone
Remember your sexual orientation or gender is valid no matter what anyone tries to tell you
You're just as human as the rest of us even if some people can't see that

Happy pride month!
(Also Grabbing Dragon should look into pansexuality perhaps in addition to genderfluidity and whatnot in both real life and fiction)
In extension of DaMonkeMan's sentiments, we're all living beings and on an even broader encompassing scale we all exist so:

Might as well just appreciate/care about everything in general welp (both existing and non-existing stuff, regardless of what is considered existing or non-existing)

There's a fly next to me. Idk what he doig

Just ask him??

Him Them? It? Would be interesting extrapolating human ideas on genders and sexes to other living creatures (particularly the hermaphrodites in nature)...

Eat it

'GREE

... If it were tsetse flies or biting midges you'd technically be eating your own blood (if they bit you first) + also ingesting potentially dangerous pathogens welp. (African trypanosomiasis for example in the tsetse fly's case.)
Before anyone sends a meme about flies always looking like they're rubbing their limbs together as if they're planning devious stuff (I was tempted to but this would be more informative) this may provide insight:

Oh that makes a lot more sense, ngl tho I wouldn't be surprised if you knew them irl

 

[Mahek_The_Assassin_Silent_Killer]

They live in the US (though Queen is also German), I live in Singapore (and every end of year temporarily in India with my extended family), so not very likely (different timezones and continents), though would be nice to.

Also you should probably never double text for anything, these are companies but I doubt they're so unbelievably busy they can't take a few seconds to read these submissions
Best to move on to the next one imo
Anyway I wish you luck though
