Big Pokémon Revisions Part 2

A bit random, but i think Dugtrio's earthquake feat is not legit. The Yellow Pokédex suggests that it's allegorical, and that it's not a real earthquake.
 
I feel as though usin the old aproach of categorizing fully evolved Pokemon is necessary for the sake scaling trainers. I'm thinking Pokemon such as Marowak should have to keys one scaling to the "adolescent" to represent a freshly evolved/wild specimen and a seperate one scaling to the fully evolved to represent a sufficiently trained specimen.
 
@SuperKamiNappa that's unneccesary, as trainers are scaled based on level and the most powerful pokemon they have at a certain point in game
 
First stage pokemon should at least 8-A

From Rhyhorn's feats and the fact that with Low 7-B mid stages, the tier jump is so big that scaling look paintful
 
I can handle the trainer scaling, i just need time to set it based on the new scaling.
 
Also, Horsea can learn Twister before becoming a Seadra, and Twister was rated at 8-A+ here.

About the trainers, I wanted to do it myself since I was who created the original scaling for them and always said that I wanted to update them

Adding to this, Diglett and Numel can learn Earth Power before evolving, which is also 8-A+
 
At the time Pikachu did the 8-A+ feat, it was considered as a first stage since Pichu was not created.

That was anime, so it has nothing to do with games
You should disccuss it with Howard, which told me that the profiles are composited with all conuterpart like Darkrai, who is 2-C via Poképark and Mystery Dungeon.
 
Also Darkrai and Cresselia and 7 Lucario should be at least 2-C since Darkrai fought Primal Dialga and the PMD Party that fought Primal Dialga, Dialga [Movie] and Palkia, which survived an attack, but ended up without memories.
 
Well a lot of attacks from a 2-C can damage an at least 2-C being, so it's better to leave things this way.

For legendaries and mythical, I and Cal discussed that and agreed that regular pokemon won't scale from their anime counterpart
 
So just to make sure...

Low 7-B Pokemon like Xatu, Porygon, and Durant, right? Because the ones who are currently 8-A are getting the upgrade?

From Rhyhorn Pokédex:
Strong, but not too bright, this POKéMON can shatter even a skyscraper with its charging TACKLES.

Its body is clad in a thick hide, and its tackles topple buildings. Unfortunately, it is not smart.

Strong, but not too bright, this Pokémon can shatter even a skyscraper with its charging Tackles.

So, Rhyhorn does not oneshot the skyscraper, not even violent fragmentation.
Is nobody going to respond to this?

EDIT:

Okay so "shattered", to me, strongly implies violent fragmentation. Even if Rhyhorn does use multiple hits, he has to be able to take out significant portions of a skyscraper in order for it to be a notable feat, as it would be ridiculous for me to make the claim that he's just headbutting the wall for six hours.

Even then, "buildings" is still plural in the second entry.

I personally think 8-C to High 8-C is fine for Rhyhorn here.
 
I'm also in support of the 8-A revisions for Stage 1 Pokemon, barring the likes of Caterpie and Weedle. Giving them a High 8-C ranking is generous enough.
 
Don't knkw but high 8-C baby is debunked, the calculation cal did used an incorrect method , proper method gets half a ton , but I redid it and got 2 and 7 tons but applying it to cleffa is the problem .
