Choose your favorite character and tell me how he/she is downplayed.

 

[Coolboy6]

I’ll go first
The player should be 9-C because he struggled to break a tree

 

[Confluctor]

10-C Sentry. He is just an overweight drug addict

 

[WrongIdea21]

10 -C Shanks. He was Bitten by Sea Eel.

 

[Randomlamdom]

Sana futaba is 10-c, she got knocked out by being hit with paint

 

[manu_zarri]

Johnny Joestar 10-C normally (cannot walk), 9-B with Act 1 to 3 (just bullets) possibly 9-A with Act 4 (it's punch and it's strong now) Unknown with IR ("it uses hax")

 

[Naito-desu]

All Dark Souls protagonists should be ranked at most 9-B because gravity kills them

 

[StrymULTRA]

Classic one:

Flowey should be 10-C as he struggles to literal human kids.

 

[Jackof_noTrades068]

10-B up to 9-C with Shamash for Kevin because he uses guns and uses swords
So he can’t be any higher than 9-C

 

[SMASHssf2]

Lucas 10-C because a Mole Cricket can hurt him

 

[UltraChair]

Lucas 10-C because a Mole Cricket can hurt him

He loses 1 hp from Negative Man, who is a rectangle, shapes are 2-D, who the heck gets even slightly harmed by a shape, he is clearly 11-A. This is consistent as the Player is an actual entity in the Mother series, meaning that Lucas is canonically just a sprite on a video game.

True!

 

[Bernkastelll]

rimuru is literally a slime, so yeah, 10-C

 

[Justkillme42069]

frisk 10-C since they're a child and the only reason they're able to fight monsters (who are naturally much weaker than humanity anyway) is because they target their soul and not their body so if you slap them they're dead, the flowers broke their fall into mt ebott so that doesn't count, them dodging actual sound doesn't count since the attacks in-battle aren't meant to be taken literally (not necessarily that wrong), and they're mindless since they're just a puppet for the player and they never act of their own accord, the only times where it seems that way were just chara possessing them

 

[StekFence]

Seiya is below human level, because someone stronger than him was killed by a human in one hit

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Goku should only be planet level in Z, we've only seen DBZ characters blow up planets.
Also Yusuke Urameshi is mountain level at best

 

[SheevShezarrine]

Guts is like 9-B at most physically cuz his only striking feat without swords is breaking part of a wall, and eyeballing it it seems like most of the stuff he tanks is still within 9-B. Plus he's just a human so he can't be very powerful physically, kinda like with Castlevania

 

[Jackof_noTrades068]

Goku should only be planet level in Z, we've only seen DBZ characters blow up planets.
Also Yusuke Urameshi is mountain level at best

Goku should only be Mountain level really
We never see Goku himself accomplish feats near planet level in Z he just scales to those that do
Which means Goku fighting anyone who has accomplished planet busting or has said statement is an outlier
So he shouldn’t scale to Vegeta, Frieza or Buu

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

They wear light armor, ride a horse, and use lances, he can't be any more than 10-A physically, 9-C with weapons, lmao


Also in FEH he can be hurt by curtains so he's 10-C at best

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Yo based?

 

[ThatOneMofo]

Galacta Knight should only 10-C as he consistently loses to a stupid pink pillow who takes more than 1 hit too destroy a bubble

Also human level Goku?

 

[Jackof_noTrades068]

Also human level Goku?

Yes

 

[GoCommitDi]

SpongeBob is 10-C because he has struggled to lift two teddy bea- oh wait...

I like Hank j. wimbleton so i don't have to do anything because the wiki already has

 

[theultimate5105]

All naruto characters peak at 9-C because bullets are too powerful for the verse and they max out at peak human speed

 

[fancykingkirby]

I have a gun whats a ninja gonna do

 

[SheevShezarrine]

Geralt is like Street level at best cuz he got killed by a shit-stained peasant with a pitchfork

 

[Jackof_noTrades068]

Tanjiro Kamado should only be 10-A he got stabbed by a normal guy using a basic self defense knife

 

[QuasiYuri]

Everyone in Homestuck is below 9-C; the big bad can be hurt by swords and bullets.

 

[fancykingkirby]

Everyone in bfdi is 10-C because they are all objects

 

[MonkeyOfLife]

All monkeys

 

[UltraChair]

GT Goku lost to a child in a fight, and needed to go SSJ4 to push a building.

10-C GT Goku, 8-C as a Super Saiyan 4.

 

[Bernkastelll]

Kumoko is literally a spider, 10-C then

 

[theultimate5105]

Rimuru is a slime so 10-C since slimes are fodder

 

[Imaginym]

Mew resembles a cat fetus, therefore, it is as incapable as an unborn domestic housecat species cat.

Also, they're not my favorite, but I did a whole essay dedicated to irrationally downplaying the Creation Trio that I'm perhaps irrationally proud of:

It's purely based on Pokedex entries, & if you wanna read the full essay, go to this post:

If you want only the conclusions:

TL;DR - (Sort of)

1. Palkia can't do more than distort space, & can only to do Spatial Manipulation for transportation involving the boundaries of the universe, is weaker than any Legendary not from Sinnoh, is weakened if it's not in the gap in the spatial dimension parallel to ours, hyperventilates if it gets into a fight in a futile attempt to prevent space collapsing, & is only THOUGHT of as a deity, & in fact lacks any deity-like powers at all.

2. Dialga's Time Manipulation is inapplicable in Vs Threads because it has only one kind of Power to Control Time & we don't know which kind of power to control time it is. Dialga is also too weak & forgettable to mention, except in passing in ancient legends. Dialga is also prone to heart attacks if it tries to stop or rewind time, & in fact, only controls the flow (The motion), so it isn't even supposed to manage whether time is stopped or started, & it can only time travel to the past or future of the 1 timeline it's in. Dialga also couldn't break out of an egg before time started, making it weaker than most newborns.

3. Giratina doesn't live in another dimension, but the underside of Earth's crust under Sinnoh, having no control over any dimension. When banished for being violent, it wasn't strong enough to return, being unable to do more than stare angrily. Also, being banished to the Distortion World means it isn't seen as a threat to it, so Giratina can't destroy rocks, trees, dirt & other plants. Giratina is also one of the dumbest Pokemon, having lived in a world without common knowledge that's distorted & strange, so it likely can't properly use logic, either.

4. Arceus had to be born where there was nothing that could hurt it, to be safe, was born after the big bang, & thus, could have been killed not only by the Big Bang, but also the contents of it; Arceus had to travel carefully to avoid being killed by slightly chilly space, gently floating rocks & spread out radiation. It only created Earth, & had to do so manually with its thousand arms, for it lacks efficiency & supernatural abilities to do so itself, which also suggests Arceus is incompetent without the aid of the Unown, it's supposed 1,000 arms. It also means it encountered no other Pokemon, because, of course, even Pokemon from space like Staryu & Cleffa interacting with it would gravely threaten poor Arceus's life.

Yu Narukami gets beaten up by children

He also bullies mothers

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Iron Man is 11-A because he's just fiction

Azathoth is 10-C because he's a spaghetti that I can just eat
