You mean this?

OK, so Godzilla is Skilled in Hand to Hand Combat and has a good enough Healing factor for him to pin down and Murder Rape Tyranitar with his Higher Lifting Strength and Atomic Breath.
 
Here is how it goes:

  • Grabs opponent.*
  • Lifts them off their feet via superior lifting strength.*
  • Places them on their back and keeps them from getting up via being heavier than their lifting strength and via superior lifting strength, else they'll either lift the attack or struggle their limbs free.*
Bam, that's a pin.

It's basically just putting them down then keeping them from getting up by any form of physical immobilization that requires your own physical effort.
 
Tyranitar is also skilled in hand to hand, experienced in general, his stamina shrugs off the radiation for a couple hours and his intelligence is probably on par with regular pokemon.


Earlier in the thread, it was kinda made clear that both Tyranitar and Godzilla need to do something a bit more elaborate than their basic skills because the fight is more than a bit close.
 
It's hard to say how strong a beam should be compared to a charge up phase that does damage. Without a measurement of the beam itself, there is no way to tell if the beam is just a concentration of all of that energy in one spot, or it's actually a separate but related stronger force or stronger by having the overflowing heat only be a fraction of the stored heat, or it's weaker by being an inefficient conversion, but still makes up for it for being concentrated.

I would say that the default assumption is to simply assume that the blast is just all that energy concentrated in one spot... Same AP, but concentrated so it can hurt mountain durability characters who would shrug off the heat from the charge up simply because they only experience a fraction of the latter's total energy.

In short:

Has the blast itself been calculated and is it more than the charge up? Otherwise, do we know exactly how the charge up and blast work so we can apply logic to it?
 
The issue with the film's actual AP depictions of the beam show often building-town level destructive feats. However, something to note is that Megaguirus tanked said heat, absorbed it and shot it back to Godzilla. Godzilla tanks this but falls over. On top of this, Godzilla killed Megaguirus with two blasts of atomic breath when they actually landed.


Also there is a calculation of the Dimension Tide putting it in the gigations range, which Godzilla's atomic breath was able to draw.

Tbf building-level is sort of thrown out the window since the original era had one-hundred thousand degree heat.

OT

Addressing the chargeup, Godzilla's dorsal spines in question display high-temperature radiation. There is no concussive force, therefore it acts ineffective on foes that are heavily irradiated, or otherwise mutated against nuclear means.

Now it needs to be cleared up that Movie Godzilla produces attacks differently than Anime Shonen. Not at all dismissing his capabilities, Nuclear Pulse is such an attack, its just as a named ability in Toho lore, not in the mannerism of a side-effect shockwave.

To clarify, his radioactivity does work to melt things, however only when powerful, in specific circumstances.

Should traditional portrayal from past movies not be enough, this Godzilla is explicitly thermonuclear. Plasma is additionally stated in the movie as his new reason for attacking Tokyo, as it was his energy in the previous continuity, Godzilla 2000, therefore ponderings of AP limiting mechanics need not be.
 
It makes me wonder if Tyranitar would resist the breath and if so, to what extent, in addition to the special defence increase that is offered by sandstorm. Since Tyranitar resists the fire type.
 
Also I should say this. When Megaguirus drained him, it stopped Godzilla when he exerted to fire a beam at her, pulling back Goji's concussive force from his maw, with the rads, heat and all. But did not withstand Godzilla's breath when it came to direct confrontation.

Megaguirus fired a plasma glob half Godzilla's size, which Godzilla fell from, but didn't get any lasting injury.

So the bug was the glass cannon, and not Godzilla at all.
