Gotta Revise 'Em All, Part 2: Getting to work

Mythical scaling will be hell to quantify, specially when they have most of the time zero feats/statements
Best thing we can do is slap a “At most low 7-B” to the ones that are featless, and maybe use the moment in the game where you can obtain some of them
For example, Celebi in the Crystal VC which you can only get after beating Lance
 
while the Legendary Birds and other featless Legendaries and Mythicals should scale to 1/3rd of that in absence of actual feats.
Yeah… no. The birds scaling to 1/3 of Lugia is anime-only, so that doesn’t apply to the games, and we can’t just scale featless legends and mythicals to the birds for no reason.
 
So... what do they scale to? Fully evolved regulars?
That’s what we need to figure out. I’ve heard that Moltres has a 6-C calc, but I don’t know where that is, and that’d give something for the Legendary Birds (and presumably the Legendary Beasts) to scale to.

As for the featless legends/mythicals… yeah, we need to figure that out.
 
So for Legendaries, Lugia is downgraded to High 6-C while the Legendary Birds and other featless Legendaries and Mythicals should scale to 1/3rd of that in absence of actual feats.
Why would they still be 1/3 if that scaling came only from the anime?

We could scale featless legends/mythicals to normal Pokémon such as Charizard or maybe even Tyranitar. As they should be too much weaker then non-legendary Pokémon.
 
Why though?
I think that's because of how they're considered more important compared to the regular mon but lack the feats/statements other Legendaries and Mythical Pokémon have.

Also speaking of featless Legendaries and Mythical Pokémon, I assume thanks to Legends Arceus that all the legendaries and Mythical Pokémon in there (Manaphy, Shaymin, Weather Genie Trio, ect.) will scale to Fully evolved mons, yes? And another thing, what should we do for the Legendaries and Mythicals that appear in the Post-Game? Do we scale them to the Creation Trio and the Lake Trio or should consider them outliers?
 
Weren't there some promising Pokédex entries for Dynamax mons?

Copperajah:
SwordSo much power is packed within its trunk that if it were to unleash that power, the resulting blast could level mountains and change the landscape.

Drednaw:
ShieldIn the Galar region, there's a tale about this Pokémon chewing up a mountain and using the rubble to stop a flood.

Rillaboom:
ShieldRillaboom has become one with its forest of drums and continues to lay down beats that shake all of Galar.

That said without the anime, is there anything in the games that states or implies Mega Evolution/Z-moves ~= Dynamax?

This was calced at High 7-C

Sounds like an overtime feat

That's 7-A

Nope, not really, there's Centiskorch and Coalossal's temperatures being higher but since regular fully-evolved mons are being bumped up to 6-C there aren't any feats that matter I think

And for your second question, they aren't even in the same games lol
 
Aren't most of the universes just different possibilities or something
Are the Pokemon rangers games in the game universes
 
So, I recently found out that Mega Heracross' Ultra Sun Pokedex mentions that it can lift 500 times it's own weight with it's horns, while a normal Heracross can lift 100 times their own weight with it's horn. Seeing as Heracross can use moves that specifically uses his horn (Horn Attack and Megahorn) and lifting things into the air (Seismic Toss), could we possibly use this as proof of Mega Evolutions being a 5x multiplier or no?

in LS maybe, but not in AP

it should only apply to lifting strength tbh
 
I wouldn't even do that. This seems wholly exclusive to Mega Heracross

For instance, Mega Alakazam actually gets physically weaker, since all its energy is converted into psychic power and it thus loses physical strength

I'm not sure if we really take the Pokedex's word at face value on Mega Evolutions, the afterall anime mostly supports the idea that the dark, harmful effects of Mega Evolution are a dark Game Freak joke, and not to be taken seriously. With the exception of Korrina's Lucario, the anime never shows a single Mega Evolved Pokémon as suffering from harmful side effects. Not even Ash's Lucario when it finally Mega Evolves goes through what Korrina's did (though, that could be a consequence of getting Mega Evolution too late in the series for that story to fit in).
 
question kukui should not have an anime profile considering that he became stronger from sm a journey equaling pikachu's z movement he himself surpassed steven's mega metagros
