So to make things short, Pony Island is horribly wanked and its pages need to be deleted.
Now, let's dissect the main page of the verse, namely, The Devil
The page states the following:
Created and is vastly superior to Azazel.exe, Beelzebub.exe, and Asmodeus.exe, who guard the game's core files and have immense amounts of control over the world.
Yeah, but Azazel, Beelzebub and Asmodeus are mostly featless and have no showings of manipulating the entirety of the Game World, or anything of the sort. Azazel does absolutely nothing throughout the whole interaction the Player has with him, and is just deleted alongside the Core File guarded by him once all of the puzzles keeping it locked are solved, and Beelzebub is literally just a giant monster you defeat normally.
Especially Asmodeus, who is capable of manipulating the entire game, causing it to temporarily crash, altering data at will, etc.
Except that Asmodeus does nothing of the sort. He only asks you some questions and most of the "Reality Warping" he does consists of tricks used to distract your attention, like sending fake Steam messages and making it seem like the game crashed when in reality, it didn't. All of it is at best basic Information Manipulation that doesn't at all indicate he can manipulate all of the Game World or something.
Seems to exist on a higher level of reality to Hell/Purgatory/Pony Island, which he programmed as if they were games and which house countless souls
This one is 100% bullshit. Not only is there no evidence that Pony Island is an entire Universe, it is quite literally an in-universe game ran in an Arcade Machine which the Player Character, Theodore, operates throughout the story.
The Devil isn't some Transcendental God, he is just a guy who made an incredibly poorly-programmed videogame which runs on a literal Arcade Machine, putting him at Tier 2 because of that is effectively the same thing as putting every Human character in Wreck-it-Ralph at Tier 2.
Likely as old as time itself, though time has no meaning in Limbo.
This is actually contradicted in the game, as Theodore fell asleep for 331 years after destroying the second Core File guarded by Beelzebub.
Never actually harmed, as the entirety of Hell/Purgatory/Pony Island is literally just a game, to him
Not true in the slightest, since upon being freed of their imprisonment, the Souls trapped inside of Pony Island tear him apart as the game collapses around them, and as far as I am concerned, there is no evidence that this was merely an avatar or anything of the sort.
So, putting all of this bullshit aside, Pony Island's characters are actually 100% featless, aside from some showings of Soul Manipulation for the Devil (Namely him having trapped countless Souls within Pony Island throughout an unspecified, but incredibly long, amount of time), and as I said above, the pages should be deleted.
