Is the LS going to be a problem?
Almost certainly.
Dingodile:
Lifting Strength: Superhuman (Able to lift and throw concrete crates)
Kadabra:
Unknown physically,
Class K via telekinesis
Superhuman is at bare minimum, above 227-545.2 kg, but Unknown otherwise, since it's intended as a placeholder value.
Class K BEGINS at 100,000 kg & ends at 1 million kg, meaning at a bare minimum, Kadabra's Telekinesis overpowers Dingodile's physical Lifting Strength by over 183 times.
& many Psychic-type Pokemon moves, including 2 of the most basic, Confusion & Psychic (A weak & a strong telekinetic attack, respectively.), are telekinetic. Heck, Confusion is the first Psychic-type attacking move it learns by level-up. (& both are among Kadabra's level-up moves.)
Only thing I'm seeing on Kadabra that could be a real issue is Future sight, so toasting that bug-like arse is on the table
Well, there is the mind-reading & danger sensing & auto-teleport & illusion stuff that Abra does that Kadabra ostensibly should also be able to do but it's dubious if it's IC since Kadabra doesn't have all the Intelligence feats Alakazam has & Abra does practically all that when sleeping anyway.
More relevant things for Kadabra:
Red
Blue | It emits special alpha waves from its body that induce headaches just by being close by. |
|---|
| Crystal | When it closes its eyes, twice as many alpha particles come out of the surface of its body. |
|---|
| Sapphire | KADABRA holds a silver spoon in its hand. The spoon is used to amplify the alpha waves in its brain. Without the spoon, the POKéMON is said to be limited to half the usual amount of its telekinetic powers. |
|---|
| Platinum | It stares at its silver spoon to focus its mind. It emits more alpha waves while doing so. |
|---|
| SoulSilver | If it uses its abilities, it emits special alpha waves that cause machines to malfunction. |
|---|
| X | When it uses its psychic power, it emits strong alpha waves that can ruin precision devices. |
|---|
| Moon | Kadabra’s presence infests televisions and monitors with creepy shadows that bring bad luck. |
|---|
| Ultra Moon | It possesses strong mental capabilities, but its psychic powers are halved when it’s not holding a silver spoon. |
|---|
Let's Go Pikachu
Let's Go Eevee | Many odd things happen if this Pokémon is close by. For example, it makes clocks run backward. |
|---|
| Shield | This Pokémon’s telekinesis is immensely powerful. To prepare for evolution, Kadabra stores up psychic energy in the star on its forehead. |
|---|
Considering the Shield entry, it might lead with telekinesis & toss Dingodile around.
Of course, there's also the question of how Dingodile fights while under a headache. For example, would he get more aggressive/reckless in the interest of wanting the fight over sooner so that he could go home & rest? As opposed to, say, fighting sadistically or such. I don't know his characterization that well.
There's also the question of Dingodile's equipment.
Standard Equipment: A flamethrower that also occasionally shoots water and torpedoes, a vacuum cannon
Would any of these count as "precision devices"? Beyond affecting "machines"/"precision devices", & making creepy shadows appear on screens that are said to induce bad luck ("Bad luck" itself being unclear in consequences.), & making clocks run backwards, it's unclear what Kadabra's presence exactly does to machines, but it does affect them.
& being faced with a headache & your machines not functioning right is not a good position to be in.
Not to mention, said mechanical malfunctions & Kadabra's level of psychic powers seem to be correlated with its level of alpha waves, something which it can increase via staring at its spoon, or just shutting its eyes.
The fact that it has healing on a cellular level (Recover) & a form of Power Nullification (Disable) plus Teleportation (The move Teleport at the least.), Reflect to halve physical damage.... There's the question of if Telekinesis (the move) lets the victim move while being forced to float until the effects of Telekinesis (The move) ends; Dingodile being made to float in place would be problematic for him if he effectively can't aim, approach, nor retreat.
Excluding the Egg Moves (Probably less likely IC, & all of its attacking Egg Moves are physical anyway, & none of which are Psychic-type, so I doubt Kadabra would favor them.), its offensive options are:
Psybeam: A "peculiar", often multicoloured ray that may induce the Confusion status in the victim.
Psycho Cut: Launches blades formed of psychic power at the foe. Technically a Physical attack under Pokemon's move classification system, but it is Psychic-type. Has a high Critical Hit rate.
& Night Shade:
Night Shade: Kadabra projects a mirage of itself that attacks the opponent, dealing a fixed amount of damage depending on how powerful Kadabra is.
Other than that, it's only other attacking moves are Confusion (the move) & Psychic (the move), both of which are telekinetic, & which probably don't need it to aim. Luckily for Dingodile, they probably won't instacrush since they're usually used for throwing foes, maybe squashing & stretching? Memory ain't clear on their depictions.
Still, Kadabra's versatility, ways to hinder Dingodile, & its ease of stat amping does not make this a favorable matchup for Dingodile, IMHO.
Hopefully this helps!
