[ShockingPsychic]

As far as I know, Nintendo only has two Tier 1s, and they're both from Earthbound. Dark Dragon > Truth of the Universe, so DD for #1, TotU for #2.

well technically there is also Itsuki and Mamori.

Also, I thought TotU was above DD? it says it in the profile

 

[Lou_change]

I believe that the dark dragon can destroy the truth.

 

[TheGatememer]

Well, I'll just put them in that order for now until someone changes it.

 

[ShockingPsychic]

Ah, just saw that. I don't recall anytime it's stated to have survived the universal reset, I remember quite the opposite, but I'm not here to debate that.

 

[ShockingPsychic]

Given the Dragon was stated to erase even the "creator", I assumed Truth wouldn't be spared either.

 

[TheGatememer]

I dunno, I'm not knowledgeable on Earthbound. I'll just go by the profiles ¯\(ツ)/¯

 

[ShockingPsychic]

Magikarp for Tier 10? Fairly haxxed, even for being one of the weakest Pokémon.

I actually can't think of many Nintendo tier tens besides characters from Pikmin.

 

[Lou_change]

The Player (Fluidity)?

The Player (Fluidity)?

I don't think Fluidity is a nintendo verse

They are linked on Nintendo's verse page

Dragalia is technically still nintendo right?

 

[theultimate5105]

Well putting Arceus at Tier 2
Hoopa for Tier 3
Mirage Mewtwo for Tier 5
Eternamax Eternatus for Tier 6
Gengar for Tier 7
Gastly for Tier 8
obviously some will change but these will be here for now

Dragaux for tier 8

 

[Valiant_Abyss]

Base Rodin for the 2nd spot in Tier 6

The scaling chain is pretty damn big:
183.24 Petatons <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Gracious and Glorious << Glamor (Highest of the first sphere angels which G&G inhabit) < Sequi angels (much weaker "clones" of The Cardinal Virtues) <<<<<<<< Cardinal Virtues (Strongest and highest ranking angels in the hierarchy barring Jubileus and Angel Rodin) = High tier demons (Frequently clash on even grounds with one another) < Base Rodin (Considered the most feared demon in Inferno and casually stopped a punch from Madama Butterfly with a single hand.)

Bayonetta isn't on the verse page, but it's an exclusively Nintendo published series starting with the release of Bayo 2.

I'd also like to nominate Aesir for the the lowest spot in tier 2. He's tied for the strongest character in the series, but has hax that beats out the other contenders for the strongest in the verse. He scales to 10 spacetimes.

 

[Lou_change]

Characters can only be in a tier if they are that tier physically. (Ex: a character like Olimar can't have his 4-C weapon in 10-C, but he can have it in 4-C)

I don't think you worded this right Olimar is physically 10-C even with that weapon.

 

[TheGatememer]

I don't think you worded this right Olimar is physically 10-C even with that weapon.

I changed it

 

[Lou_change]

Please add weird buff dragon dark aura is op.

 

[TheGatememer]

Please add weird buff dragon dark aura is op.

In what position?

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

Don't know what Ashunera would do in character, but at least Ashera belongs in Tier 6

 

[Lou_change]

First for tier 8 mind haxes ghastly

Added her tied for 1st for now.

 

[theultimate5105]

First for tier 8 mind haxes ghastly

Gastly resists mind hax

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

Tier 8 is Ephraim because he doesn't pick fights he can't win ovo

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

Unironically for Tier 7, Henry does have thought based death hax, hard to argue if he'd just use it in character though

 

[Lou_change]

Gastly resists mind hax

Countrywide mindhax with resistance negotiation?

 

[theultimate5105]

Countrywide mindhax with resistance negotiation?

Oh I guess not on that level then
Didn't know it had resistance neg

 

[TyranoDoom30]

Kirby for Tier 4, 3 and 2

 

[Arceus0x]

idk why mirage mewtwo is above normal mewtwo here. Put normal mewtwo above, have you seen his ability page?

Like MM has some of mewtwo's abilities (though many of them it shouldn't even have) but mewtwo is quite literally that but better. Like MM has some immortalities and all but mewtwo can just teleport it into the void and win. That's that.
