That guy's reasoning for 2-A is extrapolated. He essentially says that since the reflection cave connects alternate worlds, it can do it ad infinitum. Which is is just his personal head canon without any backing that it's happening all at once. That's high-end 2-B at best.

So yeah... most likely not happening.
 
I've never understood this.

Since there's always going to be an infinite amount of these, wouldn't it just be 2-A?

The argument for it is that they're branching, but, by the fact they already exist and have already branched out, it's already infinite, so why is this 2-B?

They might just form a "ring" (or some other closed system) of Universes, with a finite amount.
 
Well, can you prove that?

Because otherwise it's speculation, and since we've been given no reason to speculate that they're the same Universes connected to each other, we'd have to assume they're all different.

No, I cannot prove that.
 
Well, there we go, since one cannot prove that it is a closed system, it would be a much bigger assumption that each mirror is a closed system.

Occam's razor, simply.

We've also been given no reason to assume that they're all different. If you wanna bring up occam's razor, it's a much smaller assumption to say that they link to each other instead of an infinite amount.
 
Arceus has to be able to manipulate, create, and/or destroy an infinite number of universes, but there's no clear sources or info indicating that

Actually, no, it's a much bigger assumption to say that they're all the same Universes in a closed system instread of them being branching Universes.

The only thing we've seen is that there's a Universe per mirror reflection, therefore, the first assumption is there's an infinite set of these.

Therefore, Occam's razer dictates that the path of least assumptions, and we're just assuming from what has been shown.

To go with what you're saying, is that there's 1. a Closed system of Universes 2. That all the Universes are just connected to each other.

So, Occam's razer.

If the only thing we've seen is that there's a Universe per mirror reflection, isn't the first assumption that there is a Universe per mirror reflection?
 
Just to add in a bone from watching some other threads, didnt someone mention something about the universes in Pokemon being infinite in size? Not amount but as in the size of each universe.

Yes, the Universes are infinite in size.
 
If we put three mirrors from that cage together we could get infinite reflections and that way infinite worlds.

(thinks)
 
By all means, I wished Arceus was 2-A, too, just so we can have Llama God vs Goddoka OR her Satan friend.

BUT, Arceus's feats are high in the 2-B range at best.
 
If Arceus wound up a 2-A, I could make an argument of him being the strongest non infinite 2-A if I bullshitted enough (like if I said each game had infinite universes), and Arceus does have better hax, but well...Sonic kinda has that AP advantage if I don't bs and it's effective and it makes it a stomp.

(Dialga on the other hand instantly timestops and wins ovo)

That said, Arceus and the trio should be Type 2 abstracts for sure.

Doesn't Arceus have a bit of Dialga's time manipulation powers, at least? I mean, Arceus DID create Dialga along with the other two dragons.

If those reflections are:

1. Universes

2. Different

Then yes, it would be infinite worlds.

Godoka and Homucifer are too abstract for Arceus. Arceus beats Homu's mindhax easy (three layers of broken 4-D mindhax resistance), but abstraction makes that a problem.
 
Congrats, Sonic (and I mean that)


I still hate that Arceus creates concepts and beats the living crap out of them, but assuming he can destroy them is too much...
 
I heard the idea that Arceus can destroy them by removing them from concept they embody and busting them, which is still impressive, but still...
 
I mean Homura's is pretty much

Goddess Madoka

to

Goddess Madoka

Arceus's sounds a bit different.

Which im also pretty sure would be the case with Reflection Cave.

Each mirror in a cave leads to a different universe and the reflection cave's in those universe's lead to other different universes, which the caves i those universes lead to other different ones and so on.
