Starting from this thread two years ago using calcs from here, ProtoDude has found quite a few stuff for Battletoads upgrades.
Andy and I were also discussing it on my wall. We have done the two important calcs here and here. Both calcs were accepted and this puts the Battletoads cast at 5-A and Relativistic. First off, the Ratship does have 5-A ramming strength and durability since it was completely unscathed by the ram. The Rat Pods are able to Damage the guns and survive hits from the guns. And they do take massive damage from the Ratships ramming strength, but shouldn't be too much weaker. The Toads can also Wreck apart the same Rat Pods. I know backwards scaling small pods from Titanic Ships are inconsistent, but they still should be in the Tier 5 department.
But there's an even better feat. In the next level, the Rat Ship fires a Missile heavily implied to have more firepower than the Rat Ships ramming strength to destroy the Earth. The Battletoads upon defeating Robo-Manus; the Missile is then destroyed before reaching Earth and Robo-Manus is heavily implied to still be on the Missile when it explodes. He also survives as he's still in the next game. This puts his durability at Large Planet level which the Toads scale from since they can harm him.
The Battletoads are also missing a few abilities such as Weapon Mastery, Vehicular Mastery, Size Manipulation and Breaking the Fourth Wall.
I also listed back up speeds feats in my blog for why they scale from the Rat Ship's speed. Robo-Manus' lasers are even faster than it and the Toads can dodge those lasers at point blank range. So all in all, 5-A and Relativistic Battletoads is the conclusion.
Note: This only applies to the Battletoads cast, not the Double Dragon cast. Battletoads & Double Dragon qualifies as a One-Sided Crossover being the 4th game in the Battletoads series where as the Double Dragon cast are more so cameos. It was also made by Rare, the same company that made Battletoads when Tecmo had no involvement.
