So I realised Goku is classified as having precognition for predicting Hit's attacks while in timeskip, but, his Intelligence is rated as " He is a genius in combat" yet when i check the intelligence rating it says a feat like that would be classified under "Extraordinary Genius" "predicting the future through sheer mental calculations".

of course it's kind of hard to see Goku doing mental calculations in his brain, but, it's not as if Goku has had this as a special ability and the context does state it as a mental feat.
 
Obviously this would just be a slight change from "Combat genius" to Extraodanary Genius includind specifications to combat just for consistency.
 
Uh, no. Also don't bump after just one hour, generally is recommended about a few several hours before doing so.
 
You don't have to do "sheer mental calculations" to predict your opponent's movements, I'd be surprised if Goku could do basic multiplications honestly.
 
No. Precognition is having the ability to see into the future, all that means is that Hit's attacks were easy to predict.

Goku is an idiot outside of combat so also no to extraordinary genius.
 
I don't even know why Pre-Ultra Instinct Goku has precognition via predicting someone's movement, literally anyone can do that in real life, professional and even amateur athletes do that all the time in sports like Baseball.
 
Pretty sure that this was supposed to be removed since it's not really precog. This gives precog to anyone proficient in anything physical since prediction is integral to sports, fighting, etc.
 
Was under the impression it was even given due to the fact Goku did it while Hit was time-skipping.
 
It's an impressive skill feat, but it isn't really the same thing as seeing the future.
 
No, goku "resisted it" when using the Kaio-ken, before he even went blue he was able to predict Hit's attack. I was under the impression that was why Goku was given the precog skill, but never mind.
 
I do think it is why he was given precognition, but I feel like this is more taking a skill feat as one of him literally seeing the future.

This doesn't actually change his capabilities in any way, it's just a classification thing.
 
Did the thing.
