It's been a while since I've posted one of these, but I found a few more that might be worth looking at:
Royal Knights Hax Resistance
I should have written this on that Blog I wrote back in July, but I might as well get these evaluated first. As the subtitle implies, the Royal Knights have shown incredible resistance to the bread and butter hax of tier 2s: Time Manipulation, Spatial Manipulation, and Reality Warping. When and where:
Let's start with the game they got their butts kicked in. In the little known Cathode/D-1/Brave Tamer series, the Royal Knights attempt to stop ZeedMilleniummon from tearing the timelines apart. Naturally, due to the insane gap in power, they were handily defeated. But was notable is that while they were defeated, they weren't annihilated, erased from existence, BFR'd, or otherwise haxed to death. They came back heavily injured but alive, despite the fact that Zeed's casual attacks invoke all of these things.
While this may have been a case of PIS, this is not a standalone incident:
In Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, Omnimon and Omegamon faced down the Mother Eater, who has similar powers (Information Manipulation, Time Manipulation, Space Manipulation, Reality Warping, et. cetera due to managing the Digital World's space-time) and defeated it with the help of the protagonists.
The majority of the Royal Knights attacked an artificial ZeedMilleniummon in the Digimon Xros Wars manga. Granted, they didn't do jack then either, but even then they were able to escape his reality destruction abilities and such. It helped that this Zeed was berserk and didn't particularly care about fighting the Knights directly, but my point still stands.
Finally, in Digimon Savers/Data Squad, Yggdrasil didn't erase the Royal Knights from existence when they turned against him, allowing them to stall for time by temporarily stopping the Digital World from crashing into the Human World (mind you, both are universe sized as I've proven before). Thus I'm led to believe that it wasn't that he didn't (since it would further his plans) but he couldn't, despite displaying the power over life and death (i.e. bringing back the main character's father even though his very soul was destroyed).
Thus I'm led to believe that the Royal Knights have insane levels of hax resistance to these abilities and their derivatives (i.e. Information Manipulation)
Next up, Yggdrasil itself.
Yggdrasil's Timeline Mincing
In the Digital Monsters: X-Evolution movie, Yggdrasil pulled a radical move and wiped out 99% of the Digimon population with a special virus that annihilated their Digicores due to overpopulation.
This is fine and dandy, but what he did afterward is more interesting.
It then proceeded to divide up the Digital World's timeline to prevent this from happening again. Dividing past, present and future into three separate planes, Yggdrasil managed to preserve the history of the Digital World while leaving plenty of elbow room for the survivors he chose. As a result, it and the Royal Knights are able to traverse between them freely in order to enforce order (and put down the X-Antibody rebels who were pretty pissed off at the fact that being they practically worshiped had tried to kill them and that they barely survived by pulling a last-second evolution that permanently changed their form).
My point? The Royal Knights were able to traverse between past, present, and future regularly to complete the missions delegated to them by Yggdrasil.
So on top of being a crazy Space-Time feat, this also may count as an Infinite Speed/Immeasurable Speed feat.
This is corroborated by the fact that while the Royal Knights were handily defeated by Zeed in the example I mentioned earlier, they were also able to actually hit him (to no avail due to his absorption abilities, but still notable).
Some input, thoughts, and criticisms would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I found a neat compilation of Yggdrasil's feats at this link. Unfortunately, it's entirely in Spanish, but it's so neatly and grammatically well written that it actually comes out nicely if plugged into Google Translate.
