Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Ridiculous pokemon.

Actually, it's 0.0277777778 cubic feet. You can't convert cubic inches to square feet. You can't even measure blood is square units. Supposing you could though, 48 square inches is 0.333333333 square feet, not 4 square feet.

Also, 48 cubic inches is only 0.786579072 liters or 26.5974025 US fluid ounces.
That is interesting! I figured that a cubic inch would equal 1/12 of a a cubic foot. I just messed up when I said the square feet thing though (I really meant cubic feet).

1 ft. = 12 in.
1 sq. ft. (ft.^2) = (1 ft.) * (1 ft.) = (12 in.) * (12 in.) = 144 sq. in. (in.^2)
1 cu. ft. (ft.^3) = (1 sq. ft.) * (1 ft.) = (144 sq. in) * (12 in.) = 1,728 cu. in. (in.^3)
 
Gloom:
The honey it drools from its mouth smells so atrocious, it can curl noses more than a mile away.

Larvitar:
A Pokemon that eats soil. Once it has eaten a large mountain, it goes to sleep so it can grow.

Skuntank:
It sprays a vile-smelling fluid from the tip of its tail to attack. Its range is over 160 feet.

Luxray isn't that ridiculous, really.
 
Lol ^ is sophisticated.

Here's some from me :

alakazam : Its superb memory lets it recall everything it has experienced from birth. Its IQ exceeds 5,000.

ambipom : To eat, it deftly shuck nuts with its 2 tails. It rarely uses its arms now.

Dunsparce : It digs into the ground with its tail and makes a mazelike nest. It can fly just a little.

Exeggutor : It is called "The Walking Jungle". If a head grows too big, it falls off and becomes an EXEGGCUTE.

and one of my fav Larvitar : A pokemon that eats soil. Once it has eaten a large mountain, it goes to sleep so it can grow!

ok, alakazam is rediculous... dunsparce!? ambipom!? exeggutor... umm digging and failing to fly? shucking nuts??? umm... a walking tree?
 
I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Dragonite. A quick check on Wikipedia states that circumnavigating the globe is a distance of 36787.559 kilometres, and the dragon can supposedly do this in 16 hours. Assuming it's travelling that far (it'd actually be going farther, due to the larger diameter of flying vs walking), that's 36787.559/16 kilometres/hour, or 2299 km/h. A quick bit of math, or 2299 km/h * (1 hr / 60 min) * (1 min / 60 s) * (1000 m / 1 km), results in at least 638 metres per second for 16 straight hours. With those stubby little wings.

Alakazam's IQ is also nothing special. IQ is graded on a curve, so the difference between 100 and 200 is a lot more than the difference between 200 and 5000, which is almost negligible.
 
I think these figures are to captivate the overactive childrens' minds not professional scientists o_O

Primeape runs to the end of the world. Nice.

I wonder how long this thread will last before Chuck Norris is mentioned. Drat just mentioned him.

I don't know why the Pokemon people kept making Machamp so powerful in their writings...

The Official Pokemon Handbook said:
"Machamp uses its huge muscles to throw powerful punches that can send a challenger to the Moon!"

I think a child's imagination would be captivated far better by plausible figures, because with plausible figures you can actually imagine these feats being performed in reality.

The speed of sound is 344 m/s. Dragonite flies almost twice this. Just by doing what Dragonites do for fun, it's using Extremespeed to get Supersonic (defined as 1.2-5 times the speed of sound), which would cause quite a powerful Sonic Boom as it passes. Its bone structure would also have to be harder than the steel and titanium used in modern aircraft, because the forces exerted upon it when it turns would be phenominal. There's no way it could travel this speed and hope to keep a passenger on its back, as well. Your arms would be torn off if you kept that good a grip on it.

For you American kids out there who don't know the metric system (and shame on you), one mile is 1609 metres. Dragonite can fly over a mile (1.18 miles for those who care) in three seconds, and can keep this speed up for 16 straight hours. That's 23.59 miles in one minute, or 1415.4 miles per hour. A drag racer can reach, at best, 530 km/h (or 330 mph), taking 4.45 seconds to cover 402 metres (a quarter mile). A Concorde jet flies at 2.02 times the speed of sound, or 694.88 metres a second, which is only 1.089 times faster than Dragonite. However, neither the drag racer nor the Concorde can maintain this velocity for very long—the Concorde can get from New York from London, but that's about as far as it goes. It isn't going to circumnavigate the globe any time soon like Dragonite can (what does this dragon eat to give it more fuel than a supersonic jet?).

Aaaaaaand that's all the math I care to do for the moment.
 
machamp is ridiculous, If it's like what they say, it would be undefeated !

Yeah, and yet it was KOd by ash's squirtle's bubble attack... and no he wouldn't be unbeatable, HE can't fly but yanmega can. Yanmega can cause critical internal injuries but churning its wings...

Not to mention tyranitar whos "armor" makes him invulnerable, but again, HE can't fly, yanmega can...

And charizard can fly and melt 10 tons of ice with its breath... i think that could melt a machamp =/
 
We have a pokemon who can control space, a pokemon who can control time, and a pokemon who created the universe, and yet its Machamp and Yanmega who are ridiculous :lol:?
