The darn 4th chaos emerald Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 So this episode has bothered me for a long time because it seemed so poorly put together. I have so many complaints and counter arguments against it. Prepare for my salt. 1. They made Blanka an electric type. First of all, no, it doesn't work like that. Humans aren't normal type. Also, by this logic, Shadow should have been dark type rendering Mewtwo's abilities inneffective. 2. They nerfed Pikachu by not letting him have Ash and claim that he's incompetent without him, even though Snake had Otacon, Sam had Grimm, Meta and Carolina had those whatevers, Ramona got her clones, Tommy got saba (although that one didn't matter too much), Agumon got Tai, and...oh yeah, Charizard had Red. I don't care that this episode was before those, if they come up with rules and take this stuff as seriously as they say, there's no excuse. Ash and Pikachu are as close as any of those combinations. 3. Blanka has experience killing small animals. Yeah. In the wilderness with brains the size of peanuts, not highly intelligent animals who fight gigantic beasts for a living. Also, pokemon tank lasers, fire, and other pokemon with claws and attacks like Blanka, so that begs the question, can Blanka actually mortally harm Pikachu? (Fainting =/= Death, that has been confirmed.) 4. Pikachu is much faster (they said it) but yet Blanka is fast enough to keep up. ??? Quick attack makes the user almost invisible according to the move description. I don't think Blanka can react that fast. 5. Pikachu has fought legendaries and is a bit inconsistent, yes, but Blanka was trained by Dan which definitely hurts his abilities and Pikachu has way more combat experience. 6. Iron tail is coated with steel and can split boulders. I think that's strong enough to crack open his head and/or cause bad brain and skull damage. 7. Because Blanka eats and survives eels he is immune to actual lightning. .....T-T..... C. Viper disproves that. Honestly, the message I get from this is that: This is character(Pikachu) from this universe(Pokemon) so it cant possibly beat character(blanka) from this universe(Street Fighter, who aren't very deadly save for a few like Akuma). It's a completely idiotic fallacy. Feel free to agree or leave your counter arguments to mine below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
