Evading the Lions won’t work, when a Pokémon runs out of PP it developed gender dysphoria and fucking kills itself.
>>55782092
Perish Song doesn’t effect all Pokémon in a rotation battle, nor does it affect nearby Pokemon not engaged in the battle (it also doesn’t affect non-Pokemon as trainers are unaffected but we pretend Lions would be affected.) So at most Lapras kills 3 Lions and also itself and two other mons.

>>55782562

It hits all pokemons it is battling with, and it is currently battling 1 billion lions.
Swarm battles proves that there can be multiple pokemon against one. It's just a swarm of 1 billion lions.
>>
>>55782575
>and it is currently battling 1 billion lions.
Show me one format where you can battle 1 billion Pokemon you dumbass nigger
The maxinum is 5 Pokemon at once meaning it's 1 pokemon against 5 lions
There's not enough PP to kill them all
>>
>>55782579
>Show me one format where you can battle 1 billion Pokemon you dumbass nigger
Swarm. There is nowhere saying that the swarm can't be 1 billion.
There if proof saying that multiple pokemon can fight against a single pokemon.
There is no proof that the limit is 5.
Unless you can provide proof that there can't be more than 5, 1 pokemon with earthquake kills all the lions. It could 1 trilion lions or even 1 billion of billion of lions and it wouldn't make a difference.
>>
>>55782013
>So many of them do not accurately represent how the Pokémon functions in game
According to what?
>>
>>55782579
If you wanna adhere strictly to how the game works, then the pokemon wins. Since lions doesn't exist in the game, it wouldn't load in the cartridge, and the pokemons would win by W.O.
>>

>>
>>55782543
Well thanks for explaining nothing you lazy bitch, but if this is something that involves switching in and out Pokémon, they can’t do that because that involves human interference, which is not allowed.
>>
>>55782600
Earthquake can't even hurt the trainers 2cm away, it isn't doing shit to ANY of the lions.
>>
>>55782608
The lion simply eats the cartridge with all the pokemon on it.
>>
>>55782619
Pyroar is the Royal Pokemon, not the Lion Pokemon.
>>55782630
It doesn't, it just involves Slowbro having a certain move-set, ability, and held item. If the lions have a moveset including Bite specifically because you're a bitch about Ghost types, then Funbro is allowed to have a legal set of moves. Furthermore, if you really want to get into game mechanics, the in-game timer should mean that there are too many lions for them to be able to take their turn, and some Pokemon are absolutely faster than lions, meaning that the chip damage the few lions that could possibly move wouldn't outweigh the damage the fast Pokemon did to them first. The only way it would work in the lion's favor is if they could have a priority move, and even then there's enough Pokemon with priority moves to take up enough time that they'd win out.
>>
>>55782630
Kek, that isn't how stallbro works.
>>
>>55781965
I've always wondered how big of an arena would you need to have this battle. Like, would all of the land on Earth even be enough for a billion lions and 1000+ pokemon?
>>
>>55782637
Because the trainers aren't participating in the battle, that's the game logic.
But the lions are part of the battle, which means they will all be hit, regardless of apparent distance between them. The 1 billion lions could be spread throughout the galaxy and it wouldn't matter, since they would all be in this battle.
>>
>>55782646
Switch cartridges have a chemical to make it taste bad, the lions wouldn't be able to eat it.
Nintendo is a hundred steps ahead of you.
>>
>>55782670
All 6 pokemon I bring in a battle count as participating, they even get EXP for it. So why doesn't earthquake hit the other 5 in their pokeballs?
>>
>>55782658
>certain ability move and held item
Which is what exactly? Searching stallbro gives me zero results, I am operating solely on dude trust me energy right now. Held item is cheating if that Pokémon does not have it naturally in the wild btw, because that implies human interference.
>>
>>55782670
Earthquake doesn’t hit all Pokémon in a rotation battle.
>>
>>55782715
But it does hit everyone on a horde battle.
>>
Wild animals are scared shitless of fire, fire pokémon WILL solo any number of kitties, because lions won't stand up to fire spat at their faces, you droll retard.
>>
>>55782706
Why didn't you search "Funbro"? It was infamous and the smogon cucks bannes it because it would cause infinite battles.
It has a leppa berry and recycle as a move so it never runs out of PP, shell armor so it can't be critted.

my semen tastes bad, but ur mum still swallows it

Yeah I don’t think this gonna work out against 1 billion Lions, seems like Funbro is still killable. Does Funbro have the HP to survive many many many Lion attacks at once? It surely does not.

>>55782515
Ok I think I have an idea on how I can win. Note that I'm using the Showdown national dex teambuilder and going in a triple battle so it's fanficcy as fuck but if you accept those rules, it's possible...
Left slot: Mew with Life Dew, Imprison, Beat Up, Roar. Turn one you use Imprison and half of the lions moveset is locked off forever. Imprison is an interesting move in that it affects all enemies in a triple battle and never expires until the user faints. we might have to tank a couple of bites but Mew should be tanky enough to handle it. After that we just spam Life Dew forever. If we use leftovers Mew should be unkillable.
Middle Slot we have Alolan Muk with Recycle, Fling, Imprison, Bite. First turn we Imprison and now the lions can't use Bite either, so all they can do from now on is use Scratch. Fling leppa berry forces PP recovery, and it's only a 10 BP move so we shouldn't self-damage too much. Recycle + Fling heals 5 PP per turn if done optimally, and we'll be using 3 PP per turn so we should be able to sustain enough to last forever.
Right slot I'm going to use Mega Salamence but really anything fast with Tailwind and a killing move is fine. Tailwind, Hyper Voice, Air Slash, you don't even need a fourth move really. Turn one Tailwind lets Mew outspeed the lions to Imprison the Beat Up and Roar. Now all you need to do is use Hyper Voice for 500 million turns and you win the challenge! (slightly less for the distant lion which will struggle to death every so often)
>>
>>55781965
Maractus Solos 1 v 1000000000

Spiky Shield stops all incoming lion attacks every turn and deals 1/8 of each lion's max hp worth of damage to it.
Spikey Shield has 10/16 pp, meaning that she could theoretically kill every lion twice.

It would take 60,000 years even if each lion only took a half hour, not a thousand. A billion is so fucning many. Guzzlerord would die of old age before it could eat them all, even if it could survive the other hundreds of millions attacking it while it tried.

Doesn't matter. Earthquakes don't bother lions at all. Might make them stumble a little bit perhaps. But it'll take out exactly zero lions even if it hits every single one.
>>
>>55783586

on what planet would it even take more than a couple seconds? into the literal hell dimension void and then onto the nexy one. guzzlord would eat the fuck out of all the lions easily
>>
>>55783610
Even at 18ft tall Guzzlord isn't big enough to just swallow them hole. It has to fight each one, subdue or kill it, and then dismember or chew it to get it small enough to eat. It has to do all this while being attacked by a billion lions. A half an hour is generous.
>>
>>55783616
>Even at 18ft tall Guzzlord isn't big enough to just swallow them hole
you're really underestimating how big 18 ft is, and how small a lion is. Even a full grown male is like 4 ft tall. Guzzlord's mouth is at least 3 times that height.
>>

>>

4ft to the shoulder sure, taller to the head but that's not the point. The point is they're ten feet fucking long. And there's a BILLION of them.
>>
>>55783727
and guzzlord has claws big enough to pick them up and stuff them into an infinite void in a matter of seconds, they literally don't stand a chance
>>
>>55783767
No, it doesn't. As I already explained. And even if it could do it in 3 seconds each consistently with no pause, that's still close to 100 years. Which it would have to do without dying trying. It can't do it.
>>
>>55781965
Pokemon have superpowers, lions don't

The answer has always been Pokemon and anyone who says otherwise is baiting
>>
>>55783811
Out of the 1025 pokemon, how many do you think could take even ONE lion? I don't see Finneon doing much work, or Oddish, or many others. The fact is, the ones can can do something would have to take on literally millions each. Even if you split it up evenly that's nearly a million each, and you can't split it up evenly.
>>
>>55783727
Length doesn't matter - once it's in they're voided. One cm of lion inside the mouth = the whole lion exterminated.
>>
>>55781965
Rationally one million lions would be busy killing each other than fighting Pokémon.
>>
>>55781965
Pokemon, none of those lions are Bert Lahr whose the only one who can handle them.

A lion lives for like 30 years at best. Guzzlord is just taking a vacation of all you can eat lions for 30 years and then it's an automatic victory.
>>
>>55781965
the pokemon
how the fuck would the lions attack ghost or steel types?
>>
>>55784664
They can't.
Lionfags (who don't play pokemon) think Bite is just the physical act of biting, in which case humans would be able to learn bite, and Strength, and Body Slam, and Karate Chop, and most physical Normal/Fighting moves.
But Bite isn't just biting, it involves manifesting the energy of the Dark-Type, which lions have no ability to do.
Even if you go back to the 90s when real animals and Pokemon were intended to exist within the same universe in some way, that mere distinction alone is enough to imply that "normal animals" are not "Pokemon" and can thus not use Pokemon moves.

But then the argument becomes: how resilient are Pokemon's bodies against non-move-based physical damage. A lion's bite isn't Bite, but surely the act of physically chomping down on a creature with sharp teeth would be enough to do some amount of damage.
>>
>>55782205

These kinds of questions depend a lot on the exact specifics, how you think it works and how seriously you take it.

Like most people, I think the Pokémon win. Arceus and some other Pokémon could kill all the lions on their own if they wanted. But I'll take it a step further.

I think not only do the Pokémon win, but also that not a single Pokémon will die. I think every Pokémon could easily beat a lion in a 1V1. If we evenly divide the lions to each Pokémon, then some will fail, because not all Pokémon can handle 975609.756098 lions. But then that's 1025 separate fights, not one single fight. In a big team fight like this, the weaker Pokémon can stay back and help using Moves like Helping Hand.

Remember that Pokémon Battles are a standardized way for Pokémon to fight and don't result in death. A weak Level 1 Pokémon is hit by a strong Move from a Level 100 Legendary and simply faints, suffering no permanent injury. So Pokémon are extremely durable. Yes, in the anime we see humans surviving some attacks from Pokémon, but that's because of cartoon gag logic and the fact that humans in the Pokémon universe evolved differently from humans in real life.

nta but this is falacious, Pokemon can learn how ot better harness whatever "energy" is needed for a specific move by doing otherwise mundane actions, but that doesn't make the move itself any less fantastical. Ash's Sceptile learned how to use Bullet Seed by spitting actual seeds when it was a Treecko, but trying to say that the seeds Bullet Seed shoots at an opposing force are just normal seeds themselves would be retarded

But that is how it actually was in gen 1. Grass moves were grass moves because you would hit the opponent with plant parts. There is no "energy" to this. Stuff was what it was. It was only later, around the time of the phsy/spec split, when shit like Energy Ball, Flash Cannon, Dark Pulse, Aura Sphere was introduced and turned types into natural elements rather than just a classification.

True, the lions don't have the COURAGE to go up against every Pokemon.
>>
>>55797285
You could argue that millions upon millions of Lions who are so far away from the battle that they can’t even see it would just go about their daily lifes before they are can even see the battle they are in.
It’s like how not every soldier in a war is in active combat.

To anyone saying a billion is a big number. Here's the thing. It does not matter. It does not matter how many lions there are. This is one of EVERY Pokémon. There's Arceus, who could end the fight in an instant, and various other Legendary/Mythical and other powerful Pokémon who can kill all or many lions all on their own. With every Pokémon, we also have access to lots of different Moves too, allowing for a great deal of versatility and strategy. Notably with Status Moves. Lots of Pokémon can fly. Pokémon can just heal themselves.

All increasing the number of lions changes is how much more longer it takes for the Pokémon to win and, with some Pokémon like Arceus, not even that.

>>55790985
Anyone who genuinely thinks this can't be taken seriously. I'm sure most people who say this are obviously joking. But for obvious reasons, a lion ladder is not happening.

There's nowhere 99% of them can rest, there's 1 billion lions, there'll be lions all around them all the way up to the horizon.
I do think Lions lose, but it's only because there's a few broken pokemon. 99% of pokemon will die in the battle.

Are we talking wild Pokemon? Without trainers Pokemon are fucked, imagine how many PP they would waste doing stupid shit like Recover at full health or Poison against an already Status'd lion or a million other examples
>>
>>55799738
Lions get filtered by trees they can't bully leopards once they climb a tree. Any pokémon that can climb, dig or fly will be able to rest.

Shit like HP and PP are just video game abstractions that both represent the same thing; stamina. Using moves and taking damage tires them out, but if another Pokemon heals them, their "HP" and "PP" are both restored

lionesses can climb trees
>>
>>55799749
Lion Ladder is a meme but I genuinely think with a billion lions they could swarm the tree and pile high enough to climb into it considering how fucking many there are.
Flying takes energy for most pokemon, Rayquaza is unique in that it just exists up in the stratosphere and never has to land.
Digging underground is the only method that could work, assuming the tunnel doesn't collapse around them under the weight of all the lions and pokemon and suffocate them while they sleep, hell even if the entrance is all that's sealed they'd run out of oxygen pretty quick and die that way.
>>
>>55799716
Giratina can transport injured pokémon to the distortion world to rest.
>>
>>55799733
You don't even need Rayquaza, using this strategy, even the likes of Tynamo and Chingling can solo every lion by levitating to a point where the lions cannot reach them and raining down psychics and charge beams. If you say levitate can't do the same thing, the lions still get mollywopped by Minior and Drifloon.

Pokémon don't really need to breathe though, you can fight deoxys in space for an indefinite amount of time and you don't suffer any penalty, not to mention:

Game mechanics, if we go that method lions win easily as all pokemon struggle themselves to death.

> Giratina Kamuing injured mons to the distortion world to rest

Depends how much energy that takes and whether they can stop lions from just following the injured pokemon through the portal before it closes.
I'll give you Hoopa though, works for as long as Hoopa has the stamina.

Recycle/Bestow run out of PP, Harvest is a hidden ability so it'd be rare, plus only 4 pokemon lines even have it and none of them are especially strong.

Lions only live for about 12 years, and increasing the number of lions doesn't change that. There are Pokémon like Kyogre who can just sleep at the bottom of the ocean for a century and wake up when all the lions have crumbled to dust.

Yes. I agree with you. That's why I followed up the part of my post that you quoted with:

>>55800089
Pokémon can do that too. In fact they can do it much faster and more easily than the lions can.
>>
>>55800089
One billion lions is not a sustainable ecosystem, the lions will be forced to resort to cannibalism and then die of prion diseases.

This isn't an issue for the Pokémon though, because there are many species with nature-healing powers who can restore the world after the lions are dead.

Terapagos literally grants that power retard and Eternatus can grant dynamax/gigantamax.

>Every Pokémon must fight the exact same number of lions!
No. Then that's 1025 separate fights. Not one big fight.

>>55783821
Every single Pokémon can easily kill a lion in a 1v1. Pokémon are smarter and far more powerful than real-life animals.

>>55783966
This. They'd also likely be terrified of all the crazy superpowers Pokémon can use and try to run away. Whereas Wild Pokémon are more willing to work together. With the exceptions of Heatmor with Durant and Zangoose with Seviper.

>>55789048
>kill
Pokémon Battles are a standardized way for Pokémon to fight. They don't result in death, just Fainting, which simply means they can't battle but can still do other stuff. So, in an actual fight to the death like this, they can fight in a way they normally wouldn't. This is most shown with Legendary/Mythical Pokémon, who often hold back their true power.

>>55799738
The weaker Pokémon can just ignore the fight entirely or, more likely, they can help using Moves like Helping Hand. They will be protected and kept safe by the stronger Pokémon. The same for any Pokémon that needs to take a break to heal up.
>>
>>55800622
If they surround pecharunt they become easier to enthrall.
This will end with all the lions enslaved and killing themselves.

As long as you can fly, dig or climb you can rest as much as you want.

I'm guessing they're all Level 100. But them gaining EXP from the lions is an interesting idea.

>>55803734
Like I said, Pokémon are smarter and far more powerful than real-life animals. A weak Level 1 Pokémon is hit by a strong Move from a strong Level 100 Pokémon and simply Faints, suffering no permanent injury. Pokémon are very durable. Killing a Pokémon or even causing a serious injury to one is very difficult. As I and many others have said, Pokémon can just heal themselves by taking a short break. A Pokémon's Moves are very powerful since they're based on the Pokémon's own strength and Status Moves function the same regardless of the Pokémon's own strength. Moves such as Tackle, Yawn, Bite and so on, which are named after basic actions, are not the exact same thing as those actions. A Move used by a Pokémon is very powerful. We see humans survive Pokémon Moves, but that's only because humans in the Pokémon universe evolved differently to us, cartoon gag logic and Pokémon holding back against humans. Every Pokémon can use the Move Struggle when unable to use any other Moves.

Now for some specific examples (Limited to Level up Moves only because they are Wild Pokémon.):

>Wishiwashi (Solo form)
Assuming it can't transform. It can use Aqua Ring for passive healing. Tearful Look and Growl to weaken the lion. Various attacking Moves including Endeavor.

>Sunkern
Also learns Endeavor. Has attacking Moves. Can heal itself. Sunny Day to change the weather and Solar Beam. Worry Seed to make a lion die from sleep deprivation.

>Any Baby Pokémon
Just look up their Level Up Moves.

>Early Route Bug Types
Can cause Paralysis and Poisoning. Have attacking Moves. String Shot to reduce speed.

>Cosmog
Can fly and lead the lion into a dangerous place. Or use Struggle.

>Unown
Can Levitate and spam Hidden Power.

>Magikarp
Splash to move around. Tackle and Flail for damage.

BTW, I don't consider Pokédex Entries canon.

I've read Pokédex Entries but they obviously can't be taken seriously. But if you consider Pokédex Entries canon than this fight is even easier for the Pokémon. The Pokémon world can't function if Pokédex Entries are canon because things quickly stop making sense.

This is not true. Pokemon kill each other all the time with all the predator/prey relationships that exist in the world. There's no reason to believe a lion couldn't just tear a Pidgey apart if it wanted.
>>
>>55782013

In all forms of logic the pokemon win

Game mechanic logic you just need a self-refreshing moveset to kill all of them.

Game lore logic you got god pokemon

Anime logic you have ghost mons

There is no world where the lions win.

They don't make sense and calling them the only source is ridiculous when you could use basically anything else in the series.

>>55806197
I've been arguing for the Pokémon side in this entire thread, including that post of mine you replied to.

>>55808551
I agree that Pokémon can kill each other, but not in the way you say. Like I said before, Pokémon Battles are a safe and standardized way for Pokémon to fight which don't result in death, only Fainting. In the wild, the Pokémon fight, hunt and eat each other like real-life animals, except, of course, more extreme. In a Pokémon Battle, a Level 1 Pokémon simply Faints from a Level 100 Pokémon. This is canon to account for the idea that in-universe, for example, someone might send out their weak Pokémon against a strong Gym Leader or something and obviously lose, but such a Battle wouldn't result in the weak Pokémon's death. Being based on something is different from actually being that thing. Pidgey is a Pidgey. So before I get a reply with something like:
>A lion can't crush a Caterpie to death like a real caterpillar because... It just can't OK?!

Yes, I unironically think that. I also think that Caterpie would cause a serious injury to the lion. Because a lion is a real-life animal. Not a Pokémon. An animal can't get too much stronger than it already is compared to a Pokémon, for which the difference between when it hatches to its maximum power is drastic. Also, Pokémon use some sort of energy for their Moves. That's what makes Tackle different from a literal tackle, that and the fact that Pokémon are extremely powerful. Pokémon evolved in a world where creatures can breathe fire, shoot lasers and other superpowers. A Pokémon can kill a Pokémon if it's in a fight to the death, but a real-life animal would find it extremely difficult to do so.

>>55808753
True. I guess what I said about humans in the anime in that post should also apply to the humans in the games too.
>>
>>55811672
Can you explain why besides "they're made of magic elemental energy (headcanon). Humans also eat Pokemon, am I supposed to believe PokeHumans are magic too? And real animals exist in the Pokemon world, so why wouldn't they be magic as well?
