>>55551507Strong by comparison to vast majority of the Pokemon World (Normies) still counts as Strong. Just not Abnormal type of Strong. But I suppose I may as well lore dump a bit with how certain people would be classified within the plot Emily is in.
- Emily easily counts as an Abnormal. A derogatory term to describe a freak of nature that seems to break all the natural rules but also existing in the upper echelon of physical power in the world. A term very openly used to describe her and her sisters by the human supremacy cult the three of them openly fight against. The Collective deems them in need of being outright exterminated. Emily and her sisters take a stark pride in being given such a title by a group like the Collective and they consider it the Collective's own form of fearful but also hateful reverence for how firm of an obstacle they are to their goals.
- People like Alex and Axel and such are what the Collective would call Dominants. A similar class to Emily and her sisters even if there's a gap but also used to describe powerful individuals who in a sense "play by the rules" in their very existences. They're strong but don't outright shatter any norms or 'established rules of nature' and the fact that despite their strength, they can still be fenced in and pinned beneath their thumbs with the right approach.
- Bibi, Rouka and maybe others would be considered "Normals"-- which to be clear is different from the usual chaff despite the name. The actual chaff that makes up the large majority of the population get called Smallfolk by both the Collective AND Emily and her sisters. Or simply called Civilians. "Normals" are battle-capable individuals but rest somewhere between Civilian and Dominants. Like how a Normal Mage in a fantasy setting is more powerful than a Farmer but still can't hold a candle to an Archmage.
- And then finally you have Smallfolk/Civilians. Which is basically everybody else.
