Would competitive Pokemon be taken seriously if the luck elements (crits, accuracy, etc.) were removed?

0.3m long means it's 15-20cm tall.

I think that the 30 cm is it's height, not length. Compare it with Scraggy in the anime. Durant isn't so small.

I don't remember it's data from Pokédex 3D, I was thinking in anime.
But I don't trust so much in 3D models because of Pokémon Stadium, that shit was weird as fuck. Haunter was fucking gigantic.

Man, seriously, anime. They got wrong probably 80% of the sizes.
Just look at Charizard or Noctowl. They're able to get wrong even legendaries.

They needed a scary Pokémon and took the size from the sprite, not from the Pokédex (that is the canon).

But OP's pic is full of errors too. Some pokémon sizes are calculated with wingspan. Or do you think that Dustox and Beautifly are that huge?

They look accurate to me and NOT measured with wingspan. Dustox is 1.2 m. In OP's pic its wingspan is 1.7m (or 1.8m) and the height is accurate. Doesn't look measured with wingspan to me.

Not saying that it's perfect, but overall it's pretty accurate and reliable.

Please note that the trainer is about 1.55-1.60m in that pic. Dustox is way shorter, so it's ok (since Dustox is 1.2m).

Beautifly and Dustox look correct to me.
Beautifly is 1m tall, and in OP's pic it's a little bit more than half of the trainer, that is 1.60m.

Dude, look at Chikorita. Compare with Cyndaquil and Totodile. I don't think that size is correct, staters should have approximately the same size.

Man, can you please check the Pokédex before bulshitting around?
Chikorita is 0.9m, Totodile is 0.6m. Chikorita is 50% bigger then Totodile (leaf included).
Again, OP pic is accurate.

You should know that pokédex is full of errors.
According to pokédex, Doduo is faster than Dodrio.

Descriptions are random bullshit. Size and weight are canon, since they're involved in the fights too.
However, since it works like that, descriptions are canon too, unfortunately.

No, the game is canon. The anime has even more bullshit then Pokédex descriptions.

However, about size and weight, you just have to accept the Pokédex. That's the canon.

It is an average, as proven in many Pokémon games (fish size competition). However, as with real animals, they usually are never so far from average.

Also anime has its own averages too. Ash's Charizard in the anime is smaller then the average, while is way bigger compared to game's average.

GF is dumb as fuck with weights. There's no way that Onix, a giant snake made of fucking stone weighs only 210 kg. It should weigh tons.
And Nidoking weighs about the same as 2 Beedrills. This is stupid as fuck, pokédex is full of bullshit.

Didn't someone do a piece on how Wailord could only weight that much if it was hollow or some stupid shit like that?

Real blue whales are only twice as long yet weigh close to 400 times more than Wailord, pretty fucking daft.

due to it's total density of the body being lighter than air or something

Looking at Lugia in Pokemon 2000 compared to Ash, I'd say that was one of the few Pokemon they got the size pretty well.
