How powerful are Pokemon really? If frogadier can move 2,000feet in a minute and it only has 98 base speed, then how fast can something with 130 base go?

Base speed doesn't necessarily correlate with movement speed.

That being said, most legendaries are above mach 100, thanks to all the roaming legends.

It can move UP at 2000 feet per second. Not necessarily laterally.

I mean, I was assuming jolteon could move at the literal speed of light.

So I always thought 130= light speed

Why?
nothing implies lightspeed about Jolteon.

Diglett moves at the speed of light with a base speed of 95 so 130 is actually faster

Machamp can throw 1,000 punches in just 2 seconds and I remember reading somewhere that it could pick up a mountain with just one arm, so that's pretty devastating

Compared to other Pokemon, that's actually pretty slow.
Most fully evolved Pokemon can level a town in one shot. Machamp pushing a mountain (Not lifting, pushing) falls fairly well in line with this

Mountains are harder to destroy than cities actually since all the compact matter in a moutain is more dense than the spread out matter in a city.

That said, I'll just leave this as a good read for all of you interested in how fast and strong Pokemon are

Fairly tough.
More impressive is that the humans can also take these hits.
Even a strong Magikarp's tackle hits a hundred times as hard as the strongest recorded punch. If a normal human got hit by that, he'd die.

Not as fast as Protect, Detect, Endure, Magic Coat, Spiky Shield, Snatch, Fake Out, Quick Guard, Wide Guard, Crafty Shield, or Helping Hand.

Base speed is more similar to reaction time, agility, turning speed etc. than it is to how fast you can run in a straight line.
Hence why Dragonite can fly at Mach 2 but isn't that fast or agile in battle (base 80 speed)

>>26462094
i think of the stats as more of a reaction time/swiftness or (for attack) ability to perform standard physical skills under pressure in conjunction with speed type of thing,

like, blastoise can shoot water out of its cannons and you can remove all the water skills from blastoise and its attack or spa don't go down, therefore atk and spa aren't tied to a pokemons abilities but rather their ability to function in a battle.

Dragonite can travel around the globe in 8 hours. Ninjask has TWICE the base speed of Dragonite, meaning it travels around the globe in 4 hours. The idea of a 80 cm tall bug crashing into my house at that speed is fucking terrifying.

Have you guys ever considered that maybe the Pokedex entries are likely just your character (a 10-year-old child) making shit up?

It would explain why the entries already exist--if they had been previously programmed into the Dex, then there'd be no need for the Dex to be filled, no?
