so at 500 in a second, 125 per arm, that's about twice as fast as the quickest hummingbird wing beats

honestly as bad as that is, i expected it to be more ridiculous than that

it's not just about frequency. do the math to see how fast the arms are going. probably faster than what's possible with nervous signal transduction

So you're telling me that Machamp's body moved without him thinking of it...?

man, I'm still wondering who's fucking idea it was to make all the gen 7 Pokemon so fucking slow
shit, it's so bad that I'm wondering if it was some kind of last minute change where they just multiplied the speeds by 0.6 or something across the board

Speed pokemon is a measure of how fast you can attack, not how fast you move

Are the japanese dex entries as stupid as the international versions though?

Yes

The games never give us any reason to believe that they're false or exaggerated though.

It's like >>35240271, the Pokedex doesn't exaggerate how powerful Pokemon are, the limitations of the game mechanics underrepresent how powerful they are.

Maybe that's only internal temperature. The snail actually more solid than it looks with an insulating skin.

Supposedly all the pancake/sweets stuff with Alola Raichu is a reference to a Japanese children's book that is akin to the Western book If You Give A Mouse A Cookie.

Well that's what close combat basically is. A lot of fucking punches.
