>He missed the whole story point that Calyrex used to be significantly more powerful than it is now

That said not showing us “Blossomed Calyrex” or whatever is a superjew move that won’t pay off until remakes in like 2035

Levels have only been used in a metaphorical sense that's more in line with your typical shonen "power can't be measured by numbers alone," and ACTUAL levels have only been seen in simulations that get denounced for failing to capture the genuine battling experience.

They're breaking the fourth wall, just like how when NPCs tell you to press the B Button to run, they aren't literally telling your character that.

Stats don't exist. Living creatures don't have numbers.

No they weren't retard. It wasn't king of galar, Calyrex was known as "The King of Bountiful Harvests". He didn't actually rule anyone, the people who lived in the crown tundra just gave it offerings and in return it ensured they would have good crops for the year. But I wouldn't expect a retard who didn't actually play the games and birches about them anyway to know that.

Calyrex can dynamax, unlike the dogs, and they removed the dynamax clause from ubers to discuss it again.
The important difference between Calyrex and Zacian outside of dyna is the fact than Calyrex has no real counters, at least Quagsire could stop Zacian (thanks to god it doesnt learn Leaf Blade).
But they are just starting the discussion, people could adapt and find something to counter it, or not.

Yes, all of those things are cannon. Yes, Pokeearth is tiny. Yes, battles are turn-based. Yes, Pikachu oneshots Rhydon with Grass Knot. No, you can't prove me wrong because that's what's shown in the games, the games are the original, therefore the games are essentially the Holy Bible of the franchise.
