There’s really nothing in any Pokemon canon that suggests the creation dragons could beat even a run of the mill shonen protag like Kid Goku or Alabasta Luffy. Masuda’s notes about the DP story in the teraleak also specifies that their “power level” is only a myth, exaggerated by people who were frightened of them, which Cynthia herself tells the player in the final version of Platinum’s postgame. Even the strongest pokemon would be a low tier kaiju in something like Ultraman.
