try surviving razor leaves or a hydro pump irl
Better odds of surviving until hospitalisation than eating a Flamethrower or Fire Blast
Razor leaf is like having hundreds of knives thrown at you simultaneously. Hydro pump you basically die almost instantly. There’s a reason water jet can be used to cut metals.
The water jets they use to cut metal only work because the stream is so narrow. Hydro pump is more like getting hit with multiple full-blast fire hoses at once
Blastoise Pokedex entry reads as follows: “The rocket cannons on its shell fire jets of water capable of punching holes through thick steel.”
and the entry of Mega Blastoise: “The cannon on its back is as powerful as a tank gun. Its tough legs and back enable it to withstand the recoil from firing the cannon.”
I’m pretty sure thats enough force to kill someone instantly.
enough force to kill someone
It’s never enough to kill you. A water jet comparable in power to a tank shell hits you in the face, you’re maybe gonna faint at worst. A literal God brings down the fury of heavens upon you, and you’re just knocked out cold with a bruise that the local ER can heal free of charge.
What do you think a water jet strong enough to cut steel is going to do against flesh and bone?
This explains it in great detail
Found this article about this Turtles with cannons: an analysis of the dynamics of a Blastoise’s Hydro Pump
I don’t know if it’s right but interesting nonetheless
A firehose for comparison is usually minimum 200psi. Close up would hurt really badly but the chances of dying aren’t great. At 20ft away you’ll just get really wet. Their numbers aren’t wrong but the analysis of what the numbers mean is probably pessimistic for the Charizard.
True, water has never killed anyone
Water is actually the safest place to drown
I do always feel rather safer drowning in water vs a mile in the air or at a volcano. But I’m afraid of heights and allergic to lava so I may be biased.
Pick Charmander, it eventually becomes Charizard which is
big lizardy looking thing has large wings breathes fire
and also
is not Dragon type cannot learn Fly
Gen 1 was great but it often didn’t make a lot of sense.
He could learn Fly in the Yellow edition then you could transfer it to red/blue.
But yeah, Gen 1 had all kinds of issues.
Mean while rhydon is like fuck it ,let’s swim there
Played only once, was Blastoise, no regerts
I played several times.
My favourite move set was bulbasaur.
I’ll cook that stupid flower frog.
Anon doesn’t know about Gen 1 Leech Seed abuse.
Removed by mod
I think this is completely intentional design. Picking charmander was literally intended to be the OG challenge run
