Cyrus used the red chain in order to control said pokemon actually. The 3 psychics cancelled him out of it and destroyed the chain as you can see from this video. However, it was unable to be stopped by itself from this still fully:You guys DO know that when Dialga and Palkia are caught using a pokeball they lose a SIGNIFICANT amount of power. (This is why Cyrus used the Red Chain)
Ness and Lucas are being underestimated to the point where it is just insane, technically they should just be able to will away these fighters according to their canon.But yeah, TL doesn't stand a chance. Hell NOBODY stands a chance to Pokemon trainer. I DO think he/she should be limited.
Oh yes, because he doesn't just get 99% close to making a new galaxy in the 4th gen games.I believe we have the decision whether or not to allow that particular Pokemon their 'Dex abilities', which is why Dialga can somewhat control time.
So, how come you think Samus' beams will pierce every pokemon that PT has when the beams don't always pierce everything else in the games?And Samus beats PT because she kills him before he does anything significant. One shot travels through the initial Pokemon (damaging them/freezing them) and hits PT, thereby killing him.
Yes, which is why it totally works on human foes who are trying to beat the **** out of you in the game huh? (such as the Gerudo guards you keep talking about).I just realized something about Young Link. The Couples' Mask calms people down and stops them from arguing and fighting.
Yeah, and those guards/foes that can see you also happen to mention that they see your mask as some sort of magic and that is why it doesn’t work on them. I mean just try going into the room with the zora eggs at that Gerudo pirate fort before releasing the bees on the guards and see what I mean when the “Nabooru” for the game sees you.He also has the Stone Mask, which prevents almost everyone from noticing him (except for Gerudos in designated fighting spots in the Pirate Fortress, and a few specific situations).
And Luigi has been shown to be faster than any “bunny rabbit.” After all he out runs them all the time w/o any issue at all in SM64DS, he also outruns bullet bills and such.I'm not sure how fast Luigi is, but Yink can double his speed with the Bunny Hood.
It is in the 4th generation of games, it is used to stop Palkia and those others, and they only "restrict power" when they are in the balls. How do you think they capture pokemon in the 1st place? They are "pacified" when put in them. The game shows that there is no issue with that when they are out of them though, I mean they could still be wild if the trainer is bad (as in is using pokemon that aren't truly is and isn't experienced enough with them, after all the "badges" clearly show stuff like that).Didn't someone find where it actually says Pokéballs restrict power?
Well I wasn't being serious when I brought them up as well. I mean they are a side part for a remake of a game that has nothing to do with the actual story.Those rabbits in M64DS aren't very fast by Mario world standards
Meh, it depends on the player/other things overall I guess.Especially considering 3D speed seems slower than 2D speed for the bros.
How so? They are overall the fastest moving things in most of the Mario games by normal standards besides some other things which mostly "fly" in the 1st place as well.Also, I think the Bullet Bills aren't comparable to RL bullet/rocket shells when it comes to speed
Well, if they were only restricted power once inside of the Pokeball, then how does returning nullify their "unrestricted power"?It is in the 4th generation of games, it is used to stop Palkia and those others, and they only "restrict power" when they are in the balls.

Kinda thought it was seriousWell I wasn't being serious when I brought them up as well. I mean they are a side part for a remake of a game that has nothing to do with the actual story.
I was just joking about them because of what the "bunny hood" is.
I've personally seen speed runs as a great example of Mario's agilityMeh, it depends on the player/other things overall I guess.

Personally all I know is that I wouldn't **** with Mario when he has a cape at least.
However, of course MW seems faster than SM64. For some reason a warp was around Bowser's castle at his front door, but whatever.

Its not Bowser's fault that Mario and Luigi are super human to the point where a few armies aren't enough to stop them.
I don't think I've ever read of anything about restricting their powers, even if it were logical. The pokes could just restrict themselves, kinda like a wild untamed cat can do lots of damage to a human, while a housecat is sweet and hardly damages it's owner, however the ability is still there.Didn't someone find where it actually says Pokéballs restrict power?
Do I really have to explain the problem with the idea of you guys assuming that pokeballs make pokemon weaker instead of just “pacifying” them when they are in them?Well, if they were only restricted power once inside of the Pokeball, then how does returning nullify their "unrestricted power"?
Um the show and game both disagree with you, if the pokemon doesn’t listen to the trainer chances are it is because of the trainer being unskilled to the point where they can’t just can’t handle them.In relation to being wild, I saw that as obedience
That badges show a trainer's experience so the Pokemon respect em' more (as odd as that sounds)
[008] : Our POKEMON's an outsider, so it's hard to handle. An outsider is
a POKEMON that you get in a trade. It grows fast, but it may ignore
an unskilled trainer in battle! If only we had some BADGEs...
[011] : POKEMON BADGES are owned only by skilled trainers.
You are aware that in order for him to perform some of the stunts he does such as “flight” with the cape he would need to be moving very fast based off what his “build” is like.He usually travels at a set foot speed which isn't that grand, but he'd probably be zipping about with that long jump, dive and cape
Why do you think they aren’t equal to a RL bullet? Mario and Luigi are characters who clearly defy the normal human limits already with things like there wall jump/jumps/super strength in general.Their speed isn't very noteworthy other than Mario usually being able to/not outrun them
But in the Mario Universe, these guys are usually the fastest thing trying to kill you
I just don't think Bullet Bills really measure Mario as super fast than a speeding RL bullet
Just pretty fast
Well for starters Luigi seems faster because a normal horse is faster than everything Yink can use except for the Goron Mask’s roll. You know, because w/o his items Yink is just a normal human unlike Luigi in the 1st place (minus the “god’s protection” that he has I guess). Oh and one really has to question just how great Ganondorf is when a normal human can kick his *** with a magic sword, but whatever.I don't see how you can truly compare the speeds of two different universes to the point where one is all of a sudden some speed demon with his normal in game running.
Well its more than just bullets, like I said before Luigi also gains enough speed to run up walls, achieve “flight,” oh and both of the brothers have been seen outrunning battleships that are starting to take off in general if given a chance (SMB3 where they get on the battleships in general).When do you see Luigi running faster than bullets?
Yes, because “time” isn’t ever brought up in the Mario universe in general (even though I still don’t think a stop watch does that), and it’s not like Yink is going to get a chance to even play that ocarina, just thought I’d remind you on how he does slow down time in case you forgot.Again, don't forget Link can at the very least slow time. This would allow him to be even faster in comparison.
So did you like ignore the part where I said “normal foes/several bosses” use said skill that you are talking about with regards to the stone mask and Luigi can track them just fine? Or how Luigi can do it as well.And what are you considering magic use? Using an item is magic? He may be a star child and above average, but I'm not sure Luigi could see a stone mask wearer without some kind of Lens of Truth in hand.
YLink has
-18 days invulnerability
Yes, because it's not like he has to recast it every minute or so and the only time he can recast it is when the old one is dead. Also it only protects him from "the heart damage" he can still get his *** knocked down.
Yep and when he is a giant he can't use anything but the Glided Sword, not even other magic.-can turn into a giant
Yes, because Luigi can't throw a fire or ice ball.-elematal arrows
I'm sure they beat a guys fists/feet/hammer/ect. when that guy has been shown to break through walls and such with them.-powerful swords
The only one of those that is even defined by the word "powerful" is the FDM, who is like 8 feet tall and is a devil god.-the power to turn into another powerful creature (Deku, Goron, Zora, Fierce Deity)
I'm pretty sure that Epona breaks the rules of no outside help or something, and the Bunny Hood isn't anywhere near as fast as her.-double speed running (Bunny Hood, Epona)
Luigi has that stuff as well Volt shroom will make Link regret touching him.-can stun the opponent for a moment (Deku Nuts lol)
You guys are the only ones who see it as broken, I like how everyone keeps forgetting how the stuff for everyone shows proof that it isn't perfect in so called invulnerability.-broken starman power
Of course Starmen also have an unlimited recharge rate, so stopping him is pretty much impossible based off what you guys are saying.
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Galactic_HQCyrus' Computer said:According to myths, the Pokémon created Sinnoh with its power. However, capturing the Pokémon with a Poké Ball prevents it from using its full power... But with the Red Chain, the Pokémon can be shackled, and its power can be used without restraint...
It would still make complete senseDo I really have to explain the problem with the idea of you guys assuming that pokeballs make pokemon weaker instead of just “pacifying” them when they are in them?
If the pokeballs really made pokemon weaker than the idea of using them for protection from wild pokemon like several people in that world do in the 1st place wouldn’t make sense.
Also going on do you see how they are healed in the 1st place at pokemon centers? They are in the pokeballs! The pokeballs clearly are relaxing for the pokemon to be in them somehow.
Perhaps I misworded myselfUm the show and game both disagree with you, if the pokemon doesn’t listen to the trainer chances are it is because of the trainer being unskilled to the point where they can’t just can’t handle them.

You are aware that in order for him to perform some of the stunts he does such as “flight” with the cape he would need to be moving very fast based off what his “build” is like.
The fact that the Bullet Bills are moving slow in relation to everything around them makes me think they aren't that fastWhy do you think they aren’t equal to a RL bullet? Mario and Luigi are characters who clearly defy the normal human limits already with things like there wall jump/jumps/super strength in general.
Because it is pretty much stated that Sonic is moving at blurring speeds as a characterAnd it’s not like the Mario games are the only ones who “slow down” game play for what they are doing for the “players sake,” I mean Sonic does it as well with things like bullets from various foes.
You mean this?I mean characters like Wario show off super speed a lot as well (the guy can move fast enough to run across water).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDfXNCQd3PoWell its more than just bullets, like I said before Luigi also gains enough speed to run up walls, achieve “flight,” oh and both of the brothers have been seen outrunning battleships that are starting to take off in general if given a chance (SMB3 where they get on the battleships in general).
Actually saying Yink has to run away just to tie makes Luigi win actually. Plus I don’t see how Yink could run away from him in the 1st place, I’m pretty sure Luigi is packing more than “30 or so MPH” in his movement. Because I have been listing a certain number of events that show off how Luigi is a by far better athlete than Yink is as well already.Well is it possible to play an ocarina while moving? Because it so, Yink can put on the bunny hood and begin running to begin playing the ocarina to slow down time.
I certainly don’t think I have been jerk just by saying over and over again that I don’t agree with you guys on a lot of things and then actually backing my reasons for why. After all, I have yet to do things such as “name calling” unlike some other users in these forms.you don't have to be a complete jerk when addressing others.
TP Link gets a ton of tools that are “living” as well (gale boomerang) but you don’t see me saying he can’t use them. Hell the master sword itself has a will of its own even as some canon info as shown. Yink’s masks for MM also contain “spirits” in them as well, which is also shown in the canon, but you don’t see me saying he shouldn’t be able to use them unless I feel like pointing out how flawed certain people’s views are IMO on the outside help rule (as I have done before).As for Epona, I think she's allowed. She's essentially a vehicle, so I don't see why she wouldn't be allowed. I mean, don't Luigi and Mario get to use tons of tools that are living? Like Starman, Mushrooms, etc. Unless you want to give all those up of course.
Well if by less range you would mean they are more ground based, than sure they have less range, but I’m pretty sure that doesn’t matter much for Yink.As for Luigi's fire/ice balls, I'm pretty sure they have less range than Yink's arrows.
Oh boy:The reason Cyrus uses the Red Chain is because Dialga/Palkia/Giratina's power cannot be harnessed if caught in a Poke Ball. It just can't, which is why the Red Chain part of the story.
So, tell me what happens when a trainer and so on end up seeing a wild pokemon that could **** them up such as a Machamp and such? Or explain how there is nothing different about them when taken out of the pokeball from when you caught them for the 1st time.It would still make complete sense
I'm of the idea that it limits the certain abilities Pokemon posses, like Machamp moving mountains or Garchomp flying at intense speeds
The idea that the balls “pacify” them in some way in order to try and prevent a break out when you 1st meet a wild one is only backed up more when they keep having more positive experiences in the balls.As far as PokeCenters, I don't really see how relevent healing is
Well when you said that the reason they listen is because the things are just so called “respecting” the trainer more I certainly would agree with that, after all that is why I posted proof that the trainer having badges is a “physical symbol” of his growth from when he started his journey.Perhaps I misworded myself
Technically based off how Mario uses the cape, he more or less just does the jump himself while holding out the magic cape and then just “glides” with it somehow based off how it is built, I mean Mario is known for his jumping you know.Cuz I'm far more inclined to believe that a cape can't realistically lift a moderately overweight plumber off the ground, no matter how fast he runs
Right sense others have been using their in game times to make a point, I think I will as well, So in that video he clears large open battlefields filed with Bowser’s troops in about 40 seconds for the 1st level, several huge mountain ranges in 42 seconds, a large mine filled lake in 25 seconds, and completely destroyed a single castle’s defenses in a little over a minute, all on a place called “Yoshi’s Island,” you know that place that is a very large lake/river/mountain filled area and takes a pack of yoshi’s a very large amount of time to explore in their “own game.” However, Mario can destroy Bowser’s 1st defenses and so on just before his “true game starts” in the rest of Dinosaur Land.Judging from how quickly he's running past your average bush, he's really not all that fast
Probably within human speed
Oh and the “firing” part is also a thing they have in comparison to the real life stuff, don’t forget that. They are worthless by themselves.The fact that the Bullet Bills are moving slow in relation to everything around them makes me think they aren't that fast
The only real comparison they have with real life bullets is by name and the *BOOM* sound they make upon firing
Already brought up the magic thing So:Considering how Mario can stay afloat by wagging a racoon tail, I see no problem with Bullet Bills traveling at the speed they do in the canon games.
Mario and Luigi’s abilities aren’t talked about at all that much when it comes to their abilities, I mean I’d still like to know why a “fire flower” works the way it does other than just “because” really.I don't see where it says that Mario/Luigi can run at crazy speeds
Which is where I see "super-human speed" as an assumption
That is just how Wario Land Shake it did Wario’s super speed, by using a machine, and you really have to love how those machines always appear whenever you need one and how the foes are never able to use one.Cuz he's only able to do that via a machine that spits him out at a speed fast enough to do that
Unless I'm mistaken with the game or instance
Ok, my bad (shows you when I last played SMB3 I guess) still the time he takes to destroy a huge battle ship is also impressive.He's kinda runnin' towards the airship that's headed for his direction, so he didn't really outspeed it
They also run up walls in SM64 and SMG w/o those triangle things (which btw Yoshi can’t run up, you know one of the things that isn’t anywhere near as fast as Mario/Luigi but are pretty much a “horse and such” for the Mario Universe a lot?)They also only run up walls via those gooey triangle things
For all we know, they have sticky stuff to allow that
-_-_clinton said:Oh boy:
Red Chain the ITEM in your BAG is not canon. At all. In any way possible. Balance the two? What? I read that description, it just states Cyrus can control them.-The red chain is made from the three lake psychics who according to the canon had the power to balance those two’s powers in the 1st place (of course in this case for Platinum it shows that it could only do it to one of them at a time), so of course it will control them like them, it is made from their “tears” or something like that (it is never explained how he extracted the gems from them, he just did ^_^).
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wi...ag_description
Feel free and check out something that was taken out of the game (item use of the red chain).
Yeah, I don't know where you're going with this. Red Chain -> control Dialga/Palkia -> etc-Capturing a pokemon in a pokeball does nothing to actually truly control them as you can see from what happens if you have a pokemon who doesn’t want to obey you from the canon (you are not experienced enough or something like that), so of course the power would be “restricted” if you captured them in a pokeball, they don’t have to listen to you if they don’t want to outside of it.
So considering how the idea was to make a new world. Yeah.
Yeah, didn't think of that. Giratina is exempt from the Red Chain/other random junk involving the lake trio.-Giratina’s not on that list actually for pokemon that are controlled by the chain, if Platinum is the “true” canon version of that game then the thing actually just dragged the other two dragons into its world to prevent them from ****ing up his world.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7RFf...eature=related
Cyntheia says at around 8:43 that the pokemon of the lake chances are can’t control Giratina.
Because they have no huge affect on Time/Space. Apparently, the Poke Balls take away the majority of their power or something.-And for saying that the PT can’t use their power still, I’d like to know why they still have these moves (that only they can use) before and after the battle and such:
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Spacial_Rend
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wi...ime_(move)
Its just that a health bar is a clear indication that a character has a limit, and running is clearly linked to health in several ways!Meh, I guess Luigi might win this one. Though by unlimited endurance, I meant he has the ability to run indefinitely, not because of a health bar, but because if you really want to you can run through hyrule field through an infinite number of sun cycle without ever stopping, shocasing the fact that link never gets tired of running.
SM64DS, Luigi doesn't wall jump in it. So I'm talking about SMG, which in that game he can wall jump.And to counter your last quote. Was Lugig ever in SM64?
The gravity varies in SMG I’ll admit, but when it varies you can easily tell how it does. There are several places in the game where you see them run up walls and the gravity would have been clearly on the ground where it started.(Although if Mario can do it Lugi probably can too...but I vaguely recall someone egtting mad the Lucas didnt have certain powers because they were not explicitly shown through in game battles [Though that may have been you, was it?]). And Galaxy has serveral planets with varying gravity, so wall running in that may be differet (and again, does luigi actually do it in Galaxy?)
Am I the only one who can see the issue with the pokeballs so called “restricting” their powers? I mean they never give any reason for why they can’t use them fully.It certainly says they cannot use their full powers, but at the same time it means they retain some of their powers, tho cannot use it to full extent.
Well the only legit Arceus that you could get is is at level 100 IIRC, but that is another issue with level that I have, the pokemon vary for when you can fight them at it even for the same “games” pretty much. Anyone else enjoy knowing that certain Pidgey that you can find at level 50 or so happen to be able to put up a fight vs. certain Palkia and Dialga that you could find at level 47?Besides no wild pokemon has ever reached lv.100, even legendaries haven't gone as high as 70 (sans arceus and he's 80's).
So, do you know why things like Mount Olympus and so on were important to the Greek Gods?Arceus can't just create stuff whenever. It needs the Shinto Ruins to actually do something.
Well those things only say they affect a “small area” according to the description in them.Dialga used Roar of Time! MASSIVE DAMAGE, YET THE OVERWORLD IS COMPLETELY UNCHANGED
Palkia used Spacial Rend! MASSIVE DAMAGE, YET THE OVERWORLD IS COMPLETELY UNCHANGED
Well this is what it says actually:Red Chain the ITEM in your BAG is not canon. At all. In any way possible. Balance the two? What? I read that description, it just states Cyrus can control them.
What is not canon about that info? (as in I’m aware that you the player never use it, but the info it gives anyway is spot on) Palkia and Dialga are summoned when it is put together in a certain spot, the chain is linked to the pokemon that created said region.A mythical chain that is said to link the legendary Pokémon that created the Sinnoh region.
It is said that the Red Chain summons Dialga and Palkia when it is put together.
Yeah, and it controls them because it is made from the three lake psychics, who could already control them.Yeah, I don't know where you're going with this. Red Chain -> control Dialga/Palkia -> etc
Yet, when you are fighting them, they use that power just fine even before being shoved into a pokeball.Because they have no huge affect on Time/Space. Apparently, the Poke Balls take away the majority of their power or something.
Man, that video brings up a funny point that isn’t related to this thread at all. I really have to wonder how ****ed up it would be for a normal person to see a 10 year old trainer walking around with god! (or some of those other pokemon that are bigger than a house).And yet, Gardevoir and things are specifically said to protect THEIR TRAINERS with massive shows of power, like black holes. >_>
Powerbomb, this vid also disagrees with you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3dEmhd3DEU
Yeah it was Samo, I just didn't catch it like I did with another mistake when replying. (because when I'm replying I break up the posts and paste the names of those to who I'm replying to, it is easy to make a mistake in that)What about the Stone mask hiding + Surprise attack method? Was that already debunked?
oh and I didn't say the level 100 Arceses thing, it may have been Samo...just saying.
Yes, Link can.Luigi can turn invisible? Huh, you learn something new everyday.
I forget, can Yink use Lens of truth (to reveal invisi -Luigi [assuming we give it that function]) whil eusing stone mask, because in that case, Yink would have the advantage.
So with the lens of truth, even if Luigi was invisible at the same time Yink could see him and get to him.The Lens of Truth is a recurring item in the Legend of Zelda series. It is a Sheikah-crafted, magical looking glass that can see through any illusion, such as hidden doors, holes and other things. Its function is similar to that of the Cross in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link; however, unlike the Cross, the Lens of Truth will drain the user of magic power.
Yes, I've said it like 5 times so far. It's from SM64DSLuigi can turn invisible? Huh, you learn something new everyday.
Fair enough I guess.My apologies, You do post a lot at once, it's easy to miss some stuff.
Actually what the term for what Nintendo calls the Boos ability varies (“transparent” is what PM and SMG use for it, which I don’t really have to say anything about that I guess for various reasons), mostly because the “ability” they have in the 1st place allows you to move through walls and some other things like metal bars which IMO makes it a hell of a lot better than just only turning invisible but whatever, I don’t really think it matters much except for the fact that it will allow Luigi a chance to maybe be able to sneak up on Yink better when it comes down to it, but sense I’m in the view that both characters will make the abilities main selling point worthless in some way, I don’t care about that.Anyway. The boos turn translucent, I don't recall anytime them begin considered "invisible"
Oh, how is it a game mechanic? Are you going to pull something like the Metroid side as done with Samus’ speed booster now and just say BS when the game clearly doesn’t agree with what a small amount of writing says 100%?especially in the same regard as a mask that makes Yink invisible to the point where have no idea he's there (unless there gereudo, which is more of a game mechanic).
So if one example is all I need I most certainly have that:Alright While in the straight up fight, Luigi would win, could you give an example of when Luigi could see the boos when they are invisible, because even if they do become invisible (which I'm still not convinced is complete invisibility) it happens when Luigi looks at them, where does it show that Luigi can see (or interact with them) while they are in "invisible" mode.
You see, the thing you just listed right there is an example of a justified game mechanic, do I really have to keep bringing up the fact that game mechanics aren’t all bad? Health is a game mechanic as well you know (yes I’m using this example again, because it is a perfect one), are you going to try and tell me that Link can never “die” even though you agreed (or at least haven’t responded to my reply about it) with me a while back that Link doesn’t have unlimited stamina when it comes to things like “running” away because he clearly has a health bar in his game?And by game mechanic, I meant they limit the potential of the invisibility
So, do I really have to keep saying why the concept of “level” in pokemon is a useless one when there are examples like that?I know this is kinda irrelevant, but isn't Magikarp the highest level wild Pokemon? In Platinium you can catch a Lv 100 Magikarp with Super Rod.
I say some of the match ups like:I say Luigi should win this.
You know, technically Luigi is faster than Yink by far, better off up close and far away because he doesn’t have to use a bow string for long rang combat, and also can get close w/o having to worry about being hit because of what his vanish powers do in the 1st place (yeah, sense boos can only be hurt when they are trying to attack, I’m going to say the same for Luigi, even said ghost cap sort of backs it up because Luigi is pretty much 100% immune to damage when using it).And I vote for a draw (unless Clinton can present material that proves Luigi can see Boos when they are invisible, or can see Invisi-link within the fight)
Yep. I think it was level 99 though.I know this is kinda irrelevant, but isn't Magikarp the highest level wild Pokemon? In Platinium you can catch a Lv 100 Magikarp with Super Rod.
Wouldn't it be lost Sheikah magic?Meh, fine give Luigi the win.
Though, the Lens of truth isn't a common weapon. It givs the user the power to see through illusions, but this power belonged to the shekiah, who made the lens, and they were lost. I would not go as far as to say making something akin to the lens of truth would be as easy as you make it seem. The lens isn't a matter o having the ability to cast magic or not. It's the fact that it's lost Shekiah tehcnology.
