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
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
True, water has never killed anyone
Played only once, was Blastoise, no regerts
Anon doesn’t know about Gen 1 Leech Seed abuse.
The OG Pokemon was so unbalanced and had such a huge bias in favor of Grass types that I legitimately don’t understand why anybody would pick the other two unless they were doing a challenge run.
And fire types SUCK SO BAD. They can’t kill anything. They don’t even do that much damage to the grass types who just Leech Seed them all to death.
I think this is completely intentional design. Picking charmander was literally intended to be the OG challenge run
