Okay so this fucker can fly are mach 2, which is 1534.54 and his base speed stat is 101.
Assuming it is a linear measurement of movement this means slowpoke can move at 228 miles per hour with a base speed of 15
>>25673515
>this means slowpoke can move at 228 miles per hour with a base speed of 15
of course, it'll just take him approximately three hours to realize he has to move in the first place
>>25673515
Maybe it's with IVs and EVs and favorable nature
How would that account for it?
it had that dex description back when it's speed stat was 91 too.
>>25673515
So than on this logic it means slowbrow could move 456 mph.
That explains why he sometimes plays baseball
>>25673515
Top speed != base speed when fighting
Usain Bolt might be a fast runner but it doesn't mean that he throws the fastest punches.
REACTION SPEED DOES NOT EQUAL TOP SPEED
THAT'S WHY POKEMON BIRDS OF PREY ARE SO SLOW, WHEN BIRDS OF PREY IN REAL LIFE ARE LIKE THE FASTEST ANIMALS, AND TALONFLAME HAS GALE WINGS TO REPRESENT THE PEREGRINE FALCON BEING THE FASTEST ANIMAL IN THE WORLD EVEN THOUGH ITS SPEED STAT ISN'T VERY GOOD BY ITSELF
>>25673777
126 isn't a very good speed stat by itself?
What are you smoking?
>>25673795
It may have been good up to Gen 4-5, but now it's kind of mediocre.
>>25673821
>in the top 20 fastest Pokemon out of 721
>mediocre speed
You're retarded.
>>25673515
> Assuming it is a linear measurement of movement
Well there's your problem.
movement speed =/= de facto speed.
Speed isn't how fast a pokemon can run, its how fast a Pokemon can launch an attack.
The max speed of a Peregrine falcon is 241 mph. That doesn't mean it moves at 241 mph all the time, only at it's faster like diving through the air.
>>25673515
If you follow the pokedex=ingame stats=canon formula you're going to give yourself a headache, especially when you realize that that would mean fucking miltank moves at supersonic speeds
>>25673515
The speed stat likely represents initiative, or who can react in a battle most quickly. It's less of a footrace and more of a comparison of reflexes.
>all these hardasses responding to OP logically and not having fun with it
Is this the face of autism?
>>25673515
So the fastest possible pokemon (Base spd 255) is hitting Mach 5
>>25674101
But have you aligned your QPUs?
>>25673515
>>25673515
Slowpoke's top speed is 228 mph, yeah, but it's average speed it closer to 3 miles every six hours
