That's how it's fucking done in the real world you twat.
>>
>>26835615
Serpents, fish, and long-bodied mons are head to tail.

Bipeds are head to toe.

Quadrupeds are toe to shoulder (extremities like Salamence's wings or Volcanion's arms aren't counted).

Birds are head to toe, not wingspan.

So Dunsparce is considered a serpent (tsuchinoko), while Salamence is a quadruped, despite being the same "height."

Just check ORAS Pokedex, it's not that hard.
>>
>>26835679
>long bodied mons

Why? True, I don't know what standards one is supposed to have for something that runs on all fours AND stands on two legs.

Why would birds be head to toe? Their posture varies, making this measurement unreliable.

Anything that doesn't stand upright is measured head to tail/bottom you uneducated mongoloid. Read a fucking book for once. Jesus Christ.
>>
>>26835458

Arbok and Groudon are both 11'06.

The obvious answer here is that 11'06 for Arbok is referring to its length from head to tail.

Same deal with Dunsparce and Salamence. Dunsparce is 4 feet and 11 inches long, Salamence is 4 and 11 inches tall.

I'm just stating things as the game gives them to us. And by the game's measurements, birds are from head to toe.

Wait? Nothing has ever made Wailord to scale, that is if I am to equate it to being a whale, and even for being an airship balloon, it should still be unbelievably massive. Not even the consoles got even remotely close.

>>26836443

I see but Wailord is not a Whale.

It's a Pokémon.

Still irrelevant. The proportions are still way off. Wailord should be much larger than it is.

What? You're going to go on and on about how the pokedex is correct and offer no rebuttal whatsoever? I just said why the pokedex is not lore, and you won't deny that? You were defeated the moment you started. You can't just say things, you must prove them. Prove to me that pokemon is more than collecting and battling. I dare you.

>>26836832
The XD models are still incorrect. Wailord should still be far bigger.
