How to ruin an otherwise badass Pokemon: Make it smaller than a bird

>>26156964
Pretty sure bird-like Pokemon are measured by wingspan.

>>26156975
Nope, Noctowl is that big.

>>26156964
>implying Nidoking is a bird

>>26156975

Only bipeds and serpents are measured the same way they are in real life.

Dogs and horses and the like are supposed to be measured from foot to shoulder, but Pokemon doesn't do that.

Nidoking is a rabbit

Wait, birds' height is measured by wingspan in real life? How does that make sense?

If excadrill is really that small then it solidified it's position as my favorite gen 5 pokemon

Dunno, but that's how they do it.

>Measuring in cm

>>26157058
Wingspan is just another way of measuring birds, they're also measured from head to feet and from beak tip to tail in real life.

A lot of pokémon are hardcore manlets. Charizard is five foot seven.

Ash's Noctowl is a manlet, they even point that out in its first appearance.

>>26157535
No you stay retarded. In the Noctowl episode of the Master quest season they said that Ash's was a baby/young.

The Noctowl with a beard was pretty big

>>26157355
Winged creatures are measured by height in Pokemon. Check ORAS Pokedex.

>>26156981
Yeah. He is a big guy.

>>26157058
i know why. it's because birds can be sideways and exhibit their greatest 'height' in such an orientation. other species, such as humans, exhibit their greatest height whilst standing up (well, most of them), as well as snakes being their greatest height when stretch out and i'm just bullshitting i have no idea why.

>>26157058
because bird anatomy/posture varies by species, wingspan is actually consistant.

>>26159229
>>26157058
like, you wouldn't measure a sparrow toe to crown, but then a flamingo the same way, the wingspan stays relatively proportional to the torso, the neck and legs vary wildly. It'd give no accurate indication of how proportionally big they are or how much space they take up/need.

>>26157553
Ash always gets the smaller Pokemon.

He got the smallest charizard, krabby, pidgeot, swealow, noctowl, and so on.

Am I in denial pokebros?

Well, that is canon even in the games. Remember catching Magikarps of varying sizes for that fisherman?

Birds aren't measured in wingspan in Pokemon for some reason, though Snakes are measured in length.

Pokemon is weird bro.
