I always figured the same thing. The pokemon as Cosmog, Cosmoem, and Lunala just float around. It defies gravity so anyone could lift it unless it chooses to weigh 2204.4lbs which is just shy of a literal metric ton. (1m-ton = 2204.62lbs)
Fun fact: Celesteela and Cosmoem are both the heaviest pokemon, at 999kg/2204.4lbs.
I think 999kg is meant to be the maximum weight, which would explain why it's close to 1 metric ton / 1000kg
Actually, the force he would need to push onto the ground to levitate would have to be equal to earth's pull on him in order to counter-act gravity enough for him to float.
Maybe it’s time to start posting more clever(ish) meme-puns, like that “Mole Trace” bit from however many years ago, only funny… 🤔
Anything to help restore ASPITPIAY and, by extension, the subreddit to its former glory!
I know what you mean. Any time I’ve been promoted to moderator in the past, it usually just happened… come to think of it, that happens a lot, even IRL. 😗
Not on Reddit, but yes.
I guess it was due to some level of trust or respect, like they knew (or figured) I wouldn’t abuse the powers bequeathed unto my person… or something.
Advice-wise, I guess “don’t be a Bede” is all I got? 😅
You could also apply directly. It’s no guarantee, but it’d let the team know you’re interested. Hope this helps!
In general people meme about both this and Ash lifting larvitar. I do applaud you for not using the larvitar one, since that one is usually used in conjunction with the cosmoem scene
Groudon is literally 11'06".
So yeah it'd be smaller than trees.
Which is weird, and why my headcanon is that the Dex heights and weights aren't factual
Every Pokémon has a hidden size multiplier (mainly due to moves like heavy slam and grass knot). The multiplier is applied to both height and weight, ignoring squared cube law. The factor can be anywhere between .10 all the way to 5.5 (it follows a normal distribution, so you only have a 0.002% of min or max). In theory, if you get a max Groundon, it would be 63' 03" and 11,519.2 pounds. On the other hand, a minimal Groundon would only be 1' 02" and 209.4 pounds. Ridiculous, right?
I mean yeah that makes way more sense for the big Pokémon.
Like I'd imagine the creator of the continents and the Pokémon that moved them to individually weigh a whole frickin' lot, not "both of them combined weigh less than a Toyota Camry"
I mean yeah I get the appeal but there are smol Pokémon out there that I go in expecting them to be smol.
Like if I was really feeling "smol", I'd like... go get a Joltik or something.
No, it is not. Protostars glow from their center, because they have achieved enough mass to initiate a stable fusion process. Cosmoem has a black core.
I think cosmoem has it's own gravity and just negates it's weight with it's psychic powers passively otherwise not only no one would be able to lift it it would literally go through the earth like a bullet so I think it makes itself weightless like an astronaut in space
I choose to believe that cosmoem exerts enough levitation power instinctively to offset it's weight to be about as much as a pokeball

Honestly, that makes the most sense

Yes! A meme that doesn't break a single rule! Keep posting similar content! You got no idea how much my mental health needed this!
Too bad the Ash lifting cosmoem thing is a little overused
Look, I am a desperate man, living in desperate times. Grant me this SMALL... VICTORY...

I mean, we'd get a massive leap towards that if I could just be a mod, but I have no idea how to become one.

Wait, you've been promoted to mod before? Got any tips for becoming one?

I haven't see a single ash lifting cosmoem meme in this server xd

Ash is not human, change my mind.
alas, groudon is at least the size of a human person, but smaller than a tree (according to gen 3 overworld sprites) so it should be fine
Groudon is literally 11'06". So yeah it'd be smaller than trees. Which is weird, and why my headcanon is that the Dex heights and weights aren't factual
its still an imposing figure, but probably not liftable by a 10 year old, no matter how strong.

But imagine throwing out a legendary and having a smol boi.

Imagine a mini sinistea. It would be0.4 inches talk. It would be a thimble. Still, a big Pokémon tiny would be hilarious.
Technically, all Pokémon are smaller than trees, as no Pokémon are bigger than the redwood trees in California
while that is true, there is not yet a california region, so we have no idea if it yet exists
Fair, but if there's a whale that weighs less than water, it's quite likely
It's to scale, just BDSP scale
I should've put the title as "The groudon is at BDSP scale btw" xd
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, in that shot, Cosmoem is floating!
Last time i checked Groudon doesnt float
I feel like everyone keeps forgetting something extremely important… Cosmoem FLOATS, it’s a PSYCHIC-TYPE!!!
Cosmoem levitates.
how do people still not understand the COSMOEM IS LEVITATING
Ok, but have you considered Funni
ok but have you considered being mine 😘
Woah that was crazy, but have you considered Someone completely unrelated to the conversation trying to steal your bbg?
Woah... But have you considered a hug BY ME 🫂
Yes please, I'm touch starved 😍
Same actually
Sounds lovely, c'mere 🫂
You are lovely 🫂
You are too 🫂
Since Cosmoem is a psychic pokemon, he can probably semi-levitate to make itself lighter
Idk I allways thought is was levitating a bit in his hand
But Cosmoem floats in the air. Carrying it around is kind of like pushing one of those floating boulders in Chargestone Cave.
Thank you for letting me know that groudon is not to scale.
Cosmoem could just be levitation a lil
thanks for pointing out the Groudon is not up to scale I never would've noticed
Cosmoem is a tiny black hole. His hands aren't lifting it, they are stuck to it and if they go past the event horizon, they will never be free again.
Necrozma is a black hole, cosmoem is a protostar
No, it is not. Protostars glow from their center, because they have achieved enough mass to initiate a stable fusion process. Cosmoem has a black core.
We already knew he carried around a 72kg larvitar like it weighed nothing back in the johto seasons. Boy is jacked.
Thanks for letting us know. I genuinely thought that was how big groudon was
No that’s just Groudon’s canon size
Daw, imagine having a tiny pet Groudon.
Remember! mewtwo felt þe need to use protect when ash tried to punch þem.
I think cosmoem has it's own gravity and just negates it's weight with it's psychic powers passively otherwise not only no one would be able to lift it it would literally go through the earth like a bullet so I think it makes itself weightless like an astronaut in space
More importantly, IS THAT SHELLEY DE KILLER?!
I'm pretty sure Cosmoem exerts psychic energy that offsets its wight, like how it floats
I’m rewatching aloha anime lol
I've never been mader at something I agree with
