High Speed Pokemon Physics

arceus wills it. therefore its true

they're from pandoraaaaaaa 0^o (yes i just went there)

Praise the laws laid down by our lord and master multi-armed-llama! *bows*

In response to the "different universe" part. Doesn't hurt or help that argument, but still.

In response to that "Pokemon but not humans" part.

About to get a whole lot worse Akane; besides, catgirls aren't all that cool anyway.

One can rationalize & give reasons for why, within the Pokemon world, these land animals can run as fast as they do while still obeying physics. It's actually pretty fun. For example, biology & normal Darwinian evolution is imperfect & incredibly slow, & thus makes it hard for creatures to be perfect versions of themselves in an ever-changing environment. Yet in the Pokemon world, evolution; both in the Darwinian sense & in the Pokemon game mechanic sense, happens hella fast. Maybe the Pokemon world's Darwinian evolution makes it so almost all of a Pokemon's genetic code stay exactly the same for their offspring, & only some specific things change. That would explain why a child of a Nidoking & a Rattata is a Nidoking & not some weird Nido-Rat mutant. This would mean that Pokemon are able to be ideal versions of themselves as imagined by our creator Arceus. This is starting to sound eerily similar to a Creationist belief system....

Biology for Pokemon happens hella fast too. Pokemon increase in strength & speed & the like by leaps & bounds from being trained. This works a lot like our biology. For example; the skeletons of medieval English bowmen are incredibly strange; because the bones on the draw half of their body are fucking huge compared to the bow half. It looks really freaky, honestly. That's because English longbows require crazy draw strength & bones increase in size and density to accommodate the stress put on the body.

First off, fucking cool. Second, that works for everything in the body, for the most part; & for Pokemon too, just better & faster. Maybe Pokemon's joints, bones, muscles & feet\hooves are all strengthened or hardened or made more rough at a super fast rate through training. Like a hyper metabolism, but for everything else too. Just think if a cheetah's ligaments & muscles could handle the strain of higher speeds. Better lungs & bigger heart for more oxygen; better blood vessels to get the blood to the muscles faster; bigger, red muscles with quick twitch that lower the energy needed for the same output of work; paws nearly perfect for gripping the ground & joints that can withstand the stress put on them by the run. They would clock 120 easy, even without being in some alternate universe.

That's just with a normal cheetah. Fire-breathing, hyper-intelligent creatures most certainly on a different form of evolution & biology than animals? No doubt they could reach higher speeds. They might even have superior forms of muscles, ligaments and nerves that can withstand the strain naturally, even without training.
