''First of all, Shulk's visions are not based off ether. ''

Alvis: "Your visions are the flow of ether itself. Ether is the very source of our world's existence. Where and how much ether there exists now, and in the future, can be predicted. Therefore, in principle, the future of living beings such as us can also be predicted. And there is one thing that makes possible the visualisation of those predictions."

Shulk: "You mean the Monado."

But if you have any proof otherwise feel free to share.

''"Even if Sora is somehow faster that Shulk and can stay out of his way, Shulk has large AOEs such as Monado Buster and Cyclone." ''

Sora doesn't have to stay out of his way, Sora's typical combat strategy is blitz the opponent and hit them- if Shulk can't avoid that then he's not getting a chance to use any AoEs. Sora also can just freeze Shulk in time, or confuse him, or inflict any number of status effects once he hits Shulk.

"So what if Sora isn't dumb. Shulk is still smarter since he's an engineer."

If this was a match about building/designing something then that would be an advantage. Otherwise Shulk being an engineer honestly doesn't matter one way or the other.
