Talk:Celebi vs Stewie/@comment-28510457-20190405152304/@comment-26941217-20190406232415

AncientPower is a coin toss - there's no guarantee that Celebi will get the stat boosts every time it's used. Also, while technically the whole Twigzilla thing from M04 was Celebi's own power, it needed to be under manipulation by the Dark Ball and the Iron Masked Marauder to draw that power out. We saw why Celebi doesn't use that power all the time towards the end of the movie, where it overexerted itself and presumably died. I do agree that the longer the fight goes on, the more beneficial it would be for Stewie as he would have the Pokemon's patterns and attacks figured out, but I don't see him surviving long enough to formulate a strategy before Celebi simply overwhelms him.
