Description[]
Pvz heroes Vs. Pokémon; Two characters from pretty weak species that have fire powers related to the sun in some way and because of that are some of the strongest characters in their respective verses.
Introduction[]
Wiz: Fire is a powerful force of nature that can be catastrophically dangerous or calmingly healing.
Boomstick: Uh, yeah...what Wiz said! But even if you happen to be a pathetic weakling, if you get your hands on fire no one's going to have the guts to call you that anymore!
Wiz: Like with Solar Flare, a fiery sunflower that really likes to turn up the heat!
Boomstick: And Volcarona the Sun Pokémon of the Unova region!
Wiz: Both these fire users can create storms of fire with minimal effort and easily tear apart armies with ease.
Boomstick: And we're here to watch them burn each other to ash! He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick!
Wiz: And It's Our Job to analyze their weapons armor and skills To find out who would win: A Death Battle!
Solar Flare[]
Wiz: The zombie apocalypse, It is a feared event that realistically can never happen.
Boomstick: Oh don't ruin the fun Wiz, anyways in the suburban town of Neighborville, or Suburbia or whatever there would be the occasional zombie attack.
Wiz: With Dr. Edgar George Zomboss leading the charge for brains not much could really stand in their way.
Boomstick: However a crazed pot wearing lunatic stood in his way-
Wiz: Speak for yourself.
Boomstick: What was that?!
Wiz: Nothing...
Boomstick: Well, This pot wearing maniac was Dave, but you can call him Crazy Dave.
Wiz: Dave's plan to defeat Zomboss was to use sentient plants to defeat his army of zombies, which somehow works?
Boomstick: From nuclear cucumbers to nuts that you can use as bowling balls to even a time travelling rose he has a lot at his disposal.
Wiz: Over time, after losing again, and again, and again Zomboss made a new Zombot to combat the plants to defeat Dave and his plants once and for all.
Boomstick: But because plot reasons Zomboss pressed a self-destruct button which in turn caused the zombot to explode and turn multiple zombies and plants into heroes.
Wiz: Because of this a multitude of plant and zombie heroes were created.
Boomstick: From a biollante Rip-off to a Green arrow/Batman/Bellsprout Fusion there were quite a few plant heroes that Zomboss accidentally created.
Wiz: However one of the first was a flaming flower that really turns up the heat; Solar Flare.
- Background
- Gender; Female
- Age; Unknown
- Height; Taller than a normal sunflower
- Sunflower hero
Boomstick: This "Sunflower torch" is pretty lit for originally being a stupid flower that just dances around all day.
Wiz: Solar flare was one of the first heroes for Dave to find and recruit along with Green shadow as well as others.
Boomstick: This Flower is able to light herself on fire by just putting on some goggles and creates a massive fiery explosion while doing it!
Wiz: Solar flare is also able to utilize her fire in many ways that don't involve attacking as well.
- Fire abilities
- Can Fly
- Can block attacks that would be lethal
- Can generate sunlight
- Can get hot enough to nullify ice based powers
Boomstick: Solar Flare is able to fly using her fire, which is just plain awesome!
Wiz: She can also block attacks from the likes of the Zombot 1000 with her fire which is capable of casually lifting an RV and tossing it around, Her fire is also able to generate sunlight which can make Solar Flare a bit stronger. That being said she doesn't always have to Rely on her fire.
Boomstick: Solar Flare has a lot of other powers and tricks to use in combat to take down her rotting enemies.
- Abilities and tricks
- Can conjure up vines to constrict her opponents and weaken them
- Can generate light to weaken opponents
- can summon weak mushrooms
- Wields a banana launcher
- Has an assortment of explosive berries
- Can heal with the 2nd best taco of all time
- Has a Tactical Cuke which can destroy any and all plants and zombies
- Can let out her solar energy
Wiz: Solar flare has a rather large arsenal of abilities but here are a few of her most well known ones, She is able to conjure up vines to entangle and weaken an opponent.
Boomstick: She can eat a taco probably supplied by Dave which heals her a bit, and she even has access to a fucking Nuke!
Wiz: Solar flare can also increase her durability like with other heroes and she can unleash her solar energy out at enemies and strike through everything.
Boomstick: Holy shit! Can anything stop this flower?!
- Feats
- Melted an entire Waterpark in seconds
- Was able to keep Rustbolt's shrink ray at bay
- Was able to beat Electric Boogaloo who generates electricity
- Engulfed an entire lawn in fire save for Dave and the nearby plants
Wiz: Not much as the only time she was beaten was in a video game and the zombies beat her in a 2 v 1.
Boomstick: How does someone lose a video game to zombies?!
Wiz: However Solar Flare does have other weaknesses that could be exploited by a smart enough opponent.
- Faults
- Despite being able to block out attacks doesn't always do it
- Is usually the last one to jump into a fight
- Can be overwhelmed by physically stronger foes
- According to Zomboss she needs to "Charge up"
- She may or may not need her goggles to use her powers
Wiz: Solar Flare, despite being able to block out attacks doesn't utilize this ability more often.
Boomstick: Not to mention that stronger opponent will sometimes be able to overwhelm her easily.
Wiz: Even with her flaws Solar Flare is capable of some pretty amazing things.
Boomstick: Like how she melted an ENTIRE WATERPARK! Just who does that?!
Wiz: The one and only sunflower hero; Solar Flare.
Volcarona[]
Wiz: The Pokémon world, it is an anomaly in itself filled to the brim which creatures that are shown to be highly dangerous.
Boomstick: Even if they are dangerous I love my rocky T-Rex!
Wiz: However while most Pokémon use their powers for their own survival some will use it to protect others.
Boomstick: Yeah, Yeah power of friendship bullshit and whatnot.
Wiz: Well In the Unova region, one of these Pokémon that protects others is Volcarona; The Sun Pokémon. However before becoming a Volcarona they start out as the torch Pokémon; Larvesta.
Boomstick: How could this little guy become powerful at all he looks so adorable!
Wiz: Even as a pre-evolved bug type Larvesta is capable of spewing flames that can reach up to 5,500 degrees Fahrenheit.
Boomstick: What the hell?! How is a tiny grub that strong!?
Wiz: However With lots of training Larvesta can become something more, Larvesta can Evolve.
Boomstick: This little grub evolves into a 5 foot fire moth of death!
- Background
- Average height: 5'03"/1.6 m
- Average Weight: 101.4 lbs./46.0 kg
- National Dex number: #637
- Pokémon type: Bug/Fire
- Abilities: Flame Body/ Swarm
Wiz: Volcarona is a large flaming moth that uses it's heat mainly to protect others from the cold rather than fight.
Boomstick: Even still, that doesn't mean it can't make a barbeque out of anyone that pisses it off.
Wiz: Volcarona is capable of spreading its scales around like embers and creating, and I quote "A sea of fire" by spreading it's scales around it and it's opponent.
Boomstick: Even without spreading it's scales around it can still be a match for even really strong Pokémon of Unova.
- Moveset
- Double edge
- Fiery Dance
- Thrash
- Rage powder
- Whirlwind
- Hurricane
- Amnesia
- Bug Bite
- Fire Blast
- Heat wave
- Flame wheel
- Screech
- Quiver Dance
Wiz: Volcarona can increase it's power with quiver and fiery dance and can lower it's opponents stats with Screech as well as being able to knock them away with a whirlwind.
Boomstick: This giant moth can also create a massive hurricane to tear it's opponent to pieces.
Wiz: Although if used in sunlight it is much less likely to hit. However one of Volcarona's greatest feats was using it's fire as a replacement sun.
Boomstick: What. The. Actual. Fuck?!
Wiz: Volcarona showed off this power when the lower atmosphere was covered in ash and it used it's fire as a temporary replacement.
Boomstick: This Giant Moth also can also keep up with some pseudo-legendries!
Wiz: One of the stronger of these pseudo-legends; Tyranitar can take down an entire mountain with ease
Boomstick: And Volcarona's special attack or basically it's more magical ranged attacks like flamethrower is actually stronger than Tyranitar's physical attack.
Wiz: Although Volcarona is only stronger by a slight margin this is still powerful.
Boomstick: WTF?! Can anything stop this Moth of death?
Wiz: Well yes, Volcarona can be defeated pretty easily as it can be still be hurt by elemental properties like water even if it was not directly attacked with it.
- Weaknesses
- 4X weak to rock
- 2X weak to water
- 2X weak to flying
- Moves probably won't have any "Super-effective" Traits on any non-Pokémon
- Flare blitz, take down, and double edge do damage to Volcarona after hitting a target
Wiz: Even with these weaknesses Volcarona can take on some of the strongest Pokémon throughout the world.
- Feats
- It's fire served as a replacement sun
- Can keep up with pseudo-legendary Pokémon
- Can spread it's scales so wildly it creates a "Sea of fire"
- With it's abilities it can burn opponents that make contact or increase the power of it's bug type moves.
Boomstick: Damn, that's awesome as all hell.
Wiz: It truly deserves it's title as "The sun Pokémon"
Interlude[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set, Let's end this debate once and for all!
Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE!!!
Fight![]
Location: Neighborville
A overview of a small suburban town is shown from above. Zombies and plants can be seen scattered about throughout the town fighting each other. Eventually the view comes down to a small house with a lawn filled with sunflowers basking in the sunlight. Within these sunflowers a taller sunflower with goggles is seen, the plant hero; Solar Flare.
Despite the whole "Zombie apocalypse" thing going on throughout the entire world Solar Flare was letting off some steam by basking in the sun with her sunflower buddies. She and the multitude of sunflowers seemed to bop to some sort of inaudible tune as they basked in the sun's rays. Solar Flare had been taking a break from fighting zombies for a bit to bask in the sunlight, after all she felt that she deserved it with with a win/loss ratio of 1-4 if you count that one time she was beat in an arcade game. She didn't feel like she had to do any fighting for today, how wrong she would appear to be in a few minutes.
As Solar Flare was becoming drowsy from the sunlight intake a powerful heatwave washed over her and the sunflowers that were rooted next to her, bringing her to her senses. While Solar Flare could take the excessive heat she looked over at the tired and overheated sunflowers, some of which were actually wilting and dying. Solar flare tried to cool them down by blowing on them or fanning them with her leaves but it was in vain as the lawn was left with only sunflower left in the lawn, herself. Solar Flare looked out at the town only to see that this heatwave wasn't a small one in the slightest as she saw even some plants on fire from it, and even some fire-based plants wilting from it. "What in hell is causing this madness?!" She'd ask herself not expecting to get an answer.
Ironically the answer decided to instead reveal itself to her as a massive moth with white fur and 6 orange wings which it was spreading embers out around Neighborville. Solar Flare knew for sure that this moth was causing the heatwave. She gets ready to attack it but suddenly feels a massive burning pain across her entire body as Volcarona flies closer down to Solar Flare. "Agh! What the hell is this?! Another heatwave?!" Volcarona glares down at Solar Flare as she struggles to get up. Solar Flare then speaks up "Look fire moth guy, I love heat as much as the next plant but not everyone likes it as much as we do so could you tone it down a bit?" Volcarona looks down at Solar Flare confused. It then screeches loudly at Solar Flare before charging at her with a take down. Solar Flare is launched through the window of a building as a loud crash is heard, Solar Flare then jumps out of the building through the window she crashed through and eats a taco quickly healing the injuries she had taken from the initial attack from Volcarona. Solar Flare then says "Alright, who called the pest control?" before running at Volcarona as it too charges at Solar Flare with a Flare Blitz.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FIGHT!
Solar Flare goes to pull her goggles on over eyes but is intercepted by Volcarona's Flare Blitz causing a massive explosion knocking both to opposite buildings. Volcarona is the first to recover as it flies over to where Solar Flare was launched and goes into the smoke, dust and rubble, suddenly two brightly glowing orange eyes appear in the smoke as Volcarona turns around to see the eyes. Solar Flare then says "Let's turn up the heat!" as a flaming explosion is caused knocking Volcarona into the air away from the house Solar Flare was knocked into as she flies up to Volcarona, blasting it down to the ground with her fire. Solar Flare then flies down at Volcarona who begins to blast a stream of fire with flamethrower at Solar Flare who in turn blasts her own flamethrower attack but hers is weaker and is overtaken by Volcarona's fire as it consumes her. Once the smoke clears Solar Flare is shown to be on fire before her face, leaves, and shirt are freed from the fire. "You're pretty good with fire buddy but can you do this?" Solar Flare would then create a miniature sun with her fire and blasts it at Volcarona. As the Miniature sun flies at Volcarona it creates a significantly larger miniature sun and blasts it at Solar Flare. "Oh...so apparently you can..." the large fireball blasts through Solar Flare's miniature sun but Solar Flare dodges it quite easily by flying over it.
Solar Flare then pulls out a Whack-a-Zombie mallet and flies at Volcarona, Volcarona then begins blasting streams of fire with Flamethrower all of which Solar Flare either dodges or blocks with her own fire. Once she reaches Volcarona she Pummels it with her mallet repeatedly to the point where she splinters it into pieces. With a final "BONK" with the stick of the mallet Solar Flare knocks Volcarona away and it begins to see stars as the pummeling has dizzied it. Solar flare then tackles [Not the Pokémon move] Volcarona to the ground. Volcarona attempts to take Solar Flare out with Take down but ends up injuring itself by flying into a building as a couple chunks of brick and concrete fly off the building and hit Volcarona badly injuring it. Volcarona the snaps out of it's confusion and notices Solar Flare holding a taco in her leaf, it flies at her and uses bug bite to attempt to get the taco but Solar Flare in a bullfight-like fashion casually sidesteps and dodges then eats the taco. "Sorry buddy, I'm not a fan of the whole 'Sharing' thing" Solar Flare says sarcastically Volcarona slightly enraged blasts a powerful gust of wind with it's wings that slowly begins to form into a hurricane tearing of trees, pulling water from lakes and tearing building and roads into concrete shrapnel. "Okay! You are really starting to 'BUG' me now!" Solar Flare yells as she flies through the hurricane and blasts out a small beam of sunlight that hits Volcarona in the eyes. [Pokémon lowering stat sound effect]
Volcarona screeches in pain and turns to Solar Flare who is harder for it to see but it still decides to attack her and Flies at her with a flare blitz and carries her into the air before finishing it's attack with an explosion. Solar Flare rolls in the air before regaining balance and looks at the moth who is charging up a massive fireball that looks more like a miniature brightly glowing sun. "What the hell is that thing doing!?" Solar Flare looks around and notices a Tactical Cuke being launched in the air, she grabs ahold of it and throws it at Volcarona who blasts the miniature sun at Solar Flare The two attacks collide and end up causing a massive explosion consuming both The fire flower and the sun Pokémon. When the dust settles Volcarona looks amongst everything and begins breathing heavily as it seems weak being crushed under all that rubble but having barely survived it makes a screechy laugh in victory. It's laugh is cut short however when it hears- "Wow! that was really cool buddy!" The Volcarona turns to see Solar Flare, now the size of a house looking down at it. Despite the entirety of Neighborville or what's left of it being scaldingly hot Volcarona feels a chill go up it's spine. "hey buddy, you might be able to use some of the heat of the sun. But I use ALL OF IT!" Solar Flare's face begins to glow a bright yellow as Volcarona flies behind the broken ruins of Crazy Dave's house Solar Flare then after absorbing the sun's rays blasts a powerful sunbeam right at Volcarona who is consumed by the sunbeam. Volcarona screeches in pain as it is completely disintegrated by the sunbeam. This attack let out all of Solar Flare's solar power, so much that she returned back to her normal size. "Well...I didn't expect this to happen but I'm sure that everything will be fi-" "Ahem!" Rose appears behind Solar Flare and gestures for her to follow her. "Alright! Alright! I'll fix it!" Solar flare yells at rose as they both disappear with a magical glow.
K.O!
Results[]
Solar Flare
- + Was a bit quicker
- Could at least fight against and win against a zombie with electricity powers
- + had more versatility due to tricks
- + Could counteract Volcarona's stat buffing
- + Pulled power from the sun
- + Could shield any possible fatal hit
- + Was smarter than the average Volcarona
- - Firepower was likely weaker than Volcarona's
- - If Volcarona's replica sun didn't produce sunlight it could lead into a bad situation
Volcarona
- + Likely had a lot of battle experience
- + Firepower was much greater
- - Fire based attacks were neutral to it
- - Most of it's most powerful moves did recoil damage
- - it's stat buffing would be completely useless
- - It likely wasn't fast enough to catch Solar Flare
- - If it's Replica sun generated sunlight it would have powered up Solar Flare
- - Was less intelligent than Solar Flare on average
Boomstick: How...The Fuck?!
Wiz: Okay, look I get it and I too thought Volcarona could win but based on the research we had Solar Flare wins 60% of the time.
Boomstick: Volcarona's firepower was way stronger though! I mean it could create a sea of fire with it's wings! And it could make a replica sun!
Wiz: While yes, that is impressive there are a couple flaws with this being; 1) Volcarona's fire is rarely fulfilling the role of a sun and most of it's other feats don't come close to that meaning this was likely an outlier situation or like with Hypno where "-There once was an incident where it took away a child it hypnotized." meaning these aren't always the case with every individual of these Pokémon species. But also 2) Volcarona's sea of fire isn't always present and if it was it is under 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius as it cannot evaporate water.
Popup: We only bring up the evaporation because it is shown that fire type based effects like Groudon's harsh sunlight can evaporate water.
Boomstick: Okay...but couldn't it raise it's stats until it could just one-shot Solar Flare? I mean a +6 Volcarona that could probably destroy a mountain would be pretty damn strong right?
Wiz: Well, in this case we are using a wild Volcarona but even if we say it's a freed trained Pokémon or if it's the one that created the replica sun there is one problem; Solar Flare specializes in stat debuffing meaning it makes any stat buff that Volcarona does completely meaningless. Heck She could possibly debuff Volcarona faster than it could buff itself.
Boomstick: Yeah I guess that makes sense.
Wiz: Another thing is that Solar Flare is fast enough to beat Electric Boogaloo, a zombie that generates electricity and although we don't explicitly see the fight we do know that Solar Flare won the fight so she is at the least at his level. So at the least Solar Flare can keep up with someone who generates electricity and at the most she can just dodge it.
Boomstick: Woah! What the hell!?
Wiz: Another thing, if Volcarona's only saving grace was creating a replica sun then that might have been the deciding factor of the fight. You see the plants in plants vs. zombies when exposed to a large amount of sunlight get way bigger and stronger and when I say stronger I mean STRONGER!
Boomstick: I think I know where this is going but continue...
Wiz: Basically if Volcarona did happen to hit Solar Flare she probably would have grown so powerful that Volcarona was screwed.
Boomstick: But what about the cool laser beam kill? How can she do that?
Wiz: Well In the comics Zomboss comments on how Solar Flare needs to "Charge up" while this might be referring to Solar Flare's signature superpower "Sunburn" it is more likely referring to a trick in Solar Flare's arsenal; "Sunstrike" Which literally says "All plants are grown with the power of solar radiation, sometimes you just have to let it out."
Boomstick: Okay, but what does that have to do with Solar Flares laser beam of death?
Wiz: I'm getting to that, there is only one other time in plant's vs zombies where a plant and a sunflower no less charges up and attack only to let out solar energy after charging up. That plant being the sunflower queen, at that scale Solar Flare easily has more power than Volcarona even without absorbing sunlight from a replica sun from Volcarona as even though plants on average absorb only 11% of the sun's energy and these being giant super plants they likely absorb even more Solar Flare can blast at least 440,000 tons of force and it is likely, no absolutely possible that she can blast out EVEN MORE!
Boomstick: [Jaw dropped] WHAT. THE. FUCK!?
Wiz: Sure Volcarona is capable of all these powerful feats but based on everything we've seen Volcarona lacked the Speed, durability and versatility-
Boomstick: -Not to mention Firepower!
Wiz: And that, which sealed it's fate The winner is-
Boomstick: -Wait hold on a second didn't that rose go back in time to stop Solar Flare from Fucking up their town?
Wiz: Um...actually yes so everything should change in around 15 seconds.
Boomstick: Time hu-
Wiz: Please don't anyways the winner is- [Everything shifts around and Wiz and Boomstick blink for a sec]
Boomstick: uh...hey Wiz? weren't you going to explain Volcarona?
Wiz: Huh, uh Yeah! I was so uh...[Screen turns on and shows Solar Flare Walking off from a pile of ash]...What.
Boomstick: Uh...does that mean?
Wiz: Hold on, let's look at our notes. [Wiz and Boomstick look at their notes] Huh, I guess she does win.
Boomstick: I guess this means another one bites the 'Dust' from this 'Blast' of a 'Firefight!'
Wiz:...I hate you, The winner is Solar Flare.
Trivia[]
- The connections between these characters is that they are two fire users that have some relation to the sun in some way that are from pretty weak species (Sunflowers and bug types) and their usage of fire makes them very powerful, they both also have a vast variety of abilities other than their fire in their arsenals.
- Their contrasts being that Volcarona is a wild animal that fights all the time while Solar Flare is an intelligent plant that prefers not to fight.
- Despite loving PvZ I did not expect Solar Flare to win.
- The Fight would likely be either in 2D or sprite
- Both can cause destruction with being able to create fields of fire around themselves with Solar Flare when she put's on her goggles and Volcarona when it creates a "sea of fire"
