    I’m thinking entirely too hard for a meme about the aerodynamics of a pokemon, but there’s no way that a literal Bulbasaur can beat an actual car, right?

      Bulbasaur has curves, jeep is a series of boxes. So very possibly bulbasaur wins.

          I remember when I learned that jeep Windshields fold down not because it’s a cool lifestyle thing, but because it allows you to stack them on top of each other in the holds of liberty ships… didn’t have to worry about roll bars in ww2 I suppose.

      Well to win, the jeep would have to be running, so most would be disqualified before the match even starts. If the ref is feeling nice they can allow up to 3 attempts to start the jeep.

      It’s not clear if they properly matched the Reynolds numbers and other similarity parameters to properly make this comparison.

      to be fair, the jeep is a car, and not a particularly aerodynamic one, and one that can go much much faster than a pokemon ever could conceive of so.
