MODERATORS
Lightning also functionally only exists for a fraction of a second (most of the time) and then its energy is dispersed. It's like how sparks are also ridiculously hot, but they are tiny and fleeting so it doesn't really effect anything. I think any stable entity that has lightning-like heat as just a base temperature is kind of incomparable in terms of impact, though I realize you already said that, but I guess my point is that this creature isn't as hot as a lightning strike, it's as hot as hundreds of successive lightning strikes on the same spot (and then the mega evo wears out, I guess).
and this pokemon doesnt exist at all, which is much less than a fraction of a second, so it can easily be hotter than lightning
I should have considered that because it doesn't exist, it neither retains nor produces any heat at all and therefore should be an ice type. Perhaps ice/ghost, since ghosts don't exist, or ice/dark because in Japanese dark type is "evil type" and moral values don't exist . . . maybe it should have all three types, since Pokemon with three types don't exist.
the least existing type of pokemon exists the most, yes
So, in our emerging field of Pokemon ontology, you would rate a Sound type Pokemon as existing more than a Fire type Pokemon because the Sound type, by virtue of not existing, exists less than the Fire type?
Would this constitute a sort of hypostatic union of existence and non-existence? If not, how would you define the Great Chain of Un-Being here? [i.e. the hierarchy of unreality that makes one unreal thing less real than another unreal thing]
