Abstract

In this paper, the feasibility of the statement made within the "Pokedex" about the Pokémon
"Darmanitan" that it can "destroy a dump truck with one punch" is explored. It was found that
it would require ~47,200 Darmanitans to produce the 1.04*10^11 J of energy needed to vaporise the dump truck entirely, although the denition of the word "destroy" is still up for debate.
