Five characters from my fics the Anteater can beat (and five he can't)
The Moonshine Mob are Insectos in Stormwolf, and they have several kinds of insects, arachnoids and gastropods. But their strongest member is a gigantic anteater, which takes effort to be stopped by most fighters. Whom can he beat?
Can: Don Shellsound
The Don orders the Anteater around, but that's not because of his strength. The snail mob boss is frail, slow and has a megaphone that can shoot soundwaves, but the Anteater could eat him if he wanted.
Can't: Charlotte Smoothie
Smoothie leads the Juicy Division of the Big Mom Pirates and is a mighty warrior. She is not much smaller than the Anteater and can outgrow him. While he can grab her with his tongue, she can catch the tongue and juice it dry, winning instantly. She also has very powerful techniques, some of which are too much for any durability.
Can: Princess Avyanna
Avyanna is a warrior princess. Her blaster, her daggers and especially her cutlass will help her out in a fight. Alas, the Anteater is too big and strong for her to deal enough damage, and he can also simply eat her if he uses his tongue.
Can't: Dahlia Hawthorne
Dahlia might look demure, but she was a murderess even before she became a vampire whose gift was poison. She is immune to being eaten, plus she can poison the Anteater or even use carbon monoxide to gas him to death. If the tongue wraps her, she can surround herself with venom.
Can: Swift Star
Swift is a cop, but has allied with the Moonshine Mob once. He can beat the Anteater if he freezes his tongue, but his skills with ice are limited and he is small enough for the beast to eat him. The Anteater is far stronger.
Can't: SkullFace
The big beast of Stormwolf is above the big beast of the Moonshine Mob. A giant tongue is useful against human-sized foes, but not a giant Triceratops. On the other hand, the fiery and icy breaths can damage the Anteater, and so can the electric stream. SkullFace wins in both brute force and counters.
Can: Seth Clearwater
Seth is fast and strong, and his battle axe can bisect demon knights. But the gigantic Anteater is too much to handle for someone with no ranged attacks, who can't aim for the weak point that's the tongue. Also, the Anteater is even stronger physically.
Can't: Lightning Dawn
This battle greatly favors Lightning for several reasons. Lightning is used to big brutes like the Anteater, and while he will have trouble with the tongue, he does have something that has proved to be effective. Cerise has beaten the Anteater with her Uniforce and Lightning is much stronger if he is an Enticorn, so he will not have such a hard time.
Can: Alix
Alix is versatile, and she can put up a very good fight in all of her forms. However, while she can fight well and land several blows, the Anteater has some advantages. Namely, he is bigger and stronger than her in any of her forms, and is hard for her to land a decisive blow to his tongue. She can win, but the odds are against her.
Can't: Pan
Pan Hancock is an experienced warrior and can control lightning. He is too much for the Anteater for a variety of reasons. If the tongue wraps Pan, he can unleash electricity around him, which won't end well for the Anteater. He can also unleash a Thunderstorm, which provides enough firepower to deal severe damage to such a big target, and Lightning Rockets that serve the same purpose.
