[Discussion] Pica VS Gaunlet

[OG sama]

Well thanks. I'd still give Pica the win. His assimilation speed is virtually instantaneous. So he ultimately will win IMO.... but he's not going to mop the floor with them in just a few seconds.

CP-9 doesn't have a whole lot to catch Pica out of the rock....

Got that right! Before you came along I would of said he no diffs, but because they are somewhat a bad matchup for Pica I would say he wins with low diff. Like you said they are most likely not going to touch his main body before they go down. But they won't lose in a matter of seconds.

Anyhow, he stops at Crocodile. Sand is simply divided up rock. Since both of them can control it, that basically leaves a Pica who so far has low feats in combat and no Haki against Crocodile who has intangibility.

Yeah I also found Croco boy winning debatable. I suppose Pica loses simply because of bad match up. No matter how weird it seems. But bad matchups happen sometimes in this manga.

Agreed. I'd say some of the times Robin doesn't get a match up is in part due to the idea of a bad Match up.... At least pre-skip.


How Pica Would Fair in each individual fight.

1- CP9
Location - Dressrosa
Intel - Manga


Pica's victory. It'll just take some time.



2- Crocodile
Location - A location with Sand and Rocks
Intel - Manga

Crocodile's win. Pica has nothing to hurt Croc with. His element is just a more compact version of Croc's.



3- Moriha w Oars
Location - Thriller Bark
Intel - Manga

Pica's win. Oarz is just a big target. The hardest part of this match up is actually hitting Moriah because of Doppleganger... However, considering Pica's large scale Rock manipulation, I would wager he'd overwhelm Moriah through sheer AoE. If Moriah's shadow has nowhere to run that's safe... Moriah is done.


4- Ace
Location - Ace vs Teach
Intel - Manga

Debatable...Through his Stone Manipulation of the location (which is basically an island's worth), Pica can simply continue manipulating it into a small, but extrodinarily thick dome. Which would eventually deprave Ace of Oxygen ==> Suffocation ==> No Fire without Oxygen molocules for him to use. It's also going to be hard for Ace to actaully land a hit. His DF is good against a flesh target, and even some Logia... but it doesn't impact deeply into the ground from what we saw with his fight against BB. So It'd be difficult for him to score a solid hit on Pica.

Though, the difficult part is creating that dome as Ace's destructive capacity is quite large. Making it easy for him to destroy large swaths of Rock at once with moves like Dai Enkai. Considering an island has only so much rock... its a question of can Ace hold.

5- YYnM Teach
Location - Marineford
Intel - Manga


Debatable. Teach's only chance is being able to either pull in Pica, or absorb rocks. Because if he can't absorb the rock (like he did with the vilage).... he's done for. I don't see any counter he'd have for the Golem Statue tbh. He doesn't have the physical power. So either he can do something to absorb it.... or he gets flattened.

However, whatever he did to challenge Dai Enkai might pull him through.
