Hellooooo Milliways! Coming at ya from a gray day in the desert with today's Wednesday DE.

Question: How good of a fighter is your pup?

Ahsoka absolutely is and canon agrees. She's survived some pretty grim fights in pretty dramatic ways.

Jess is an amazing hand to hand and melee fighter, able to mix many different styles to use what suits the situation best. Not to mention she has the typical spider-folk agility.

Ben is not a good fighter by himself, but is unfortunately a Cuisinart of violence when his tentacles come into play. He does not like doing this though.

Wen Qing is okay as a fighter in Cultivator circles but her main aim is healing.

Yamato's noted to be a really good fighter in canon. On his own, he's able to handily take down groups of other hand-to-hand fighters, and Kyotaro, who's well-trained, significantly larger than him, and armed with a gun pointed at Yamato's head at the time, is noted to still be being cautious of getting too close to him. Whether he's the strongest Chosen in a hand-to-hand fight is debatable: Taichi certainly thinks he is, but Yamato is pretty adamant that Taichi's the better fighter, and their fights on-screen all result in either them being separated or some other inconclusive ending.

With Gabumon, the two of them are the only Chosen to take down a Dark Master on their own (although Pinocchimon seems to be the weakest of the four), and Taichi says outright that only the two of them could solo Piedmon (the strongest of the Dark Masters -- although in the actual fight with him, both Taichi and Yamato working together get taken down, and it ends up taking the entire team + Ogremon, Centalmon, and Andromon to beat him, so Taichi was definitely underestimating Piedmon there).
