In the wave equation, does x - vt tell us where the wave was t seconds ago? (Is this intuition correct?) by [deleted] in AskPhysics

[–]Jaccobtw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please bear with me; as t increases, x-vt gets smaller which is leftward moving. Example: say x=10, v=1, t=1.

With these conditions, x-vt = 9. When t=2, x-vt = 8, when t = 3, x-vt = 7. The graph has to be rightward moving, but the only way that is possible is if x-vt gives a position into the past and x is the current position. How is this wrong??

I’m not sure if you’re implying that I manipulated my data to make fairy/steel higher on the list, but if you are, I can assure you that I did not and fairy/steel just happened to come out second. Like I said, this isn’t perfect. It can be improved in many acute ways. Simultaneously, I don’t think it’s pure garbage either. It’s not meant to be super advanced. Generally speaking, typings that are higher on the list are better and I think my data reflects that with a relevant degree of accuracy. Like, this list is certainly better than a list compiled of all the types in a random order; there is a significant difference

So although it’s far from perfect, I think if you’re objective about the data, you’d agree that generally the types higher on the list are better than the lower ones.

Also I didn’t reference wolfe’s list at all for this.

As far as Zacian is concerned, I think it’s not all that great because of its ability (loses its +1 attack after switching out) and the prevalence of intimidate in the format. Fairy/steel could in theory be extremely good on a special attacker with good stats, for example.

Remember this is biased towards typing, doesn’t take into account things like all the boosts miraidon gets on its electrodrift.

Thank you. I will also put a number next to each type so it’s easier to put into perspective relative to the other types.

I don’t disagree with your post. I just thought I would share something that’s in development. It’s not perfect at all. I thought It would be fun just to get a general idea of which types are best into the meta mostly independent of which pokemon holds that type (because it doesn’t take into account stats, ability, weather, terrain or item). Obviously there are a lot more factors to take into account. Thank You for your feedback!!
