Nintendo Hard is now YMMV, which is due to a TRS decision.


* GeniusDitz: His OpaqueNerdGlasses are there for a reason. Despite his craziness, Ananpi is a very strategic battler, who often will use Bounce to avoid supereffective moves (as he did during Ingrid's battle against Channah). However, his tendencies of this are much more often shown when he watches an episode of ''Series/{{Pointless}}'' or ''Series/OnlyConnect'', in which cases the cloudcuckoolander will be right more often than not. This is somewhat less impressive for the former show (since it's the entire point of the game), but it is ''extremely'' so for the latter, which is a game show that is widely known for being [[NintendoHard ridiculously hard]]. According to [=Goldenheart388=], he has:

* StoutStrength: As a human, he gained a notable amount of pudge from eating pizza, so he's developed a build that's slightly more rotund than the more [[HeroicBuild athletic, cut]] figure Tommy has. On top of having the same powers, he is every bit as physically strong ([[TruthInTelevision if not significantly stronger]]). While the difference is enough to be noticeable from up close, nobody really calls it out.

Because he does this using the voice and face of [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness the usually pleasant]] [[NiceGuy Tommy Petersen]], this comes off as [[VocalDissonance really frightening]] to his loved ones and [[FailedAttemptAtDrama douchey and annoying]] to his opponents.

* GeniusDitz: Downplayed. While he's currently a lot more competent and on-the-ball, he has (and continues to have) a few moments of absent-mindedness, especially when he was younger. For instance, he accidentally called a trunk line within the Stormchaser trying to reach one of the people there and, in the ensuing confusion, gave up and hired a (likely expensive) singing telegram to send a message instead.
