Now normally the “””accepted””” answer is Tyrone, he’s a moose (have you seen those things they can eat entire WALNUTS with just their teeth, like CRUNCH into that it’s wild) and he’s bulky so he’s hard to take down. while i understand the reasoning behind Tyrone he has one very glaring weakness: his antlers. the antlers on top of his head are giant blind spots and his stubby arms have NEVER been proven to be able to reach the absolute top of them while moving. thus, if someone were to grab onto his antlers WHILE FIGHTING he would be rendered effectively useless. so Tyrone’s completely out once you use your brain. that leaves us with the other 4 characters, Pablo, Uniqua, Tasha, and Austin. while Tasha has raw power as a hippo, she’s entirely too slow and is easily combo-ed by faster lighter characters. so she’s out. Uniqua is a complete mystery, as her animal-type is rare/unknown and hard to research. thus, she has an innate advantage of “fog of war” so to speak on an individual basis. however Uniqua has been shown to use smarts as opposed to any innate skill to solve problems in-universe so it’s safe to assume that her actual physical abilities are rather weak. Pablo is a penguin and is too much of a wild card to ever consider most powerful, even if he is most dangerous (due to his seemingly random strategies he’s impossible to plan for). so who does that leave you? the one man (mammal? mammal.) who has the physical ability to reach Tyrone's antlers. Austin is a KANGAROO, who can JUMP HIGH. in addition he is often shown as the most athletic character outside of Tyrone, so he could probably hold his own in a fight. in the end the only character i can accept as the true strongest Backyardigan is Austin.
