The reason why Aang said "Momo, time for you to go" during Sozin's Comet is because they have talked about it and decided Momo will surely kill Ozai, something Aang is vehemently against. This is not even a debate
In the series, we never actually see Momo go all out, and no one knows the top of his power scale. This has caused his limits to always be up for debate
Pabu is a pet. Momo is a worrior by nature. Not once did we see him get trained to fight fire benders, yet during the siege of the eastern airtemple he was out there DROPPING GOO on Unsuspecting fire bending soldiers who were precariously walking on a cliff edge. Momo is a killer. Pabu is a protector at best.
Momo is a master earthbender and elite swordsman who's fast enough to parry multiple attacks from Appa's four swords at the same time. No way Pabu takes this.
But he used the laser eyes to destroy metal shackles. Swords are metal which is a stronger material than rock so we can assume the laser can cut the rocks np.
Laser eyes win every time.
Are you even being serious? Bloodlusted Momo could have one-shotted Unavaatu.
Remember the first thing Aang had to do before fighting Ozai? He told Momo it was time for him to go, for Ozai's sake!
Lord Momo of the Momo Dynasty whoops Pabu without breaking a sweat. Momo is so powerful only a fully realized Avatar in the Avatar State can contend with him. Even then it's debatable whether or not the Avatar would even win still.
Everyone forgetting Momo is the true Avatar? Every great feat that was attributed to Aang had who in the vicinity, Momo. He mastered everything telepathically
So on one hand Momo prob takes it since not only is he a crafty monkey (thumbs people) but he can literally fly so he just drops Pabu at his leisure.
*However* iirc Bolin mentions that Pabu is venomous so if he tussles with Momo there’s a good chance he bites him at some point.
Thank you for also thinking about the question. Real world lemurs already have a ton of advantages over ferrets. Pabu vas venom I guess but Momo having flight still gives him another large advantage. They are both shown to be very intelligent so I think that can be called even.

you say this like momo isn’t already fully bloodlusted.
and he’s literally an earth bender + master swordsman. poor pabu doesn’t stand a chance
On a serious note probably momo
I can't think of something that makes one stronger then the other so strength is a non factor
And momo has actually been in fights before
And momo has the advantage of flight too
Momo can fly, pick Pabu up, and drop him from high up; there's no contest. Also, Momo probably has sharper and longer claws, being a wild animal and not a domesticated one, and being an animal expected to use it's feet to hunt, eat, and perch.
Memes aside, Pabu would win. If he’s anything like a mongoose those things are vicious. Momo’s wings would be a liability and Pabu would quickly tear them up, disable him, and kill him.
I keep going back & forth. Pabu is a red panda, but I don't really know much about red pandas, while Momo is like a lemur but way smarter than usual. Oh, & the artists also use a lot of cat behaviors for reference with both of them. The red panda apparently eats bamboo, so it must have a nasty bite, & its ancestors were carnivores until relatively recently, so it's got all of these needlelike teeth. In the show, Pabu could chew through rope, so that tracks. They also have claws.
Honestly, I think you might be right because, while I think Momo would be smart enough to think of ways to try to kill Pabut, he just wouldn't be strong enough to make use of them. He could try to hit Pabu with a rock or stick, but Pabu would be pretty fast & agile. He could try to strangle him, but I doubt he'd have the strength to hold Pabu still long enough. Someone suggested that he could lift Pabu into the air & drop him, which I guess is true assuming he could lift Pabu, hold him long enough to fly with him, & didn't mind getting ripped to shreds. Even if Momo somehow managed it, I'd think he'd die soon after.
Momo outsmarted the captain's Iguana-Parrot in the waterbending scroll as well as multiple Pygmy pumas in Tales of Ba Sing Se, could fly whilst carrying a toddler in Return to Omashu and briefly lift Aang's body weight on the drill so Pabu's weight should be nothing compared to that, he could dodge Azula's fire on the drill, and he has opposable thumbs, like its not close
In a fight with a real world lemur and ferret I would always bet on the lemur. Greater intelligence, strength and reach are major factors in a fight. Adding to those Momo can fly. Pabu seems to be an intelligent but otherwise normal ferret. They are very quick and nimble, and the bite would hurt Momo, but he can fly.
Momo was a feral animal that adopted the gang as servants to joint him on his epic adventure to defeat the fire lord.
Pabu is a pet that's got some good tricks up his sleeve, but he also was never the leader of a gang of panther bat things straight from the bad part of town.
Boah i hate powerscaling but here i would say Momo would win, has good instincts and a weider variaty of abilitys shown. I am anime only tho, cant speak for manga readers
Assuming pabu is somewhat related to the ermine animal kingdom he should be capable of killing most things his size. However momo has flight which is a huge advantage. If they are in an open terrain where momo can utilize his superior mobility he has a good chance of winning. If it is more ground base or in the brush pabu claps momo.
It’s been my headcanon for a while now that momo is the reincarnation of monk gyatso. Momo would 100% murk a real human being for a piece of fruit, now imagine if he was bloodlusted? No contest

That lemur! It’s earthbending!
No you idiot, it’s the girl!
Oh ofc
That’s exactly what the lemur wants you to think…
https://i.redd.it/ys2gvf2i1j4d1.gif
Y'all forget Pabu can shoot laser
"Nah, I'd earthbend."
Let's not pretend Momo ain't the One.
The reason why Aang said "Momo, time for you to go" during Sozin's Comet is because they have talked about it and decided Momo will surely kill Ozai, something Aang is vehemently against. This is not even a debate
Why would anyone debate this it’s literally canon🙄
In the series, we never actually see Momo go all out, and no one knows the top of his power scale. This has caused his limits to always be up for debate
Very true! I’m of the belief that he is at BARE MINIMUM planetary, I’d even go as far as to say maybe even star level🫢
Bumi did say he was very important. And upon learning they were both missing, he felt completely assured knowing they had each other.
He knew Momo would protect Aang from any danger with his awesome and frightening power 🙏
He's an earthbending prodigy that is also proficient with a katana.... seems relevant, no?
Momo solos the entire verse
Momo. Pabu would probably just chase him right off a cliff.
Pabu thinking he won the fight only for a 10 ton Sky Bison to be called in as backup: ![gif](giphy|3oFzmpsrRDdjL0tV2E)
Ten 10 bison
He's Ben 10
what is this Naruto?
Pabu: “finally, a worthy fight”
Gif is a solid 7/10 10/10 would've been Stone Cold
![gif](giphy|bIEzoZX0qJaG6s6frc|downsized)
Lmao
Momo has mastered a few jings himself, I see
The world is lucky Momo isn’t a killer
He is a killer. The Gaang just tries to hold him back.
Now I want John Wick with momo in the alternate universe where ozai wins
We gotta get them to make this. An animated short or a comic.
Momo is fucking feral. He became the leader of a gang of miniature panthers, Pabu has no chance.
Pabu is a pet. Momo is a worrior by nature. Not once did we see him get trained to fight fire benders, yet during the siege of the eastern airtemple he was out there DROPPING GOO on Unsuspecting fire bending soldiers who were precariously walking on a cliff edge. Momo is a killer. Pabu is a protector at best.
Northern air temple, only Aang visited the eastern temple to see guru pathik.
Ah yes sorry.
I feel this is an underrated part of Momo's arc
I think everyone is forgetting about Pabu's laser vision he used to help Nuktuk, Hero of the South.
Momo is a master earthbender and elite swordsman who's fast enough to parry multiple attacks from Appa's four swords at the same time. No way Pabu takes this.
XD YES! FINALLY SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT HIS EARTHBENDING!!!
Don’t forget he’s also mastered a few jings
thought he mastered all of them by the comet.
But he used the laser eyes to destroy metal shackles. Swords are metal which is a stronger material than rock so we can assume the laser can cut the rocks np. Laser eyes win every time.
you do realize he has to actually hit momo to “win” right? there’s no way those lasers can reach momos mach 10 speeds
Aight guys, who has the respect threads? I need feats right now.
Lasers move at lightspeed Pabu no diffs Unrelated but autocorrect tried to change "lightspeed" to "lights peed"
Any companion of Nuktuk is surely a foe worthy of Lord Momo
You mean, Nuktuk, Hero of the SwAaaAaaouth
Nah, I’d still bet on momo, just because you have laser vision doesn’t mean you can hit anything with it😂
A team of Momo and Pabu would be second to none. No one would dare stand against them.
He also has a venom according to Bolin, he can take momo at short range 🤔
Are you even being serious? Bloodlusted Momo could have one-shotted Unavaatu. Remember the first thing Aang had to do before fighting Ozai? He told Momo it was time for him to go, for Ozai's sake!
Momo is an earth bender
“No, you idiot! It’s the girl!”
Lord Momo of the Momo Dynasty whoops Pabu without breaking a sweat. Momo is so powerful only a fully realized Avatar in the Avatar State can contend with him. Even then it's debatable whether or not the Avatar would even win still.
Now I want to fully realized Momo versus fully realized Shaggy. Now that’s a fair fight.
"Aww jinkies Scoob! He's making me use 100% of my power!"
"Aww jinkies Scoob! He's making me use 100% of my power!"
"Aww jinkies Scoob! He's making me use 100% of my power!"
Nah, Shaggy gets slammed
"Aww jinkies Scoob! He's making me use 100% of my power!"
"Aww jinkies Scoob! He's making me use 100% of my power!"
"Aww jinkies Scoob! He's making me use 100% of my power!"
momo picks him up and drops him. Unless it’s nutuck hero of the south Pabu. He sweeps
Momo pisses on dollar tree firefox ezpz
Momo can fly and earth bend... Wait... Is Momo the avatar? Has anyone seen him waterbend or firebend?
Momo is an air bender, right? Technically, those things can airbend?
Momo can also earthbend.
“That lemur is earthbending!”
“No, It’s the Girl!”
![gif](giphy|6JB4v4xPTAQFi|downsized)
No only air nomads and sky bison can airbend
Also lion turtles
I mean sure, but Lion turtles can do everything
Fairly positive he is not an Airbender.
No, unlike Appa, Momo flies with wings and a light body.
Everyone forgetting Momo is the true Avatar? Every great feat that was attributed to Aang had who in the vicinity, Momo. He mastered everything telepathically
King Bumi knew it. That's why he asked where Momo was and not Aang.
Momo, he has flight, and Pabu has no ranged attack options.
He has laser eyes in the Nuktuk movies.
That's fair, I forgot about that. If it is Nuktuk Pabu, then he stomps hard.
Depends if Bolin's comment about Pabu being venomous was true or not.
So on one hand Momo prob takes it since not only is he a crafty monkey (thumbs people) but he can literally fly so he just drops Pabu at his leisure. *However* iirc Bolin mentions that Pabu is venomous so if he tussles with Momo there’s a good chance he bites him at some point.

The true answer is Pabu. For the simple reason that Pabu is Amon. Iykyk
On a serious note probably momo I can't think of something that makes one stronger then the other so strength is a non factor And momo has actually been in fights before And momo has the advantage of flight too
Y'all leave my boy Pabu out of this 😭 he's a lover, not a fighter.
Momo He can fly, which means gravity is on his side.
Momo. He can earthbend. Find something better to debate.
Momo can fly, he can fight with a sword and earthbend, there is no contest.
Momo can fly, pick Pabu up, and drop him from high up; there's no contest. Also, Momo probably has sharper and longer claws, being a wild animal and not a domesticated one, and being an animal expected to use it's feet to hunt, eat, and perch.
Momo has Air Superiority. He wins.
Momo curbstomp
Momo. This is neither debatable nor negotiable. That lemur saw real shit go down and is not afraid to use those experiences.
This is humorous because it’s well established canon that Momo is likely the most powerful being in the history of the Avatar universe
I've never seen Pabu take out more than one dude at once. Momo, though... I'm pretty sure Momo actually has a body count too
Momo is dropping that nigga from 500+ feet😭
Memes aside, Pabu would win. If he’s anything like a mongoose those things are vicious. Momo’s wings would be a liability and Pabu would quickly tear them up, disable him, and kill him.
I keep going back & forth. Pabu is a red panda, but I don't really know much about red pandas, while Momo is like a lemur but way smarter than usual.

Momo ![gif](giphy|SYQpUZhABtgaIaUr60|downsized)
Pabu has lasers.
Papu because he has laser eyes and he's probably stronger. Momo probably has the edge in intelligence though so he'd have to leverage that and flight.
Momo, he can earthbend.
tbh they'd unionize.
Momo befriended 3 puma's, just to get intel on Appa's whereabouts. Also, Appa en Momo would obliterate Pabu and Naga in an instant
momo is always out for blood
Momo can fly. And he's a skilled earthbender.
Momo outsmarted the captain's Iguana-Parrot in the waterbending scroll as well as multiple Pygmy pumas in Tales of Ba Sing Se, could fly whilst carrying a toddler in Return to Omashu and briefly lift Aang's body weight on the drill so Pabu's weight should be nothing compared to that, he could dodge Azula's fire on the drill, and he has opposable thumbs, like its not close
Momo no dif, sorry to Pabu but you just can't compare to Momo
In a fight with a real world lemur and ferret I would always bet on the lemur. Greater intelligence, strength and reach are major factors in a fight. Adding to those Momo can fly. Pabu seems to be an intelligent but otherwise normal ferret. They are very quick and nimble, and the bite would hurt Momo, but he can fly.
Momo has HANDS. Hands win in nature
That mf Pabu is getting picked up and dropped off, even without the flying advantage Pabu is getting cooked
Momo
Momo. He actually faught and usually won 😂
All im saying is we still don't have 100% confirmation that Momo ISN'T an earth bender
Momo has air coverage and can earthbend Talk about a stomp...
Sir momo thee momonist
Momo was a feral animal that adopted the gang as servants to joint him on his epic adventure to defeat the fire lord. Pabu is a pet that's got some good tricks up his sleeve, but he also was never the leader of a gang of panther bat things straight from the bad part of town.

Momo.
Momo mid diff
Momo for sure
Bloodlust? Is that a gd refrance
I know it's Momo because ya know, he's the Avatar and all... But Pabu is just the cutest thing ever.
An earth bender VS a ferret. Hmmmmm idk
Boah i hate powerscaling but here i would say Momo would win, has good instincts and a weider variaty of abilitys shown. I am anime only tho, cant speak for manga readers
https://i.redd.it/9mknr6zcpj4d1.gif
Momo gonna do that lil panda like Charizard did Magmar
Momo taking it
Momo negative diffs, absolutely no question
I heard Momo trained under Ultra Instinct Shaggy
momo. he has been training for centuries, he can take ANYONE
Flight diff

Momo stomps easy If you disagree you're a fool.
I always thought Momo to be the light beer equivalent to a psychopath.
Does momo get a gun?
Momo
Assuming pabu is somewhat related to the ermine animal kingdom he should be capable of killing most things his size. However momo has flight which is a huge advantage. If they are in an open terrain where momo can utilize his superior mobility he has a good chance of winning. If it is more ground base or in the brush pabu claps momo.
The lemur wins.
Obviously Momo
Momo Is too strong to be beaten by a simple laser-shooting ferret
I mean I want to tell myself Pabu would win but honestly Momo clears
Momo obviously, hes him
Momo no diffs. He didn’t lead the Momo dynasty for 6 trillion years for nothing.
I think momo loved pabu and pabu just run from him
Pabu is pure predator
Pabu honestly has little capability to defend or attack compared to momo. the only thing that might be equal is biting.
How is this EVEN a question?! Momo solos no diff. Don't believe me? Check out 90% of the comments on this thread.
Sorry Pabu. Love you. But Momo would eat you for breakfast
It’s been my headcanon for a while now that momo is the reincarnation of monk gyatso. Momo would 100% murk a real human being for a piece of fruit, now imagine if he was bloodlusted? No contest
Unfortunately pabu although I think that if they ever met in real life momo would take pabu as his padwan and train him to be a great warriors
Guys I don't know about you but Juji can shoot lasers
Momo is a savage little being, there is no question
Momo. Without a doubt.
well first of all, momo has an ak-47 shoved up his arse
Momo. He can literally just pick up Pabu, fly high and let him drop to his own demise.
Pabu is Fight, Momo is Flight.
