Very true. 5e is the closest I've played so far and wizards are still beastly.

Beasty? I still like my future Fox Wizard. *hugs Fennekin, protecting it from being called names*

It's actually a compliment in this context - beastly as in nothing can defeat them. They usually have far better ability to do damage than fighters (at least in D&D).

Given the wide access of damage types, arcane powers from the beyond, the ability to summon and control mighty creatures, and the sheer amount of feats that a player can stack and min maxed to his heart's content, Wizards are Serious Business in any campaign. A good wizard can clean the floor with common encounters, and a Great wizard could just solo the game by themselves. They are THAT powerful! If you Delphfox can actually preform magic, then things could get very interesting for the party...though Ventus would probably have a heart attack because of it.

If I ever get to take part in a game of D&D, I definitely want my character to be a Wizard then.

So, if I may ask as an outsider, a rough equivalent being the I-Ching, which was as much a philosophical text as it was a supposed divination set based on understanding the mathematical basis of hexagramatic patterns?
Or did you have something else in mind?

Dunno if a Delphox can actualy perform real Magic - It would be awesome as hell if he could. It learns Mystical Fire, though with 0XP. The ability to look into the future by concentrating on the alight tip of his wand might turn our benefitial as well.

Very similar. Except instead of numerology, it uses the relationships between certain boulders and trees and puddles.
The front half of the book endeavors to show why this pattern matching works, relating it to a kind of divine geometry, though no Legendary Pokemon or beings are mentioned as the source of this divinity. It's just nature as a divinity Herself.
