It is said that in the Batverse, Batman possesses an IQ of at least 180.

The criticism that Batman didn't understand basic Spanish in The Batman (2022) stems from a misunderstanding of the film's plot. In the movie, Batman correctly translates "El Rata Alada" to "Rat with Wings." The key twist involves the Riddler using incorrect Spanish not as an error but as a deliberate clue leading Batman to a specific URL, playing into the Riddler's game of misleading and manipulating. Therefore, this detail doesn't reflect Batman's intelligence or linguistic skills but showcases his ability to follow and interpret complex clues laid out by his adversaries. Suggesting that Batman's intelligence is as low as 150 based on this misunderstanding undervalues his demonstrated analytical prowess and problem-solving abilities throughout the film, which suggest a much higher cognitive capability, more reasonably around 170.

Just because he doesn't know Spanish doesn't mean he's not smart. Intelligence is about more than just knowing languages; it's about how he solves problems and thinks through challenges in the movie.
