Someone isn’t reading what I’m posting.
Sadge.
I said I’m not doing this and others are thinking I’d make a searchable question which I won’t because my question involves individual cleverness.
I also wasn’t referring to your state of matter thing.
I was actually wrong a bit I thought there was 4 states but there is 5 as I missed “Bose-Einstein condensates” that I take blame for.

its why was 6 afraid of 7 not why was 10

so neither are right
and 7 8 9 is wordplay, 7 ate 9 just removes what makes it funny
Also due to my friends irl pointing it out, I will not be accepting “3” as in answer due to the fact it was a number I didn’t realize also fit into the question.
… so your not accepting it because its not the original answer, despite it being right

But 10 doesn’t stand next to 7 like 6 does
The joke only really works with 6

No, you have to take into account the “before it” part.
I think the joke still makes sense if it’s ten and not six because if seven eats nine, then the numbers go 1234567810, and then seven ate ten, and so on
the 
part is Lucky explaining the joke like he thinks that most people just think it’s funny to have the sequence ‘789’ and getting that it’s a pun on eight/ate is Uniquely Clever

That is… both a stupid joke, as well as not having anything to do with being smart.
“like Eevee”
“others”
… really?
I think I’ve answered 1/3 of the questions so far just by googling
I think a key part why it is specifically 10 is the “before it”. As in something like right before his eyes, he saw 7 eating 9, so he’s afraid. And the sequence 789 occurs before 10. I’ve seen this or a similar riddle before. I remember thinking it was pretty clever when I was little. 
Why do you think I was born?
I’m here to fix it!
But I’m not smart I’m clever.
