God, yes. Either train it lots by putting it at the top of the list, and
then changing pokémon as your first action in every battle, or dump it in
the daycare centre until it reaches level 20. At which point it will evolve
into the supper-powerful Gyarados. A truly excellent and atrocious pokémon.

Well, At level 15 MagiKarp learns tackle... Then many sailors say that
MagiKarp does something many paople fear...
It evolves into the Dragon Gyarados and learns bite. Yes Gyarados on of the
most powerful Pokemon in the game. Mines at the same level as My Pikachu
and it has 147 hit points, They are both at level 40 and my pikachu has 90
hp
Phantom6 Phading out.
Canabals agree, A sandwhich just isn't a sandwhich without the tangy zip of
dave.

You know, it seemed pretty obvious to me when I first tried "splash"
with a magicarp that the evolved form must be something special. I was
NOT disappointed with my Gyrados, and he was one of the cornerstones
of the team I sent up against the Elite Four +1. Mine has learned a
set of water, poison, ice and dragon moves that provide a great amount
of versatility.

Not a thing except kill time. I just let magicarp fill in the first
slot on my list and brought up a more suitable pokemon for each
individual battle. The wait was worth it, though!

A Geodude trained to eight or nine levels above the others also provides
a great amount of versatility, Geodude kicks serious butt against
Electric Pokémon...he's definitely gonna be in my Elite Four team!

Magikarp is the worst Pokemon in the game. It eventually learns tackle, and
on lvl 20 evolves into Gyarados. Gyarados is one of the best Pokemon in the
game and definately worth training. Bit of an Ugly Duckling really...

I'm sure that was deliberate...a nice surprise for the persistent people
who refused to accept that Magikarp was s**t.
