  1. While Magikarp is weak it is somehow classified as God-tier along with Ratatta. I would never attempt it unless I had another copy of Sun.

  2. Well, in this game, the Z-powered Splash actually raises attack by 3 stages, which definitely made this more doable.

    1. Unless you have a Magikarp with great Atk and Spd it can be doable, unless your Magikarp is focused on very high Def and Sp.Def which would take even longer to beat.

      1. Magikarp doesn’t learn Flail until level 30, and even so, you’d need to make it to the Move Deleter so that it can forget Splash and Tackle.

        If this article is solely referring to beating the Elite Four, then yeah, that’s valid.

              1. This is the most unsuspected thing to happen in the Pokemon 20th Aniversary XD Magikarp’s revenge is one of a kind Lol XD

              2. Here’s the translation:

                “Pocket Monster Sun/Moon
                Got into the Hall of Fame with a single Koiking I fished.
                Tonight I’m thinking of eating sushi!”

              3. I once tried to beat a Pokémon game with a team of six Magikarps at level 99. The whole game was very easy with that team, but there was nothing I could do against ghost Pokémon.

              6. Should this disappoint me, or can this kind of thing be done in other pokemon games as well. Im just hoping this is not an indicator of the games difficulty.
