Pokémon Scarlet and Violet player shows Magikarp’s true strength by one-shotting raid boss
Magikarp is and has always been a weak Pokémon. The lovable Generation I Water-type Pokémon is useless in battle due to its limited move set of Splash, Tackle, and Flail. It does, however, evolve into the far more imposing Gyarados at Level 25.
But while that might be the case, a strategically-minded Scarlet and Violet player named Nommable123 turned Magikarp into an absolute beast in raids, as proven by one-shotting Samurott.
