With that being said, I think you should buy one today!

[–]da1hobo 20 points21 points ago

That dude selling Magikarps has really stepped up his marketing game.

[–]mkunzel 106 points107 points ago

There's a battle strategy that uses Magikarp. It's called the Magikarp sweep. Pretty nifty.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-PArgnvqQ4

[–]abelcc 15 points16 points ago

They use magikarp for the lulz, but any pokemon which can use flail works.

[–]Scrayton 28 points29 points ago

Rain > double speed > flail twice before it can kill you.

[–]abelcc 8 points9 points ago

Magikarp used a splash before being hit, his sash activates and he proceeds to 1hko everything with flail.

But anything with trick room and flail will work, no? You use that instead of a splash/whatever before being hit. Not sure of this.

Anyways other pokemons like Feebas have double speed and flail.

[–]Jellyroll_Jr 9 points10 points ago

It's the fact that magikarp is considered useless.

[–]CommunityCollegiate 6 points7 points ago

But it is a one-trick pony. We get the joke, but pretty much any competitive team has somebody with priority moves. Also, It would be kind of a strange set-up because Drizzle/Swift Swim is not allowed, so you'd have to predict and/or waste a turn using Rain Dance to even take "advantage" of Magikarp's ability.

[–]Jellyroll_Jr -1 points0 points ago

Don't down vote him! He makes a completely legitimate point.

[–]Vicktaru 1 point2 points ago

Trick room and flail only really works if you assume that none of your opponents Pokémon are really slow as well. I think double speed/flail is more reliable.

[–]AButtTuba 16 points17 points ago

Less of a strategy, more of a way to make people punch their screens.

[–]turchx 17 points18 points ago

What kind of dick uses legendaries in a PvP battle anyway? Let alone hacked shinies.

[–]peteisadrunkprophet 19 points20 points ago

Hacked shinies that just got their asses raped. By a magikarp

[–]AButtTuba 2 points3 points ago

Legendaries are good and all, but in my experience, they won't stand a chance against a well-balanced team with relatively high stats.

[–]Thorvalde 1 point2 points ago

Well that is a strategy as they can't then play anymore.

[–]ClassyMe 40 points41 points ago

Honestly that's not a legitimate strategy. It's gimmicky and the only reason it worked in this video is because the guy's opponent was absolutely horrible. It's so easily countered by, quite honestly, basic basic strategy. usually have entry hazards, this would have broken the focus sash and ruined it. Having any sort of pokemon with a priority attack too. It's just a bad strategy...

Okay inner pokemon nerd rage satiated.

[–]Ishaiah 4 points5 points ago

I'll bet my perfect full 31 IV, EV'd shiny Magikarp will flail the crap out of your non -RNG'd shit random legendary's.

[–]ClassyMe 2 points3 points ago

IVs and EVs dont come into it. If you're trying to do this strategy it can be so easily countered.

[–]CommunityCollegiate 1 point2 points ago

Yeah it's going to be tough with what you said earlier, like entry hazards and priority moves. There's countless other ways to stop this, such as Ninetales, Pokemon with Cloud Nine as an ability, ghost types...

For such an idiotic strategy, he should have just given the 'Karp a choice scarf... or possibly a better Pokemon choice scarf.

[–]mkunzel 0 points1 point ago

I understand but if I had posted the truth it'd be like telling everyone santa isn't real. They want to believe.

[–]TheBanjoNerd 0 points1 point ago

In the description he said that it was a 100% gimmick team, designed to fuck with inexperienced players.

[–]MutatedGamer 3 points4 points ago

I don't know that much about Pokemon, can you explain how that works?

[–]Kegplant 6 points7 points ago

He uses his first Pokemon to hold him off while he lays down a few moves that will make it so when the opponent brings in his other Pokemon, it will do damage.

The Magikarp has an item that limits it so it will live with 1 HP instead of dying on that first attack.

Magikarp also has a move that will do insane amounts of damage if he is at 1 HP. It appears his speed is maxed too.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]Infinitely_Bored 3 points4 points ago

The video is from Black & White.

[–]deadly990 1 point2 points ago

it only works against sets of pokemon that don't have priority moves or a lead that puts stealth rock, spikes, or toxic spikes on the field.

[–]neagrosk 1 point2 points ago

Now just in case you're wondering how to counter this strategy, you just need anyone with a priority attack (such as quick attack) or something that changes the weather into sandstorm (so you can do 1 damage to the magikarp and kill it)

Play leaf green or fire red. They are remakes of the original and very fun.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]Kegplant 2 points3 points ago

Warning: You will not be able to stop playing.

[–]Beanboy112 4 points5 points ago

No problem :) Also some other ones that are fun IMO are Heart Gold/Soul Silver and Ruby/Saphire/Emerald.

[–]Sirandrew56 15 points16 points ago

Smart suggestions. I know a lot of people say to start with the originals but they have not aged well at all. The more modern games have some seriously nice polish.

[–]Beanboy112 5 points6 points ago

That's what I was thinking. The older games are nice but not very beginner friendly and the remakes are much easier to look at.

[–]Kegplant 2 points3 points ago

I replayed the HG after beating the old ones as a kid.

I can't believe how much more user friendly it is. As a kid I remember spending a couple hours trying to do basic tasks.

[–]Beanboy112 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, but also games in general take a lot longer when your a kid.

[–]ZeMoose 1 point2 points ago

How are Black and White?

[–]SerCuddles 12 points13 points ago

Okay, some people don't like Black and White because of some certain pokemon designs, and I get that. Trubbish is an abomination.

But hear me out: Black and White is pokemon evolved.

It's a new introduction to the world, bringing back the feeling of discovery that gamers had in Red and Blue due to the absence of familiar faces, and an introduction to a style of pokemon game that will hopefully prevail: Story Based Pokemon Games.

For the first time in the series, Black and White make the story something you actually care about. For once, the story is a bigger motivator than the "glory" of beating the elite four. Unlike other pokemon games, I actually felt fulfilled upon finishing the story and seeing the credits roll (and believe me when I say that those credits could be the single greatest event in Pokemon history).

I know some people hate it when people bring this up, citing Famitsu as a biased reviewer, but Pokemon Black and White Versions are the first in the series to receive a perfect 40/40 and one of only 19 games to receive the honor.

TL;DR Yes Trubbish and the Ice Cream pokemon suck, but they don't stop Black and White from being one of the best Pokemon games out there (if not the best.)

inb4 people discrediting the Famitsu score because of Bayonetta, Kid Icarus, and Skyrim.

P.S. yes I know my sentence organization sucks.

[–]Sharrakor 4 points5 points ago

You know, people always rag on Trubbish, but is it really that bad? Have you forgotten some earlier Pokemon?

Grimer is a fucking puddle of sludge. What does that puddle of sludge evolve into? A bigger puddle of sludge.

Voltorb looks like a Poke Ball. Okay, kind of clever, no problem there. But the evolution? A motherfucking upside down Poke Ball?

There's others, but eventually I'll devolve into nitpicking. It don't matter. None of this matters.

[–]SerCuddles 1 point2 points ago

You. Thank you. I forgot to mention Grimer.

And on that note: People insulting the Chandelier pokemon. How is it any worse than Magnemite and Magneton?

[–]Grizdango 2 points3 points ago

The pokémon animations and things like having a "sleep animation" really make it feel more involved too. Spent 3 days playing through black and went back on leaf green, felt like I was fighting cardboard cut outs.

[–]Mr_Moosey 0 points1 point ago

Wait, woah there, stop. Animations? Like what? And didn't they already have animations?

[–]FAN_ROTOM_IS_SCARY 0 points1 point ago

In Crystal and every game Emerald+, pokémon had an animation when they left the pokéball. However, in BW, Pokémon are constantly animated throughout the battle, constantly moving, blinking and whatnot. If they're put to sleep, their eyes close and their movements become more subdued.

[–]Grizdango 1 point2 points ago

They're constantly moving when idle, when they sleep their eyes close and they slump a bit. Some attacks make them animate too, some electric type pokemon have bits glow yellow when charging an attack and stuff. It's not comprehensive but makes it much better imo.

[–]Beanboy112 1 point2 points ago

They are fun but I still enjoyed the originals more. Definitely get B&W though if you are a pokemon fan.

[–]ZeekySantos 1 point2 points ago

Quick question, which ones feature magikarp? I too have never experienced Pokemon and want to first hand know what the (magikarp) suckage is all about.

[–]1l1k3bac0n 1 point2 points ago

All of them. In every game they're incredibly common when you fish (using different rods, even the high end ones).

[–]FAN_ROTOM_IS_SCARY 0 points1 point ago

Not Black and White, however (at least until you've beat the game).

[–]1l1k3bac0n 0 points1 point ago

Oh, I haven't played that region, my mistake. Do you think it's an improvement over the other games?

[–]FAN_ROTOM_IS_SCARY 0 points1 point ago

I do! There are some very nice new features in there. It's a shame they didn't manage to fit in some of the things from HGSS though :C

[–]1l1k3bac0n 0 points1 point ago

Oh, I didn't play HGSS either, haha, only the original Silver.

[–]FAN_ROTOM_IS_SCARY 0 points1 point ago

HGSS had some pretty cool features. You could get your pokémon to walk around with you (a la Pikachu in Yellow), and you could toggle running so you didn't have to hold down the B button, but those features weren't in BW because they were developed at the same time and some features from one didn't make it into the other.

[–]Beanboy112 0 points1 point ago

I'm pretty sure all of them have it except Black and White doesn't have it until the after-game IIRC. The reason it's so bad is because when you catch it, it only knows one move and that move does virtually nothing. The only other move it learns is flail which isn't a very good move and by then your just about to get Gyrados which is the only reason to catch a Magikarp. That's the exact opposite of what this info graph says and that's what makes it funny.

[–]Notexactlyserious 9 points10 points ago

If you don't have a gba or don't want to use emulators soul silver/heart gold on the DS were fantastic remakes of arguably the best generation (Gen 2).

Fire Red for gba (or on an emulator on your phone) is a great remake. I'd suggest playing on an emulator so you can take advantage of built in gameshark functionality. Not to cheat on the beginning of the game but to make leveling new teams and experimentation in the post game a lot quicker (who wants to spend 5 hours EV training and fighting the elite 4 on repeat x6 Pokemon just to try out that experimental team comp you're working on??)

And if you really want to get fresh, I heard the black/white games (On DS/DSi?) were totally redesigned from the ground up as a new adventure and were great games. I'm just partial to the old school designs of Gen 1 Gen 2.

Have fun man they're great games Edit: Clarity/Android Keyboard Errors.

[–]ZanderdanderSpenceri 3 points4 points ago

Nobody's too old to experience pokemon.

[–]32koala 0 points1 point ago

Depends on what Nintendo handhelds you have. Do you have a DS? A 3DS?

I recommend buying a DS Lite (really cheap now) and getting heart-gold or soul-silver. Or you could get Black or White. The first two are more old-school, the second two are totally new-school. And they're all for the DS.

[–]DantesS_P 1 point2 points ago

I would go with the other guys suggestions first Generation 3 has an enormous amount of polish. But you should also try Generation 4 (diamond/pearl/platinum) and Generation 5 (Black/White) They are both amazing and a lot of fun.

[–]hostergaard 0 points1 point ago

Well, they are all pretty much standalone games. But for me I will always prefer the magic of the first games.

[–]ed19 0 points1 point ago

I was like you, except less european (i.e. too old to have experienced pokemon)I tried to play it get into it recently and really didn't like it. I'd never played any pokemon games before.

I get pokemon red (i think) on a game boy emulator. The start was cool, when i was walking around pallet town. I really liked the way everything was introduced.

But it really quickly turned into a massive grind-fest. I felt like i was just constantly shuffling through the grass repeating the same battles over and over again. I didn't get much past the first gym before getting bored with it. I haven't picked up the game again since.

Just my opinion.

[–]enjolias -1 points0 points ago

Play the originals!! Millions of 90's kids/japanese people can't be wrong, right? Blue is the best

[–]wlfbck -2 points-1 points ago

[–]Sharrakor 9 points10 points ago

Fishing with a Super Rod in Platinum can attract Magikarp of any level. Even 100. Next highest would be Arceus. Creator of the Universe. Level 80.

[–]A_level_2_Magikarp 12 points13 points ago

As an actual Magikarp, I can confirm this.

Hey OP, stop calling shit like this infographics. This is a wall of text made in painter or photoshop. This has nothing to do with infographics, data or anything. This is stupid is what it is.

[–]hostergaard 2 points3 points ago

Then what do you suggest he call it? Infographic is the closest you come, info presented in a graphical manner.

[–]nvs397 0 points1 point ago

Okay, so every document is an info graphic then? Information + graphics. Not jpegs with slammed wall of text. Info graphics takes data and makes it meaningful in a presented manner. The idea being you don't even have to read in detail it to get a base understanding of the model presented. Info graphics compress data in a meaningful way. They highlight naunces. All this is, is just something you read from top to bottom. It's not an info-graphic. It's jpegs + text. Call it, i dunno, whatever you want. How 'bout a picture?
