Holy Sweet mother of Mewtwo! Okay, I'm not going to swear or say nasty
things. I will calmly explain why the only reason to use Magikarp is for
Gyarados.

Now, you say that 10 damage for one energy is about the best you can get.
Incorrect. Machop can do 20 for one fighting energy, and it has 50 HP, and
does not have to have two thirds of it's life gone to do the 20 damage! And
Machop is common! Magikarp is uncommon! Hitmonchan can do 20 for one energy
too! And Kabuto may be bad, it is a stage 1, but it is not as bad as
Magikarp! Because it can, say, make a machop do only 10 damage a turn,
giving enough time to evolve into Kabutops! And coming to the point, Staryu
can too! Staryu can do 20 for one water energy, also does not have to have
two thirds of it's life gone in order to do that 20 damage, has 40 HP,
weakness to electric, one retreat cost, and it's common too! It is
infinitely superior! The one and only reason to use Magikarp is to evolve it
into Gyarados. Bottom line, if you have Gyarados that you want to play, you
MUST put up with Magikarp. If you do not have/play Gyarados, USE STARYU
INSTEAD OF MAGIKARP!

...Okay, not so calm, but it was the calmest I could be in describing why
this is wrong. Thank you for reading my rant.
