I have some good news for all of you people who like playing Gyarados but
don't use him because of how bad Magikarp is. I recently got a Team Rocket
booster pack and it came with a new Magikarp. Lets look at the stats.


Name: Magikarp   HP: 30   Type: Water

1st attack: C Flop: Deals 10 damage

2nd attack: WWW Rapid Evolution: Search your deck for an Evolution card named
Gyarados or Dark Gyarados and put it on Magikarp. (This counts as evolving
Magikarp.) Shuffle your deck afterward.        

This card sucks on its own but with Rapid Evolution you can get Gyarados or
Dark Gyarados in to play quickly and then Magikarp wont be vulnerable. There
is a flaw, however. Magikarp is vulnerable to a Gust of Wind when you are
building him up so watch out for that. If you manage to avoid a Gust of Wind
then you should be okay. Well, that is what I have to say and this is the
Pokemonster signing off.

If you agree or disagree you can e-mail me at pokemonster2@aol.com

PS. Is it just me or does the Team Rocket expansion really lack HP for all of
the Pokemon?
