    A lot of people hate magikarps but why? Did you know magikarps can learn bounce in a move tutor?

    I never really hated magikarps, even when I was a kid. I always knew if you get one early in a game it will benefit you. And no I did not know it could learn bounce from a move tutor :D thanks for the tip!

    I don't know or heard of anyone who hates Magikarp. So I don't know where you're getting that from.
    They might be weak, but like GlitchCity said before me they can benefit you in the long run and they're so nostalgic. :)

    I don't hate Magikarp, but they annoy the hell out of me. I spend about two hours in-game training one to get a Gyradose, usually at the suffering of my other Pokemon. However, the end result is always the same, an immense feeling of accomplishment, a relief to my headache, and a nice Gyradose ^.^

    For the reason, I'm annoyed with Magikarps since almost all my catches are that, and I'm expecting my catch to be a Feebas...

    And I hate Gyrados, freakin' hell yeah. Despite the great stats and moves, I never actaully used one.

    Yes, they can only learn bounce in HG/SS versions. I don't hate magikarp, but Its voice does gets annoying and it flops way too fast. lol :p

    Oh come on. You can't expect an awesome Gyarados to just fall from the sky, you've got to work for it. Magikarp is awesome.

    Magikarp can be annoying at times, but I have never hated it. Besides, it evolves into one of my favorite Pokemon, Gyrarados. =)

    I didn't know that, but I'm not surprised. I have a hard time imagining that Magikarp can Bounce high enough to inflict damage. Oh well.

    I don't hate Magikarp at all. It's there for lulz (those trainers that use 6 Magikarps are annoying, though), and it evolves into Gyarados, which I love. I'm actually quite fond of that giant... water snake thing.

    I like Magikarps :)
    They evolve into Gyarados and it's really silly in a cute way.
    Although yes, the fishermen that have nothing but Magikarp are a pain.

    Uhh...i don't hate them...

    I just wish they weren't in every game, right at the start. Make old rods catch Finneon or something (i hate goldeens, who're like magikarp without a decent Evo)

    Okay, after I get it to learn Bounce, then what?

    Magikarps are annoying when I have to fight them for EXP, other than that I don't think I have anny feelings for them

    I love Magikarp!

    It ends up being a very rewarding pokemon, they're easy to level up to 20 for Gyarados.

    Who cares about Bounce?
    Flail is where Magi's real power is at! 8D

    I love that noob pwning fish, and not because it evolves into Poopados. :3
