Megakarp
 
Well i looked and to my shock i couldent see a topic on this???

Anyway as im sure a lot of you know the resort area in platinum has pokemon with level to rivel those of the mt silver ones in gen 2
but this is on a whole new level, and as far as i know the oly pokemon that can be caught that is at a higher base level than arceus. Using the super rod in the water in the resort area can if you are very lucky land you an amazing treat, a level 100 magikarp. I stumbled upon this today while playing, so have you ever had the fortune of finding the megakarp and why do you think ninetend would give one of the weekest pokemon the highest level of any wild pokemon ever.???

InfinIcy August 3rd, 2009 3:06 PM

I've never found it, but the highest I've found was 93. I'm not sure why they'd put that there except maybe to surprise a few people who thought the "Hidden Ruler" was some kind of legendary pokemon or something. O_o

TeirusuFX August 3rd, 2009 3:21 PM

Highest I've found was level 74, I gave up a long time after.

I-I-Incredible!

I've never known about the Megakarps! I must obtain one!

thegeneticway August 3rd, 2009 3:33 PM

At first I thought when they said "Ruler" I thought of an actual ruler or ruler-shaped pokemon and not ruler as in king/queen.


:X

I gave up on that

Ruphire August 3rd, 2009 3:34 PM

Really?

I caught one at level 80

Fenrir Reki August 3rd, 2009 4:06 PM

The highest lv magikarp I caught at the resort area was lv 87. I traded it away at the GTS shortly after. I havent caught a lv 100 magikarp yet but if I do, it will end up on the GTS. :D

Mines was found but I didn't catch at level 90


:t354:TG

Citrinin August 3rd, 2009 5:54 PM

Not at Lv100, but I did find one somewhere in the 90s. I laughed that that was the "Hidden Ruler" and didn't catch it. That was probably why they put it in: comedy value. XD;

midnightclub 324 August 3rd, 2009 6:21 PM

thats awesome i havent caught one at level 100 but if caught one in that was level 89!

Vyro August 3rd, 2009 6:37 PM

it really is cool isnt it

but seriously the magikarp in this area are insane they pass fully along the level spectrum from level 1 all the way to 100... WHY???

Eon-Rider August 4th, 2009 3:27 AM

My highest is only lv 70 and that was the first one I saw. I haven't bothered since then.

lolcats August 4th, 2009 4:42 AM

i never knew wild Pokemon got much stronger than the legendaries that you can catch at like level 70.

I know! He's awesome!


It's really funny if you baton pass a couple of swords dances to him, and then sweep.

Devilware August 4th, 2009 6:35 AM

To KO something with a Magikarp would be great :D

La Foudre August 4th, 2009 9:58 AM

I lol'd at the title.

I'm not up to that part in Platinum yet, so the highest level magikarp I've gotten is 10, I think.

jolteon. August 4th, 2009 10:00 AM

Haha, I've seen a Magikarp sweep before, and it was awesome. I don't remember all the details, but it was magikarp vs Kyogre (in the rain) so Magikarp's swift swim was in effect. Kyogre used Thunder and Magikarp endured the hit with a focus sash. Then Magikarp switched out to something else, which fainted, and then to Smeargle. Smeargle spored, substituted, and swords danced and baton passed to magikarp, and magikarp killed everything off with flail.

It was awesome. xD I want to use one in the battle tower but it would take too long to set up, plus I wouldn't have rain that lasted forever. D:



The highest level Magikarp I've caught from there was about level 90.

harig07 August 4th, 2009 10:34 AM

But if you were to evolve it into Gyara it would lose all its moves...

Mages4ever August 4th, 2009 10:46 AM

Move Tutor/Relearner?
That's how you could get the moves back.

Saud-Blaziken August 4th, 2009 10:49 AM

My cousin is lucky
he was fishing in the resort area and suddenly a shiny level 60 magikarp
so now he has a gyrados...

xJORDO94x August 4th, 2009 10:53 AM

The best would be to catch a level 99 and then train it to a level 100 gyaradous.

shining-Celebi August 4th, 2009 11:39 AM

WOW!
I need to try it!

And as an FYI you can catch lv 4 staravia at snowpoint lake, i believe.

Ayselipera August 4th, 2009 12:49 PM

Nahh the highest I ever saw was in its 50s or 60s.

I would advise watching TheKillerNacho's 83rd battle video on youtube. You will like what you see.
