A feeble, pitiful imbecile of a Pokémon that is nonetheless very
hardy. Unperturbed by turbid water, it can be found living in all
sorts of places.

legends-arceus

This weak and pathetic Pokémon gets easily
pushed along rivers when there are strong currents.

shield

It is virtually worthless in terms of both power
and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic
Pokémon in the world.

found swimming in seas, lakes, rivers,
and shallow puddles.

lets-go-eevee

lets-go-pikachu

Thanks to their strong hold on life, dirty water
doesn’t bother them at all. They live in waters
all over the world!

ultra-moon

In the distant past, they were fairly strong, but
they have become gradually weaker over time.

ultra-sun

Its reckless leaps make it easy pickings for
predators. On the bright side, many Pokémon
enjoy longer life spans, thanks to Magikarp.

moon

Although weak and helpless, this Pokémon is
incredibly fertile. They exist in such multitudes,
you’ll soon grow tired of seeing them.

Magikarp is virtually useless in battle as it can only splash
around. As a result, it is considered to be weak. However,
it is actually a very hardy Pokémon that can survive in any
body of water no matter how polluted it is.

alpha-sapphire

capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted
scientists to undertake research into it.

the horribly weak descendants that exist today.

It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and
speed. It is the most weak and pathetic Pokémon
in the world.

weakest Pokémon. No one knows why

descendants that exist today.

leafgreen

It is virtually worthless in terms of both
power and speed. It is the most weak and
pathetic POKéMON in the world.

MAGIKARP deposited there by the flow.
