Magikarp falls under the category of an unloved Pokemon. Why, you may very well ask? I do not quite know. Although his movepool is quite small, it has pitful stats and it dosen't evolve until Level 20, Magikarp deserves more love. It is a carp, which is a type of fish. Fish are often looked at as a food, and without food we, the entire human population, would become extinct quite quickly. This is only touching on the subject. Magikarp is one of the most commonly found Pokemon in the sea. If there were no more Magikarp then the Pokemon in the sea would likely die, as they would lack prey. With the Water Types now gone, there would no longer be a balance. Now, you may ask yourself this question. What is the main role of Water Types? They handle Fire Types and inhabit the oceans of the Pokemon World. With Water Types gone, the Fire Types would be free to rule the land, being unprecedented. Grass Types would likely cease to exist due to this travesty. The world as we know it would soon be destroyed. I believe that Magikarp is essential to life as we know it.
