10,000 Magikarp versus one of every pokemon (including one poor magikarp)
All Pokemon are level 100
All Magikarp are holding weather balloon
All Pokemon capable of mega evolving do so upon release
who win?
>>24916825
They'll PP stall at least
721 pokemon multiplied by, let's say about 80 total PP between four attacking moves = 57680
The pokemon would win. They have enough PP to do so.
>>24916844
Not all of them are superior to Magikarp tho
>>24916825
It takes as many Magikarp as Shedinja has PP to beat it alone.
Are the non-magikarps allowed items? Anything with recycle and a leppa berry could solo all 10,000 by itself.
>>24916825
>one mon uses Gravity
>other uses Earthquake
would depend on the level difference between the Magikarp brigade and the other mons but it doesn't look good for the carps
>>24916837
>leppa berry
>recycle
>slack off
>any attack
>>24916880
Magikarp can learn Bounce.
That being said, if PP isn't an issue Brotom and Aegislash both with leftovers can tank and kill an infinite of karps.

>implying they're all from pokewalker or are shiny anniversary event karps
wew lads, you're giving the karps too much credit

Just for fun, I decided to calculate some shit:
Drifblim - Timid @ Leppa Berry
252 Def, 252 Spe, 4HP
- Recycle
- Stockpile
- Swallow
- Thunderbolt
Can tank an infinite amount of Magikarp (even ones carrrying Bounce with adamant and max EV). Can outspeed and can OHKO them.
>>24917420
How long till they struggle self destruct?
>>24917428
Never because Tbolt OHKO's and gets infinitely recycled.
>>24916825
If Kingdom Hearts II has taught me anything, it's that 1,000 unimportant enemies can be taken down by a single hot-blooded shonen protagonist.
The closest analog in pokemon would probably be Lucario. Since there are way stronger mons than Lucario, the results should be clear.
If its a multi battle, Discharge still hits everything.
>>24917420
Lets assume every pokemon uses a smogon approved set
>>24917388
Well I was just giving the theoretically quickest way but it also depends on what battle format.
Are all these Magikarp and Pokemon battling at the same time or are they only fighting 1v1? Or 2v2/3v3 for that matter
>>24917699
Okay. What's the Smogon approved Magikarp set?
>>24917795
Presumably Splash, Tackle, Bounce and Thrash
>>24918057
I don't think Magikarp learns Thrash. At some point you could have Hydro Pump on a Magikarp though.
What? All the electric types use Discharge and it's over.
These battles never make any sense. One of every Pokémon is WAYYYY too powerful of a force to just be drowned out by sheer numbers.
