Can You Beat Champion Leon With ONLY A Magikarp in Pokemon Sword and Shield?

Feb 27, 2020
This man here is called León and perhaps you didn't know it, but he is the undefeated

champion

of the French region. No one in the entire region has managed to defeat him, so of course you know what we have to do today. Let's see if we can

beat

champion

Leon using

only

a Magikarp. I'm Mike. Mike and I think we all know how horrible Magikarp is as a Pokémon in its evolution. Garros is amazing, but Magikarp himself, his base stats are terrible, he has good ones. Speed, although I will admit though, in

sword

and

shield

, Magikarp has a few things going for it that make me think it might actually be possible to

beat

Leon using just a Magikarp to begin with, for the first time Magikarp can learn the move.

Hydropump normally in the Pokémon games, Magikarp can

only

learn the flail and bounce, it's not really a great moveset, however, in

sword

and

shield

, Magikarp can learn the hydropump technical register, which for the first time gives a strong tight move to use now that it comes out. That base 15 special attack isn't going to do much damage, but if we level our Magikarp up to level 100 and lore and Eevee's special attack, we could do something with it, so this here is our little future. champion Macho Man Magic card now makes it easy for Eevee to fully train in HP and special attack to maximize his bulk and the power of his moves trapped in a decoy ball for that little aesthetic and he knows the move set, hydraulic pump tackle, bounce and splash just for fun.

Now we probably won't be using any moves other than the hydraulic pump, but they're there in case we need them for our first and hopefully only battle against Leon, we won't be using any items, so the macho man won't. We will have no items and we will not use anything in the battle, let's see how this goes, so as the battle begins, Leon sends his aegislash and I send Macho Man, the Magikarp. Now what happens with aegislash is that every time he faces them, it seems. like they always go for the first turn Kings shield, now the King shield, if you don't know, is a move like protect, which blocks damage for a turn and if you use a move that makes contact with the shield, it actually will reduce your attack. stat in two stages, so predicting that I went in guns blazing and immediately went for my Dynomax, now Dyna maxing this Magikarp actually gives me quite a few advantages, first of all, it turns my hydraulic pump into the Max Keizer move, which is much stronger than hydro.

Then when we use it, it also causes it to start raining on the battlefield, which is super cool because it increases the damage of my water-type moves a bit and also activates my magic carpet's ability, Quick Swim, which doubles my speed while it rains. so I choose the Max Keizer and predicted the aegislash correctly and went for the King shield. Now using the King shield reduces the amount of damage, but my geyser still went over a bit and I was lucky to get a critical hit. With that we eliminate the important rain in the field. My next turn was super simple.

I just went for another Max Keizer and knocked this aegislash out, so right now things aren't looking too bad, five down to go and we haven't had a drink. no damage yet but then things go wrong very quickly when Leon decides to send out the Pokémon that scares me a lot drag lightning now drag lightning is really annoying for Magikarp to fight here because it's a dragon type so naturally it's going to resist my Max Keizer moves on top of that, his dragon staff; He also knows Thunderbolt, which is super effective against my Magikarp. Now the Magikarp's defenses are already terrible, so giving me a super effective hit is not what we want to do, so I'm going for Max Keizer again.
It's my last turn to be able to use it and unfortunately, even though it's boosted by rain, it doesn't do enough damage to knock out the dragon poults, it lives and throws a Thunderbolt at me, but our male guy takes that Thunderbolt as such. He doesn't care and it only affects about 1/3 of our health because we're now trite Dynomaxes, but the fun wears off quickly and Magikarp is reduced to his tiny size and also reduced to 160 HP, which doesn't look good. For us, fortunately, although we can hit the hydraulic pump, the hydraulic pump only has eighty accuracy, so it can miss a lot and we removed the dragon surveys, so now it's two of his fallen Pokémon and one of the scariest Pokémon in your team for me.
However, our resources are also running out because the rain will not last forever for Leon's third Pokémon that he sends to Mr. rime which is another Pokémon that can easily cause me some problems once again it's like drag it knows that scary move Thunderbolt and this time we don't have Dynomax to help us survive this hit so I tell my Magikarp it better you hit him. hydraulic pump and our male Magikarp says I've got you and hits him, but he doesn't quite kill and Mr. the frost shoots out with lightning and unfortunately knocks out my magic harp, but we won't give up, we actually got quite far, so we'll try this again, but this time I'll allow my Magikarp to hold an item, there are a lot of them. of different items you could give Magikarp to help you, but for me I will choose the Evo Lite item.
Now in the game they say it's a mysterious evolutionary luck, that word is a disgusting lump when held by a Pokémon that can still evolve. both defense and special defense, so essentially when I give it to Magikarp I'll make it a little bulkier. I think combining this with Dynomax will make the tank hits very similar and hopefully survive some of those pesky ones. Thunderbolts, let's go back and fight Leone again, starting the second battle, we are going to follow exactly the same strategy, except this time we are a little bulkier. On my first turn, I use Dynomax Macho Man and turn him into a super macho man and us.
Go for the Max Keizer, though I noticed something. Aegislash does not use the king's shield. Max Keizer does a lot of damage and takes a 2 cut in the low yellow zone and of course rains us down, but this time Aegislash decided to attack me and goes for Shadow Ball, something I was really hoping didn't have to do with the Evo , since Macho Man is a pretty bulky guy and removes that damage right away, although we didn't take any aegislash damage last time, so we're being nice. However, we're off to a worse start, there's already one more Max Keizer and next up, once again, is the dreaded Drago and we can't shoot him yet, so we're going for Thunderbolt and again the macho man with that Evo light.
As if there had been no damage, we lowered the 281 HP, which is still above halfway. I can't believe I'm watching Magikarp take these super effective hits, but unfortunately the fun doesn't last forever. Macho Man heads back down. to the little Magikarp and we go down to 141 HP and also use the hydraulic pump again, which has a chance to fail again on the next turn. Macho Man matches the fire of a hydraulic pump and takes out the drag apples now or again. To mr. frost mr. Rhyne was the only reason I want to give the macho man the Evo so he can definitely survive another one of those Thunderbolts, so we went with a hydraulic pump and he actually knocks out Mr.
On the first hit, I didn't expect that at all. I thought we were about to get hit by lightning here and be in the low yellow zone or even the red zone, but we took it out and the macho man looks pretty right now with half Leon. Unfortunately, the team was defeated, although all good things must come to an end and the rain stops, so now the hydraulic pump will be a little weaker. He then sends a new Pokémon that we haven't seen from him yet, his Haxorus. Now Haxorus is another. of those types of dragons, so it will still resist our hydraulic pump, even if the hydraulic pump is resisted, it will do more damage than the bounce or the tackle because Magikarp is trained to have a higher special attack, so we opt for the hydraulic pump and it doesn't even look like it's going to be a two hit KO ooh we could be in trouble.
Haxorus, on the other hand, goes into a rage and again the macho man can take it, but we're not doing very well, we're down to 57 HP now and Another one of those outrages will definitely take us out, so I'm going to play a Hail Mary right here. I could go for a hydraulic pump again, but it looks like it won't be enough to take out the Haxorus, so instead, I'm going to bounce, we bounce. up in the sky and that furious Haxorus tries to hit us with indignation but fails the next turn, we go back down, we hit him with the rebound, it doesn't do much damage but it does paralyze him, which is what I expected now that there is a 25% chances that this Haxorus will be completely paralyzed and unable to do anything to us.
All we need is paralysis, please let him be completely paralyzed, but no Haxorus manages to strike us with indignation and end the battle for us now. I definitely think we can. We could have gotten a lot further in this battle if that Aegislash hadn't attacked us on the first turn of the battle, if he had done what he did last time and where he went for king shields and then we knocked him out the next turn , we would have had a lot more HP and we would definitely have been able to survive another attack from this Haxorus, so we probably could have knocked him out and gotten to his fifth Pokémon or maybe even defeated him, but unfortunately it wasn't meant to be that way now. attempt number three with Macho Man.
I might try going in there with just the Evo lights again, but I want to spice things up this time. I will allow myself to use items so I run to the market and pick up probably one of the most broken items of all time special attack X when used in battle will increase my special attack by two stages. I think that might be what we need to push ourselves and defeat Leon. I also want to make one more change. I'll be removing the Evo lights from this little Magikarp and this time I'll give him specs to choose from, so his special attacks will do even more damage, sure we'll be limited to using a single move, but since anyway, we're just using hydraulic pump .
I think the trade is worth it, so we jump into battle with Leon for the third time and on the first turn of the battle, instead of going for Dynomax right away, this time I use special attack X. We get lucky and Aegislash goes by King's shield once again, which gives us a free turn since we're not even attacking him now, this is where the fun begins. Then we go for Dynomax and we go for that Max Keizer, which is enough with the X. special attack to knock out Aegislash at full health in the defensive form of him, that's crazy.
I never thought I'd see the day when a Magikarp could do that and of course, as usual, Max Keizer prepares that rain sword to do even more damage with our Next comes out a water type attack that dragged lightning again, but This time he's not a threat to us at all because we're so strong that we take him out with a Max Keizer right away, which feels so good. The third goes out with the gentleman. rhymes and this is actually the first time we face it while we are with Dinah at max and because we are Dynomax this makes it extremely easy and once again we shoot mr.
The next rhyme says that Haxorus once again was the one who finished our last race and I got a little scared here, half of his team fell and now Magikarp finally reversed - it's a small cell, but we don't do it for pomp and with the choice specs with the rain with all those increases our hydraulic pump, he shot this baby and he is down, his next Pokémon is not left activated since I chose Score Bunny at the beginning of the game on the television, once again I resist the hydraulic pump , it seems that everything is yours.
The team likes to resist the hydraulic pump, but we are so strong that only one shoots the Intel Yan too and last but not least is the famous Allianz Charizard and you know the best thing about this Charizard is that it is weak into the water, so Leon keeps going, he's all. I'm excited because he's on his last Pokémon and Giganta maxes out her Charizard, but the male Magikarp doesn't care because we're going for the hydraulic pump and we miss, we miss, we miss and you want to know what this Charizard does, it applies to max overgrowth and one- shots Magikarp we are this close to winning and we lost because the hydraulic pump failed.
Remember how I told you at the beginning that if you missed the pumpkin, here we are in the most important parts of the battle and we lost because of that. I know what we do right after that battle: we go back there, we fight Leone again and we're a little unlucky with Aegislash because he attacks us right away, but we boost our special attack with that special X and we can basically knock him out. All of his team face Haxorus once again, we go for the hydraulic pump, but we fail again, an outrage kills us, so we try this a third time and you know what they say, third time's the charm.
I hope so anyway. We are using the exact same strategy once again and this time we managed to get to Leon's Charizard. Now at this point I'm sonervous that we are about to use the hydraulic pump again, but when we were in this position last time. time we lost and lost the battle, so I tell Magikarp not to use that hydraulic pump and please press. I'll let you evolve after this battle and something about saying that must excite Magikarp because he manages to hit the hydraulic pump on the Charizard and we take him out and just like that, the strongest trainer in the entire region is reduced to one of the weakest Pokémon in the entire region. all the times.
I think if you're really lucky and able to get a lot of critical hits. It is entirely possible to defeat Leon with just a Magikarp without any items. I think that if you get critical hits at the right time you will be able to defeat the Pokémon that give Magikarp some problems and you will be able to call yourself a Magikarp champion. without using a single item, although you have to be very lucky to do so and as you can see from my last battles I am NOT that lucky, now we will use a rare candy on this guy and even though he is leveled.100 thanks to a change in the sword and the shield, can evolve.
I think he earned it after becoming champion. Now the best part of all this is that after you become champion, when you start the game and look at the title screen. You will see your character standing there with a lone Magikarp which definitely makes this silly challenge worth it, so my friends, you now know that you can beat the strongest trainer in the entire gallery with just one Magikarp and I would definitely recommend trying it. It's a lot of fun to make this happen. If you enjoyed this video, you should probably check out some of my other weird Pokémon challenge videos.
