Pokémon’s Official Magikarp Song Is A Tribute To Uselessness
In 2014 Slowpoke got a reggae song about how slow and tasty it is. Now The Pokémon Company has released “I Love Magikarp,” a song about how being almost completely useless doesn’t make you any less adored.
Or at least that’s what the translation over at Kantopia says. it says. A young boy sings of how Koiking (Magikarp’s Japanese name) just kinda sits there and flops about, over mountains and even in battle. How Magikarp is everywhere, even in puddles. How one day, a long time from now, Magikarp will evolve into Gyrados, so he’s leveling a team of six. And how Magikarp sometimes just gets carried off by birds, because Magikarp.
In the end it’s all about love, despite the floppy fish Pokémon’s obvious flaws. It’s the sort of love all of us should give and receive, especially if we eventually evolve into Gyrados.
Hey everyone, I'm Jonathan but people will know me as Jon... I enjoy hiking and exploring the outside world as well as getting to see fantastic views. It can bring you to the most beautiful places on earth and into contact with amazing plants and wildlife and can be done all year round which is why I enjoy it so much despite it being challenging sometimes due to the weather - it has allowed me to meet a lot of new people and experience things I wouldn't have before. I also find it relaxing and interesting.
I also really enjoy blogging and sharing my experiences with similar people. Hopefully you will read mine.
My company Adventures Gate displays my other hobby - gaming! I love collecting items to do with gaming and playing in general. I guess I am a bit of a geek when it comes to this. Adventures Gate now offer free postage options when you spend more than £20 (there may be a small additional charge for larger items). That`s free 1st class post in the UK and free airmail to Europe.
