Analysis

Splash is the crux of the set because, let's face it, if you wanted to actually do damage you would've picked a different Pokemon. With the given EV spread, Magikarp hits 18 Speed and outspeeds enough of the metagame to show off just how small its damage output is before promptly getting OHKOed. Bounce carries a paralysis chance, which works well with Bright Powder. Bright Powder is so your opponent misses all their attacks while slowly tearing their hair out which is funny because, hey, you're cooler than them. You, my friend, are using a Magikarp. Interestingly, this set sees little competitive use.

Analysis

Moves With the nerf of Explosion and Selfdestruct in Gen 5, Magikarp lost out in its main use as a sacrifice to switch in when the foe goes boom. However, it still hits a respectable 426 Speed with a Jolly nature and Choice Scarf attached, so you might be able to revenge kill a low-health Dragonite or something. Putting Sandstorm up would do exactly the same thing for all the damage you're dishing out, but let's work with what we have here. Set Details Focus Sash is good for making Flail work, especially to lead with. The other items are only mentioned because they are all just about as useful overall.
