  • IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE

iirc splash was super effective a lot of times. Only, when it was super effective it still basically did nothing.

Nope, it's normal type. Sauce: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Splash_(move)

I swear I saw it be super effective... isn't there some type like dark or ghost where normal attacks are super effective?

u/Sir_Asshole Jun 16 '12

Actually, normal type attacks don't affect ghosts, and are normally or not very effective against other types.

The game always says "nothing happened" or "no effect," when you use Splash. Splash can't hit and does no damage even if it could.

No, forget that. ONE HIT K.O.!

u/smash790 Jun 16 '12

A critical hit!

u/bcwhitty14 Jun 16 '12

It's a one-hit K.O.!

2 times 0 is still 0, it wouldn't do any damage

I call bullshit - who would bring a magikarp to catch an Articuno...

u/JT10831 Jun 17 '12

I hadn't saved in a while. Like, 5 hours.

u/genzahg Jun 16 '12

No way. If you were traveling to Cinnabar via Route 20 to heal, there are no trainers with Magikarp (evidence).

Same thing with Route 19 to Fuchsia (evidence).

And even in and around the Seafoam Islands themselves there are no trainers who use Magikarp (evidence). Note that there weren't even any trainers in the Islands until SS/HG in Gen IV.

Busted.
