Trivia

Origin

Flail Around is similar to Flail, a move introduced in Generation II that Magikarp can learn. Ancestral Memory is possibly a reference to Magikarp's Pokédex entry from Pokémon Red and Blue, which states that Magikarp's ancestors were "somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today".
