About
Kingambit Has Gained Strength from the Fallen is a catchphrase used in a series of parody videos and memes on TikTok depicting the Pokémon Kingambit as the formidable final opponent in an epic fight (usually from anime) thanks to his canonical ability Supreme Overlord, which buffs his attack in proportion to how many Pokémon have fainted before it comes into battle. These videos typically end with Kingambit appearing along with the Kingambit's signature text, "Kingambit has gained strength from the fallen!" over epic music, usually an original sound by Yod.[3]
Origin
Kingambit was introduced in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and has the signature ability Supreme Overlord. The ability gives it an attack buff of 10 percent for each Pokémon that faints before it enters battle, making it a formidable final opponent in a 6 vs. 6 Pokémon battle.[1]
