There is an unwanted ripple/wave in all of my game videos after I work on them in fcpx. How can I get rid of it

Sorry, but you definitely scaled it up.

As Tom said, your camera does not shoot higher than 1080p, but the clip you posted is 4K.

We are not talking about frame rate, we are talking about frame size.

Besides, I wonder if the original was recorded on camera in an interlaced format; deinterlacing and then scaling up is not likely to produce great results.

Would it be possible to post a short clip in its original format right off the camera?

Could you post something that illustrates what you’re talking about? What are the media specs? What are the project properties?

Can you upload it to WeTransfer. Send it to yourself and post the link here.

What camera shot this? What are your project properties?

The camera doesn’t shoot 4K. Are you scaling it up? That’s not a good idea. Please upload something we can see.
