A feeble, pitiful imbecile of a Pokémon that is nonetheless very hardy. Unperturbed by turbid water, it can be found living in all sorts of places.
Famous for being very unreliable. It can be found swimming in seas, lakes, rivers, and shallow puddles.
Thanks to their strong hold on life, dirty water doesn’t bother them at all. They live in waters all over the world!
In the distant past, they were fairly strong, but they have become gradually weaker over time.
Its reckless leaps make it easy pickings for predators. On the bright side, many Pokémon enjoy longer life spans, thanks to Magikarp.
Although weak and helpless, this Pokémon is incredibly fertile. They exist in such multitudes, you’ll soon grow tired of seeing them.
