Magikarp 22/83 · Generations

Magikarp, Generations #22

Magikarp is Pokédex #129, generation 1 (Kanto). Magikarp is a Basic Water Pokémon with 30 HP. The card lists Gyarados, Gyarados (#130) under evolves to.

Magikarp sits at 22/83 in Generations, position 22 of 117. Before it is 21 Krabby, and after it is 23 Gyarados. The set belongs to the XY series. It was released on February 22, 2016. The printed size is 83. This checklist is longer, at 117 cards. The listed rarity is Common.

The attack Epic Splash lists 30 damage. The cost is Water. Flip 2 coins. If either of them is tails, this attack does nothing. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today."

Magikarp (#129) has 44 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 39 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Magikarp 35/102 in Base (1999). Both list 30 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Common. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Miki Tanaka illustrated this one. 4 other cards of Magikarp list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Miki Tanaka. I count 192 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Generations set binder is where a full Generations set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Magikarp can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
