Flavortext
| Black 2 | A Magikarp living for many years can leap a mountain using Splash. The move remains useless, though. |
| White 2 | |
| Black | |
| White | |
| Diamond | It is said to be the world's weakest Pokemon. No one knows why it has managed to survive. |
| Pearl | |
| Platinum | |
| HeartGold | An underpowered, pathetic Pokemon. It may jump high on rare occasions, but usually not more than seven feet. |
| SoulSilver | For no reason, it jumps and splashes about, making it easy for predators like PIDGEOTTO to catch it mid-jump. |
| Ruby | MAGIKARP is a pathetic excuse for a POKeMON that is only capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted scientists to undertake research into it. |
| Sapphire | |
| Emerald | |
| FireRed | It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic POKeMON in the world. |
| LeafGreen | In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today. |
| Gold | An underpowered, pathetic POKeMON. It may jump high on rare occasions, but never more than seven feet. |
| Silver | For no reason, it jumps and splashes about, making it easy for predators like PIDGEOTTO to catch it mid-jump. |
| Crystal | This weak and pathetic POKeMON gets easily pushed along rivers when there are strong currents. |
| Red | In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today. |
| Blue | |
| Yellow | Famous for being very unreliable. It can be found swimming in seas, lakes, rivers and shallow puddles. |
