CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

It is easy to see Magikarp as nothing more than a small Pokémon swept along by the current. Its reputation for weakness invites people to underestimate it, as though its future amounted only to its present difficulties. Yet it can evolve into Gyarados. This transformation casts its beginnings in a different light: behind the creature that barely attracts notice lies a far more impressive possibility, still invisible at first glance.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

Magikarp swsh10.5-021's first attack adds as many Magikarp from the deck to the hand as desired. Raging Fin starts at 10 damage and gains 30 for each Magikarp or Gyarados in the discard pile. N-DESIGN Inc. illustrated this card, whose second attack checks the discard pile rather than Pokémon newly put in hand.
