Magikarp, often called the Fish Pokemon, was first introduced in the original Pokemon Red and Blue games. While it starts as a weak Water-type, Magikarp famously evolves into the much more powerful Gyarados, completely changing its look.

Shiny Magikarp made its trading card game debut in the Pokemon TCG’s Neo Revelations set as Shining Magikarp, a basic Pokemon with 30 HP. Released in English in September 2001, Neo Revelations was the third set based on Pokemon Gold and Silver, and Shining Magikarp, along with Shining Gyarados, were the rarest cards in the expansion.
