Red +3: In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today.
Yellow: Famous for being very unreliable. It can be found swimming in seas, lakes, rivers and shallow puddles.
Gold: An underpowered, pathetic POKéMON. It may jump high on rare occasions, but never more than seven feet.
Silver / SoulSilver: 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 POKéMON gets easily pushed along rivers when there are strong currents.
Ruby: MAGIKARP is a pathetic excuse for a POKéMON that is only capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted scientists to undertake research into it.
Sapphire: MAGIKARP is virtually useless in battle as it can only splash around. As a result, it is considered to be weak. However, it is actually a very hardy POKéMON that can survive in any body of water no matter how polluted it is.
Emerald: Its swimming muscles are weak, so it is easily washed away by currents. In places where water pools, you can see many MAGIKARP deposited there by the flow.
FireRed: It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic POKéMON in the world.
Diamond: It is said to be the world’s weakest Pokémon. No one knows why it has managed to survive.
Pearl: It is unable to swim against even slow-moving currents. It always splashes about for some reason.

Sun: Although weak and helpless, this Pokémon is incredibly fertile. They exist in such multitudes, you’ll soon grow tired of seeing them.
Moon: Its reckless leaps make it easy pickings for predators. On the bright side, many Pokémon enjoy longer life spans, thanks to Magikarp.
Ultra Sun: In the distant past, they were fairly strong, but they have become gradually weaker over time.
Ultra Moon: Thanks to their strong hold on life, dirty water doesn’t bother them at all. They live in waters all over the world!
