So for my fabulous magikarp collection I am not only looking for magikarp cards, but also all cards that have magikarp in it. However tracking down wich cards like that exist has proven to be kind of… challenging… So my question is, do any of you know of any cards with magikarp in it that are not in the picture here?
Indeed. Actual magikarp cards are easy enough to track down, and apart from the unikarp and the pokemon snap magikarp, I do believe I have all of them, apart from a few japanese variants of english ones I do have like the japanese shining magikarp, and the japanese reverse holo version of the skyridge magikarp wich seems almost non-existant.
For the actual magikarp cards, I’m going for all different editions in both japanese and english. Like I’ll also include trainer kit versions that are exactly the same apart from the set symbol, and all different promo versions like there were last year . For the non-magikarp cards that have magikarp in it, I’m only going for one of each art. Those are kind of “extra” and not the main part of the collection after all.
What a coincidence! Im doing the same thing with Magikarps, but mainly focus on english. Are you sure you have every copy up to the Unikarp and Snap? I can send pics of my collection to make sure, as I also wanna make sure im not missing any myself haha
I mentioned in one of my other posts wich ones I don’t have yet XD Unikarp and snap I don’t have, and the japanese fan club shining magikarp. Apart from that I believe I do have all, unless there are some cards I’m not aware of. Unikarp and snap I think are gonna be forever out of my price range though. My factory job won’t permit me such expensive dreams ;3;
Well thats what i was asking, to see if you do have all the ones besides the fan club, snap and unikarp lol. I dont see many adamant Karp collectors, so i just wanna verify if im also up to speed, ya know? Any trainer kits and such with the same art i put behind the ones i deem rarer or more valuable.
Looks complete to me also do you have 2015’s Mcdonalds promo? I think it was a Europe only one with the art from Ancient origins but a different holo pattern.
Is that the green backed or blue backed topsun card? I have both.
(I’ll probably post pictures of my full binder in the near future in my collection thread XD )
Its the blue back with no number. The 1ed no rarity for these cards. Do you have that? I have the others behind it. And im not sure about the McDonalds promo! Id have to check. See, its little promos like that im always unsure of haha. You have others, like the 2013 BW Gym Promo and such, right?
Yeah I have several copies of the Gym promo. And I have the regular blue and green back. Topsun cards are kinda hard to find though.
I also have this beauty XD
Oh and when I saw that “gold star” magikarp I almost spit out my drink XD
@stephneechan & @megacon
Here’s a list of all the unique Magikarp cards in English/Japanese. Normally I would have included all the other languages (Dutch, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Chinese, Russian, Polish) as well, but since you two only collect Japanese and English and I wasn’t really in the moot to make a full list anyway, I’ve sticked to English & Japanese. There are a total of 119 unique English + Japanese Magikarps available (or 125/131 if the Japanese EX Dragon and/or EX Deoxys sets has multiple codes):
English Shadowless 1st edition Thin Stamp (almost impossible to find for non-holos. I’ve only seen 4 Wartortles, 2 Charmanders, a Squirtle and a Rattata so far. Still looking for a Pikachu myself…)
Good! I have all of em. Except for that Matchprint one. I didnt know Karp was in that set. You know of anyone with the Matchprint cards? I know you have the pikachu one lol
Rusty / @thecharizardauthorty (You could contact him through his ebay from the article I linked) had the complete set and has at least one of the two Magikarps. Be willing to pay a pretty high price however, considering only two exist in the world.
