# Magikarp #22/83 — Generations

## Summary

Magikarp is a bulk common from a set built around anniversary nostalgia, the sort of pull that fills a binder slot without anyone chasing it. The fish has a devoted following for its underdog arc into Gyarados, and Miki Tanaka's name adds a small completist angle. The modelled guide sits at $0.71, flat over 30 days on 25 copies traded, with 4,091 days of inventory sitting on the board; a CGC 10 brings $16, 22 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
