# Magikarp #29/181 — Team Up

## Summary

Magikarp from Team Up is a bulk common, but a cheerful one: the flop-to-Gyarados story keeps this fish loved by fans, and its coin-flip evolution attack is a gag built around that very arc. Illustrator sui has a following of their own, so a few collectors will pick up copies on purpose. A $0.58 modelled guide with 6 copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
