The Magikarp Challenge™ [Platinum Resort Area]
 
I'm pretty sure this hasn't been done before, but if anyone's noticed,
talk to the guy in the swimming pool in the resort area (Platinum only, sorry)
He says the king of the pool is there or something like that.

Once you go fishing in the resort area water (the one with the bridge crossing over it and the tree
randomly in the middle of the pond), you can find various magikarp, level 1-100! :D

Thus, I've come to a challenge:
Make it on to the list by toppling off
other members' scores and win userbars!

My highest was 81 :]
but my game shut off and it didn't save..
so technically, it's still 67 >_>'

*Credits to Mooglizer for the idea below.
To qualify, you must have CAUGHT it and must
be sure of the level. No "I thinks" or anything
of the sort. Read below for more details.

TOP 3 NORMAL:

Mooglizer - Level 100!!!* (That Sucks!!!*)
KASEO - Level 99!!! (Perfect!!!)
PlatinumDawnFtw- Level 94! (Great!)

TOP 3 SHINY:

( )- Level __! ( )
( )- Level __! ( )
( )- Level __! ( )


How To Win A USERBAR:

There's two "tier" lists for this challenge.
"NORMAL" and "SHINY". To obtain a userbar

for the Normal rank, you must catch a magikarp
either level 99 or 100. The userbars will have a
phrase for each achievement, respectively.

For the Shiny rank, you have 4 chances of
winning a userbar. Catching a shiny by
fishing is an achievement worth celebrating itself,
so you get a userbar for, in a way, "Participation".
The level-specific challenges are much tougher.
You must catch a magikarp either level 90-99, 100,
or 1.

The rankings above depict the level scores by the fishers.
In no way does it convey the fact that Level 100 is the
best score to aim for. In fact, if anything, it is most
likely the worst...

* to claim your userbar, you must provide proof !!
photographic proof is the best, but you may
provide statistics of the magikarp for last resort.
Please try to send your magikarp to someone who can
take the picture before posting the statistics in this thread.
Thanks for your co-operation and taking
"The Magikarp Challenge™"

CURRENT USERBAR HOLDERS:

Mooglizer (#1, Lv.100)
Kaseo (#1, Lv.99)

*If you see anyone else with these
userbars that don't correspond with the
number, level, or members listed above,
please notify me! Thanks for reading!

PlatinumDawnFtw April 8th, 2009 5:00 PM

My highest was around level 84 I think.

:O -gasp-
One rare candy = Lv.85 Gyarados..


[offtopic]And btw, Nintendo hates Canada not America.
America always gets those events with those giant
pikachu balloons and parades and they have a
pokemon store and all this other stuff.
Canada got lucky to get one event (out of the 5000 America had)[/offtopic]


Explosion April 8th, 2009 5:21 PM

Mine was level seventy two

Gr. I thought it was a big catch when I saw the first Lv.66. And then I thoguht I was lucky when I caught the 67.. gahhh. Either way, I wish it were Feebas instead of Magikarp :D

That would make EVERYONE's dreams come true.

Tyrantrum April 8th, 2009 7:01 PM

I never caught one, but my mouth DROPPED when I saw this level sixty-something Magikarp. That was so unexpected, and I CRACKED up! XDDDD;

Zuckerspatz April 8th, 2009 7:44 PM

First time I fished I saw an 87 I think it was.
Didn't bother catching it.

Haza April 8th, 2009 7:54 PM

Never noticed it. Never needed it anyway, I caught mine at level 3 on rout 204 or something and it does just fine, still neat. Are you sure it goes to lv 100?

NDS525 April 8th, 2009 8:10 PM

My highest level was... 0!
Haven't tried it yet but that sounds cool!
Level 100 wow! Magikarp isn't worthless now!
You can catch a Pokemon with a level higher then the god of all Pokemon and it's Magikarp!
That's awesome!
:) :) :)

The CriminaL April 9th, 2009 5:07 AM

Mines was level 74...never found 100....

Silhouette April 9th, 2009 5:54 AM

Lol, yeah I've noticed a couple weeks ago. I caught two level 75's, and a 79. I nicknamed them Alphakarp, Omegakarp, and Uberkarp. Btw, I think they have the best dex entry in Platinum. XD

Honest April 9th, 2009 5:59 AM

There is just one thing. If you get a Lvl 100 Magikarp... can you evolve it? I think you need to get Lvl 99 or lower.

And, oh, I actually dont bother to get Magikarp, but thats cause I never heard of this xD

Akeraz April 9th, 2009 9:08 AM

Alright
-Rushes to the finish line with platinum-
Nah, I wouldn't rush platinum just for the chance to get a level 100 magikarp.
But the whole idea seems pretty cool.

Xer0 April 9th, 2009 9:18 AM

I haven't tried this yet, but I probably won't have to. I have a level 64 Gyarados that I'm happy with in my team as of now. ^_^

On second thought, maybe I'll try it for fun sometime. It would be rather humorous to reel in a level 100 Magikarp.

iReign April 9th, 2009 12:09 PM

My personal highest is 75, but I do hate it when you get a pretty high leveled Magikarp followed by a string of Magikarp that are in the 40s.

Mitchman April 9th, 2009 12:18 PM

Personal high is level 84. Now a proud owner of a level 87 Gyarados.

Zennerick April 9th, 2009 12:18 PM

The Almighty Magikarp
 
The highest level Magikarp I've ever caught was level 54ish.

How does one catch a wild level 100 Magikarp? :cer_eek:

Yeah that's annoying. After I caught my level 67, the rest were around 45 T-T

54? pretty low compared to the ones recorded here :P
I'M not 100% sure if it goes up to level 100, but I looked
around in the Plat. section of Serebii. At first, it seemed
unbelievable to me as well, but once I first caught that
66 (The first time I ever used a rod in platinum ;) ), it
became less dubious. Especially due to the fact that people
are making claims of level 80s+ O_O'

That would be awfully unfortunate if you caught a level 100 magikarp
and the rest you find are in the 20s. It'll be a strong pokemon, Lv.100!
But then again... it's a worthless magikarp with three moves.
Especially due to the fact that a perfect level 100 Gyarados is taunting you...

In actuality, I don't know how hard it is to catch a level 100. But it's still magikarp,
keep that it mind. The catch ratio is still the same, so I wouldn't be surprised
if someone caught it with a pokeball or a net ball on their first try....

Åzurε April 9th, 2009 6:59 PM

I made a topic akin to this one, but I guess it died.

anyway I've actually got a Lv.98 Magikarp! I was hoping for 99, or 100 just to say I did, but IMO not unimpressive. ^^

Oops didn't know..
At least it croaked before a new one was born. :P
Well that's a ":(" for you, but anyway.

Did you evolve it into a nice Lv.99 Gyarados?

Åzurε April 9th, 2009 8:02 PM

Not yet, and I'm not exactly sure why...
But it's fine about the topic. I am glad this came up afterward.

I'd like to see if anyone could come up with a legit shiny in the 90s, of course that would be exceedingly difficult. I'll try tomorrow, maybe.

Nitrous Oxide April 9th, 2009 8:04 PM

I got mine at level 69, my Gyarados is sitting at about 82 now.

Åzurε April 9th, 2009 8:09 PM

You could put the top 5 up on the first post and make a contest of it, waddya think?

Kaseo April 9th, 2009 8:56 PM

Lvl. 99! XD Lmao no lies. So lucky. Perhaps better than the lvl 100.

Beckie April 10th, 2009 8:25 AM

I found a Magikarp level 72 :]

Penumbra April 10th, 2009 12:12 PM

Added a Top 3 thanks to Mooglizer.
Should I make this into a kind of challenge?

Like reward a Level 100 Magikarp Userbar for your sig
to the person who catches one? I'm also thinking about
adding a top 3 for Shiny catches. This is EXTREMELY difficult
to catch a shiny by fishing (no chaining) let alone getting a level 99 or 100. I might
distribute Six kinds of userbars if the idea is accepted. And don't worry, I make
nice userbars. If you don't believe me, look at the one in my sig [Made both]
Anyway, the higher-ranked userbars might be animated, or normal
rankings will stay flat and the Shiny catchers will get a special animated one,
to reward there great capture ;P

For the Normal Rankings:
1 - Level 100 Magikarp: It's useless now... Marvelous catch!
2 - Level 99 Magikarp: Perfect to get a mighty Gyarados!... Awesome catch!

For the SHINY Ranking:
1 - Level 100 Shiny Magikarp: Useless, but shiny! UNBELIEVABLE!
2 - Level 90+ (99 is too difficult): Did your Super Rod break? LUCKY!
3 - Any Level Shiny: That must've been tough! RADICAL! (lmfao)
4 - Level 1 - Mama Gyarados ain't so happy.. THIEF!

of course, those are just rough texts I came up with. They'll most likely be shorter.
But yeah, I could seriously see some competition in the fishing world with some
nice userbar prizes ;P Anyway, it's just a random recommendation.
Now I'm off to try and catch a better magikarp!
*reels in a shiny*



PlatinumDawnFtw April 10th, 2009 4:39 PM

I was fishing a few hours ago and got a level 94 one! Nice level 95 gyarados....

The CriminaL April 10th, 2009 4:41 PM

Most of you are lucky, level 90 something Gyrados in a day! That's just bulldonkeysh*t!

Level... Well, Platinum freezes now, so I can't say. The highest I caught ever is lv. 19. Seen is lv. 21

Penumbra April 11th, 2009 12:11 PM

Um, yeah..
We're talking about the Magikarp
in the Resort Area.

If you're on the same page...
well...

Well, you won't receive anything yet.
No one voted if it was a good/bad idea yet :P

Also, DawnFtw, i'll put you on.

Btw, to any of you who are planning to lie,
there's not really a point since it's just a top magikarp list :P

Zuckerspatz April 11th, 2009 12:13 PM

Yeah, do the userbar thing.
'And you should make them have to give photo proof.

They could easily be hacked, though :L
That's a problem I'm trying to foresee and counter.
Especially with the shiny challenge...

Oh well, if people are that desperate to make it look legit
and be on the top list (and get one of my userbars! :D)
then I guess there's nothing I can do if they have photographic proof,
unless there's some way to check if it's been hacked or not and
then proving it... and not hacking that proof. >_>

Anyway, how bout they have to show proof if they want to
apply for a spot in the rankings? For exanple, if they claim
they caught a level 1 Shiny, they feel inclined to be
rewarded the userbar, so they ask for there place on the
top-list, and then show proof, otherwise just posting,
saying that you caught whatever, won't get you anything.

Sorry to the people who can't take a picture of it...
Try to send it to someone trusthworthy who can take a picture.

EDIT: Just beat my record (67)
I caught a 73! Still puny, but meh.

Åzurε April 11th, 2009 5:28 PM

awesome! I'll get fishing! and, would it be all right if i post stats,poffin likes, etc.? I can't get screens...

My contest status is getting sigged.

If not, then just list everything that's in the picutre
above, posted by (insert person I forgot). Try
to have it formatted the same way so it's easier
to match-up...

Anyway, I left my DS on when i went to the movies and
didn't save. So now my record dropped back to 67...
And I even caught a level 81 after it :(

Shinies are hard for fishing.
1) No Chaining
2) No Indication if it's shiny or not so you won't
know which magikarp not to reel in
3) basic 1/8000-something chance.
4) More buttons to press a.k.a
- whipping out the fishing rod
- pressing A at the right time
As opposed to walking to a
shiny patch of grass via P.Radar.

Grrr. I'll make the U.Bs extra nice for anyone
who manages to catch a shiny at the right level.


SkittyLover77 April 12th, 2009 8:32 AM

Ooh...Magikarp Lv. 100...that would be awesome if someone found one! 8D I can just imagine the whole scene...

"A wild MAGIKARP appeared!" Aww, just a Magika-- OMGWTFBBQ LV. 100!?! *dies*

XD I crack myself up sometimes. *shot*

Cool I like the userbar idea a lot. Highest I caught was 69 :( saw a 70 but critical hit it and KO'd it. I'm gonna do more searching tomorrow though!

Ginji April 12th, 2009 11:14 PM

The biggest I caught was lv.85 and I saw a lv.97 but for some reason I didn't catch it >_<

I am now offically the pround owner of the stupidest level 100 pokemon on earth... You got it, a freshly caught, unevolved, untrained Lv100 Magikarp! Heck yes!

...

...

...aw, crap. Unevolved? :P

No one cares if you fish for a strong magikarp.
they only care if you fishforastrongmagiakrpandbringprooftothisthread
thatyoucaughtitsoyoucouldwinmyawesomeuserbars.
_SIGH_

Anyway, great job mooglizer! I'll have to find the other person to replace your
previous position now. joyyyy. ^_^' If you have proof ready,
i'll be willing to start on the userbars (since, apparently, it's a good idea).

By the way, the user bars might come a bit late since I have other
stuff to do in the emulaton section.. But I'll try my best to multi-task.

EDIT: It's now officially called
"The Magikarp Challenge™"
The ™ is just for aesthetics ;P

Anyway, the post now details the
actual rules and how to obtain the userbars,
etc.

Also, I have a solution for people who are going to just
steal the userbars whence people wear them. I will add
some kind of number code to each userbar I hand out,
that way, they'll know if someone just copy-and-pasted it
off someone ;)

I have yet to figure out how to confirm if the Magikarp is
hacked or not, however...

I'm done the Level 99 one. It looks really epic,
but I don't know how to make it have a transparent background :S

Every time I upload it onto PC, the background turns white.

I don't have an Imageshack or anything like that.
Edit: when I hit Insert Image, it shows a box that says "webpage dialogue" but that's it. It's completely blank!

1) Go to Imageshack.us
2) Upload the file with "Browse..."
3) Check "Remove size resolution bar" and uncheck
"resize image?" or whatever
4) Copy one of the links and paste it in yor browser
5) the image should be surrounded my ad's. Right click it and press
"View Image"
6) Copy the URL and go back to PC and go to advanced post.
7) press the image icon (the mountains with the circle) and paste the link
you got from "View Image"

Also, i'm done level 99 and level 100. They're awfully nice :D
But I still don't know how to do a transparent background when uploading them..

let's hope I'm not doing it wrong. :D

*Ditto Transformed into Phoenix Wright!
Phoenix Wright used OBJECTION!*

1) This is for CATCHING a Magikarp
2) Completely irrelevant, since this is biggest
magiakrp ever CAUGHT, and it's a CHALLENGE,
not the sinnoh journal v2.
3) This isn't the place to post that.
4) Cheat battle?
5) This isn't the GTS section T_T
6) Cheat battle?

On a side note, Mooglizer and Kaseo, I'll give you the userbars
tomorrow. They're complete.. Is it okay if it's kind of Circled like
my Pokemon Saga: Umbra one (the borer)? I don't know how to do a
transparent background and having a plain white rectangle is hideous.

Kaseo April 13th, 2009 5:11 PM

Yup yup anything is fine with me

Sending it via PM to you and Mooglizer. You're lucky you're the first!
:D Your UB's will proudly sport a nice "01". Uploading them to imageshack..


EDIT: Userbars sent to the winners (Mooglizer, Kaseo!)
Congratiulations!

Kaseo April 13th, 2009 6:26 PM

Sweet action. Thanks so much. I'll try to figure out how to make transparency and than tell you

Feel free to comment/rate/compliment it or make suggestions. :D
Sorry for the no animation on the Normal userbars. Getting a shiny
is a great feat by PokeRadar. Now put that into Fishing. Even tougher.
Now put that into specific levels. near impossible. This is why I want
to truly reward the dedicated fishers the best way I can.
Animated userbars! But yeah, I hope the normal ranked ones are still
appreciated and liked
:D

Thanks for participating Kaseo and Mooglizer!

i caught a lvl 92 magikarp i thought it was pretty high but then i saw everyone elses so im fishing for a lvl 99 or even lvl 100

Åzurε April 13th, 2009 8:26 PM

Alright, I love it!

Thank you, Penumbra!

Thanks :P
The Userbar designer site and Paint program is all I need :)

I'm sorry for the ugly border and background. I don't know how to
make transparent background (yet... hopefully), so the box border
was the best solution. Even if I tried a rounded rectangle, the edges
would still be white, which is even uglier :X

I'll try to find a way to make a transparent background and I'll
re-send you it if I ever get the chance..

Also, if you think those are nice, just way for the shinies...
P.S: Should I keep the back-frame pokemon? (ie: Gyarados and the back magikarp?)
Is the slashed thing nice? any opinions or suggestions? This is the best time to do it
so I can change it before any body else wins an award :P

I said it was my friend because I don't own Platinum. I bolded it because I didn't want people thinking I have Platinum. =X

Yes, because you can get shot down for owning pokemon platinum!
Good idea ;)

Anyway, my friend is transparent-ifying the backgrounds (hopefully).
so let's be wishful that it turns out all right :D

pokerus34 April 16th, 2009 9:35 PM

What's a User Bar???

Well, you have a great idea in putting challenges... :)
I'll try it!

Still, I'm not yet at the resort... I had just started my game and in Jubilee City... (i recently bought my Platinum... I wish i had just ordered it)...

but i promise I'm gonna be there before you can say "Fried Magikarp" :)


P.S. = I think i would only catch a level 99... That sucks...

Kaseo April 16th, 2009 10:21 PM

Userbars are just small signatures that usually show you're a fan of something, but in this case, what kind of magikarp you caught for this contest.

And don't read my previous posts, there's nothin wrong with the lvl 99. It's awesome for an easy Gyarados, though I kept mine as magikarp.

I should have added "Winner" somewhere in there, but then the Magikarp/Gyarados
would be pushed to the far side and extend the ugly boundaries + the uglier white background. I heard you could use that Paint.NET program for transparent background,
but there's too many buttons O_O'

Also, someone make this thread alive and catch a shiny! :P

Giraffe July 10th, 2009 1:20 AM

Mine was Lv. 69 Lol

seeker July 10th, 2009 1:36 AM

Shiny And it's up for trade!! Level 69 (Don't ask how that happened but it did)
Shouldn't you ask for proof?? Seems just anyone could say 'Oooh eem effin Gee i caught a level 100 Shineee!1!!!1!!"
no?

Edit*

Didn't notice the photo proof thing!! xD
I will provide photos soon
Here they are

Sorry about the size eeep

Ayselipera July 10th, 2009 11:24 AM

I've tried so many times to catch a high level magikarp, but all I ever get is levels 50s.
Its kinda dissapointing..

Sweet Smoochum July 10th, 2009 3:52 PM

I caught one at level 80. It has horrible stats though unfortunately. It's still cool b/c if I evolve it I can trade it on wifi. ^_^

salmence33 July 10th, 2009 8:04 PM

I found a lv 87 and caught it
I've seen a level 97 but it fainted

Stan the man July 10th, 2009 8:09 PM
