-   -   4th Gen Biggest Magikarp Caught? [Plat. Resort Area] (https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=174522)

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*

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...

Whoo boy..

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...

Well, when I actually decide to make the userbars,
you can start giving the stats. Right now, it's kinda unnecessary :P

Kaseo April 12th, 2009 4:13 PM

Wootness max. I'm still in the lead, though I'd rather get the lvl 100 instead of a shiny

Red Gyarados ftw!!!11!!.

Level100 magikarp = fail.
You can't evolve it. You're stuck
with the AMAZING moves called
"Tackle, Flail" and.. *drumroll*
S-P-L-A-S-H!!!!!!

Kaseo April 12th, 2009 4:47 PM

But...Splash attack is amazing. That's why it has it's own super awesome flash video

My friend got a level 1 the first time he fished. He was "happy". After a day or two, he got all the way up to catching a level 78.

Oops, ok. But actually, If I do catch something prize-wothy, I'll put that out here until I can get screenies, mmk?

And lol at the "are you tall!?" bit. It's the funny.

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ April 12th, 2009 7:33 PM

I saw a level 70 something Magikarp and at first I though my game was extremely glitched until I went into my Pokemon guide book and it showed info about being able to catch a lv 100 magi, but Anyways is there only one level 100 magikarp or is there more then one?

YOU A LIE!
What level does it learn that!?

With four moves... it might even make it
into the exclusive Uber tier! :O!


Lt_Nite April 12th, 2009 9:03 PM

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 >_<

Åzurε April 13th, 2009 8:37 AM

Extra Extra!
 
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
