How much is a Magikarp card worth?
It depends which one. We know the price of 45 Magikarp cards: here they are, dearest first. Each number is what that exact card actually sold for on average over the last seven days at Cardmarket, Europe's big card marketplace — prices are in euros because that is how it trades.
Two Magikarp cards can be worth wildly different amounts, and that is normal: they are different cards. Every set prints its own version, often at several rarities, and a rare version printed in small numbers can be worth a hundred times the common one. The code and number at the bottom of the card tell you which one you are holding.
The 7-day average is what the card actually traded at this week at Cardmarket. Read on 5 September 2026.
Our prices are for cards traded as they are at Cardmarket. Graded cards — the ones scored and sealed in a case by specialist companies — sell on a different market, and we do not measure that one.

Our catalogue also knows one more version of Magikarp with no price reading yet. It joins the list the day its price can be read.
There is also one Magikarp card we are leaving without a price. Cardmarket keeps it under a single entry shared with other cards, and the price sitting there never says which card it belongs to. It might be this one's. It might be a neighbour's. The day it gets an entry of its own, its price turns up here by itself.
What these cards have cost, day after day
We take every card's price down each day, and we keep all of it. Here is what that looks like for Magikarp cards.
Magikarp has 45 priced versions, and drawing every one of them would turn this into a page nobody can find anything in. The 5 dearest are here. The other 40 have no curve on this page, and their price for today is still in the table just above.
The decks that play it
We read tournament decklists one by one. When a deck plays a Magikarp card, it shows up here — matched on the exact code the player wrote on the list.
| Deck | Lists | Tournaments | Printing listed |

Where to find them
The most expensive Pokémon, ranked
You've just read a page about the game. We can do far more with one match.
Everything above is about the game in general. The thing we're really good at is one single match: yours. When a game ends, Pokémon TCG Live leaves you a log — the written record of everything that happened, turn by turn. Paste it here and we'll replay each of your decisions hundreds of times, then tell you which one actually cost you the game.
It's free and there's no account to make. Your log stays in your browser: your browser is what replays the game.
