At this rate the next challenge is gonna be getting two spinda with the same spots, the patience and time required to do this is insane

love the magikarp jump references sprinkled throughout

Crazy it was a critical capture too, even the game went "yeah we're done here"

For anyone wondering, getting a level 100 shiny Magikarp would be a 1 in 81,960,000 chance.

Level 100. The pinnacle of power for Pokémon. Very few Pokémon ever reach this level. Magikarp just built different

Trying to get a Shiny of this Level 1 or Level 100 is probably the goldmine of Shiny Hunting, even more than trying to get a Shiny Feebas

Another thing I find odd is that the shiny Magikarps were level 42, 43 and 44! What a weird coincidence!

Lucy: Ive never played Platinum so imma just use my B2 Also Lucy: plays through the entirety of W2 to hunt for the karp.

I remember finding the lvl 99 Magikarp as a kid and got so excited to throw a rare candy and have a lvl 100 Gyarados 😂

“Level 100, the pinnacle of power for a Pokémon, most Pokémon never reach this level”

Candy hunting lvl 100 Magikarp with only 0.1% of her power makes her lvl 100 hunting boss, lovely artstyle

There's also the level 100 Regigigas in the Crown Tundra in Sword and Shield, so Magikarp and Gyarados aren't the only level 100 Pokémon that can be found.

Moral of the story: If you want a shiny, hunt for something rarer

This was one of my favorite post-game things I did in Platinum. The other of course being getting all the Villa furniture.

This gen was also the first one that allowed you to properly EV train Pokemon that were at level 100 instead of being restricted to vitamins only. Now you can make your Magikarp as powerful as can be!

Evie, you should stream your first time playing Platinum! Sure, you already know all the differences it has compared to the original DP, but the experience of actually having a good Pokédex and more options for a team feels so good! I played it for the first time last year, and it was the best Pokémon game I have played yet!

Love all of the magikarp jump pattern references

The fact that you caught it with a Critical Capture is great to see! Reminds me of my Shiny Ultra Moon Xurkitree.

7:40 After literal years and almost a decade, hunting in X/Y, any remote excitement for a shiny basculin is refreshing to see. Ive lost count how many shiny basculins Ive gotten going for a dratini (I finally gotten one after 8 years of initial hunt - on/off).

Reminds me of literally spinning in one spot trying to find a Kangaskhan in the safari zone.

I had no idea it was even possible until today that you could catch the best Pokemon ever in the wild at Lv.100.

I remember fishing for the magikarp in platinum after my first pull was level 92. I never actually knew if there was one I just assumed there had to be. I never ended up getting it but that level 92 ended up being the first Pokémon I leveled to 100 in any game (I did evolve it)

Fun fact: In sun and moon you can catch a level nine Gyarados at the garden. I was surprised when I first caught one.

2:46 I love the Magikarp Jump purple variant snuck in there!

Too bad that level 100 Magikarp wasn't golden. That'll be even sweeter than eating M&Ms on a sundae

You’ve become a nostalgia Chanel for me. You got me into this masochistic mess of a hobby, and I miss watching you during some of my first hunts.

Now you just have to get the Lv. 100 Magikarp shiny! ::::D

Absolutely adore your nicknames! Keep up the fun content!

I actually have this lv100 magikarp from the Resort Area in Platinum! Had no idea how rare it was at the time, there was just an npc nearby that mentioned it so I wanted to catch it. It's now Hyper Trained, and currently in my Shield version waiting for transfer to Scarlet later next week.

friendly reminder, pressure, hustle, and no guard make it such that there is a 50% chance that an encounter is at it's highest level making it a 1/200 chance for the sacred fish.

i love hunt videos sm, and this was different from just shiny hunt vids!!! loved this, cant wait for ur other stuff evie!

I love the different color karps scattered across the video it's such a funny touch

I loved the random magikarps from Magikarp jump in the background! Fun little Easter eggs!

Highest lvl pokemon I ever encountered in the wild was 245 via the Old Man Glitch. If the 2nd, 4th, or 6th characters in your custom name are ♀, then you have a 20% chance of encountering a 245 pokemon per each one you have. The other 2 pokemon on the encounter list will be 'M, which you never want. Highest lvl I've encountered without tailoring the name for the glitch was a 164 charmeleon when using my first name.

Watching this video as you get to the 790K mark! You are a great RU-vidr and I am excited to see you get to this point. I rewatched your videos on the history of shiny hunting and the Kalos games. It has given me a renewed interest in Kalos and trying the nuzlocke that I failed before.

Ooohhh, I can relate to this challenge. For a playthrough of Ultra Moon I wanted to catch the Volcarona you can get below its normal evo level in Lush Jungle. It’s a 1% chance to find a Larvesta, and then after that, a 1% chance of the Volcarona being summoned via an SOS call. In other words, same odds as this Magikarp hunt. And just as the Level 100 Karp hunt can be stalled by not every cast getting a bite, my Volcarona hunt was stalled by not every SOS call summoning something, not to mention needing to KO the Larvestas that got summoned 99% of the time. Takes a ton of patience to get through a hunt like this, but it’s super satisfying to complete it. Congrats on yours!

The fact that the Lv 100 Magikarp was caught with a Critical Capture too was great - the amount of Evie luck in this video is crazy.

I love the battle cats, so happy with this sponsorship thank you for bringing more attention to this absolute goldmine of a mobile game

This was an interesting hunt. I like the odd hunts like these :D

Love the shot of the games on your DS and the "no cheating device" throw back. Congrats on your hunt!

I actually caught the "Ruler of the pond" in platinum a while back! I kinda cheated with the pressure ability on my Absol XD. Caught mine in a master ball and named her Ruler. Great video!

You are a madman! I haven't even watched the video yet, and I'm shook that you did this!

I would have loved to see the 100 Lvl Magikgarp use Splash at the end of the video ^^

It's worth noting that 42 is the meaning of Life, the Universe and Everything, so a shiny lv 42 Magikarp is extra blessed good luck.

If you seek the definition of "determination" I'm sure a picture of Lucy will be right next to it. Congrats for this amazing feat. And it's amazing to see how many hidden mechanics these games have.

W video , I wouldn't have the patience for all that. Definitely subbing!

Talk about working hard to achieve your goals. Truly amazing dedication to your Pokémon work. Keep up your amazing work on your future RU-vid videos.

Im actually glad you did Black 2/White 2 for this challenge since everyone does that in Platinum its refreshing to see it done in another game

Our queen has once again graced us with her presence

😊 another great video! Congrats on the Fishy

The fish isnt the legend, you are! I tried in platnium and got some high 70s but never knew about the lv 100 Great video!

I had a similar experience last year in Pokemon Gold. I wanted to get a Lucky Egg from a wild Chansey. It's not nearly as rare as the lv 100 Magikarp, around 1 in 2000 (according to Serebii). I didn't want to use a Repel Trick to force more Chansey encounters. Lo and behold, I found a shiny Noctowl before finding the Lucky Egg holding Chansey.

A true work of art 😌

Congrats of the carp I wonder what the best challenge will be, will be waiting for more content.

I literally love watching your videos, if I wait a while to watch them I can just binge them like my favorite show

Just from the title I can tell this video is going to be a banger

Very awesome video and a very fun hunt! I’m glad to see that Generation 5 has some fun and interesting encounters to hunt!

The sound of genuine happiness warms the soul when she found it

The 'Small Fry' visual joke was 👌

Fun Fact: The shiny charm in B2W2 actually doubles the chance of finding a shiny instead of tripling it like Gen 6 onward, so you are working with 1/4096 odds on Black 2

Now to do it again in Teal Mask!

Shiny sprite of Magikarp from gen 5 is so gorgeous! ✨💓✨

This will be amazing

Imagine hunting for a shiny level 100 magikarp.

Unless I'm missing something I'm pretty sure that gen 5 has the 1/8192 base shiny odds

did i just hear that THE CandyEvie hasn’t played platinum??? the best way to play through sinnoh?? very interesting

"My childhood copy of Black 2." Now I feel old, sitting here with my childhood copy of Red.

I didnt even think finding a level 100 Magikarp in any of the main series Pokemon games was possible, but here we are. Haha Congrats Lucy!

Magikarp what a glorious fish

Pokémon needs to do give you an award for this.

Man, seeing the graphics of Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 is so nostalgic to see. I miss my childhood 😢...

Shoutouts to Chonk the Emboar, truly a real one.

This is where PM7 keeps his feeshes

I just wanted to tell you that you're adorable, and I'm always happy to see when you post new videos

Your dedication is both impressive and terrifying

It's kinda funny to think about, that she could have just repelled with a level 100 pokemon in the front of the party for a 100% chance at the level 100 magikarp.

You should play platinum it fixes alot of the issues with d/p

Yessss! George end card is back! I love him!

The magikarp jump reference in the pile is amazing

I actually caught it and when I was 9 years old and I deemed it worthless due to it being unable to evolve. Ended up having it deleted with a save file. I was looking for what was suppose to be the monster of the area and I caught a shiny magikarp thinking it was the monster afterwards based on the red gyarados that was supposed to be at Lake Verity. Not realizing I could never find the monster there. Still have that shiny magikarp I evolved to this day.

Ah the level 100 Magikarp, I tried to hunt for it a long while back but couldn’t find it (was before I was into finishing shiny Pokémon, also) Magikarp jump league staff would be flocking to these locations to get the best karp possible 😂

You actually got it 😂 and sooner than I expected. Congrats!

hey Lucy, love the vids, keep up the good work!

Does the level 100 Magikarp have random stats like any other Magikarp? That would add another layer to this even if you can change them easily in newer games

imagine trying to shiny hunt it

You know a day is good when Lucy uploads!

Hell yeah, the cool lvl100 magicarp AND a Battle cats ad, this is great

Not counting the level 100 Magikarp and the other wild level 100s, I'm pretty sure the level 85 Alpha Garchomp in PLA is the highest level wild Pokémon ever.

why would anyone do this to themselves

Such amazing video this is my favorite you've done here.... if you have pokemon scarlet and violet you should find a "Shiny" lv100 magikarp next time. And you should also do shiny hunting❤

I adore the shiny magikarp Fry, I was not expecting a futurama reference here

I did this in platinum when I was young, but the intimidate ability in party slot 1 would prevent the lower level spawns so the chances were greatly improved, not sure on specifics there, though.

Candy is a hunting queen! 👑

You’re definitely a different breed if you can truly commit to serious Pokémon grinding for all these years.

Fun Fact: as of Sword and Shield you can evolve a level 100 Pokémon by using a rare candy on it, provided the evolution criteria for that Pokémon are met. So, not that you have any reason to even _consider_ doing this but, you could evolve that karp into a Gyarados if you wanted to. Speaking of that angry sea serpent, I actually hunted one not that long ago. There was an outbreak and I thought why not, so I searched up a shiny sandwich recipe for it and, once I knocked out enough to get the best odds it almost instantly spawned. It's nice that the game tells you when you've KOed enough to get the odds.

I salute your dedication! O7

I don’t know if you have played RuneScape before but your grinding mindset would be awesome for It! Love the vids!

Congrats and sososo much respect

Love the humour and charm of this video ^^
