Magikarp is a Water-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Fish Pokemon (Dex #045). Unlike most Pokemon that require habitat construction before they appear, Magikarp is a static encounter found on the south beach of Withered Wasteland. After befriending it, Magikarp teaches Ditto the Jump ability, one of the most commonly used traversal tools in the game.
Magikarp requests an Ocean Fishing Spot habitat after being befriended. The habitat requires:
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Fishing Rod | 1 | Can be crafted at a workbench |
Seat (any type) | 1 | Any chair, bench, or stool |
Ocean Water (adjacent) | 1 tile | Must be placed directly on the coastline |
The Ocean Fishing Spot is where Magikarp will live after you complete its request. Other Pokemon can also appear at this habitat.
Magikarp is found as a static encounter on the south beach of Withered Wasteland. Simply walk along the southern coastline until you see Magikarp. Unlike habitat-based Pokemon, Magikarp is always present at this location and does not need a habitat to appear for the first time.
Befriending Magikarp is a two-step process:
Walk up to Magikarp on the south beach of Withered Wasteland to befriend it.
Magikarp will give you the Help Me Make a Home request, asking you to build an Ocean Fishing Spot habitat.
Build the Ocean Fishing Spot on the coastline using a fishing rod, a seat, and adjacent ocean water.
Invite Magikarp to live at the habitat. Magikarp will express its gratitude by teaching you Jump.
Magikarp teaches Ditto the Jump ability. Jump is activated by pressing the R button and does not consume any PP. You can jump as many times as you like without any energy cost, making it a completely free traversal tool. Jump allows you to reach slightly elevated surfaces, hop over small obstacles, and navigate terrain more efficiently.
Magikarp does not have a confirmed specialty in Pokemon Pokopia. While most Pokemon contribute a unique specialty to your island, Magikarp's primary contribution is teaching the Jump move.

The Ocean Fishing Spot habitat is a good general-purpose waterside habitat. Build several along the coast to attract additional aquatic Pokemon.
Place water features and ocean-themed items near Magikarp's habitat to boost its Comfort Level.
