Magikarp
What it takes to get
One-diamond cards fill the three guaranteed slots at the front of every pack, so you will see this one very quickly and it has no chase rate of its own.
The cards worth the packs in Mega Rising are the ex, full art and crown pulls — those are the ones with a chase rate, and the ones an account is bought for.

The short version
Magikarp is a Basic Water-type Pokémon with 30 HP, weak to Lightning and a retreat cost of 1. It is card 050 of 331 in Mega Rising, printed at Common, and it turns up in the Mega Gyarados pack. 232 cards in the expansion are rarer than this one. The art is by Yukiko Baba, who has 37 other cards in the game.
In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today.
