The Legend of a Magikarp of a certain Region......
Once there was a boy who had fished out a very unusual, golden Magikarp......
Delighted, the boy raised the Magikarp with tender care......
Feeling and wanting to repay the boy's love, Magikarp grew and grew, acquiring the power to jump higher than any other Magikarp in the world; at the end of its training, it had learned powerful Water type moves that could usually not be learned.
Magikarp is often a synonym for weak Pokémon. However, as a result of the boy's love as well as Magikarp's own efforts, they became widely-known as the strongest combo in their region and no one was a match for them......
Linked by a strong bond, the boy and Magikarp are said to have lived happily ever after.
......Before everyone knew it, the story had turned into a legend and a "Golden Magikarp Statue" was set up as the symbol of that region, filled with the wish that eventually, efforts will bear fruit and happiness, seemingly jumping up and down, can be obtained......
