Magikarp

Little Explorer Ages 4 to 6 · Bold simple detail Level 2/5

Tested by kids aged 4 to 6

This iconic water-type Pokemon showcases Magikarp's distinctive features: its large round eye, prominent crown-like dorsal fin, and flowing whisker-like barbels. The fish-shaped body is outlined with clear, bold lines that make this Generation 1 favorite straightforward to color. Magikarp's determined expression gives this simplistic Pokemon plenty of personality despite its famously weak battle stats.

Coloring tip

Magikarp is traditionally a bright red or orange with white and cream-colored areas. Try coloring the main body red, the belly and whiskers white or cream, and the fin tips a deeper red to make them stand out.
