Magikarp Jump

To progress in the game, players must increase their Magikarp's jump height through several methods of training, upgrading training equipment, and eating berries. In total, there are ten different core leagues plus three additional Expert leagues with varied rewards as of August 2017.

The higher the JP a Magikarp has, the higher the Magikarp can jump and win a battle. First, trainers need to catch a Magikarp from a pond using the available fishing rod; higher quality fishing rods become available after the trainer is able to clear a league. The caught Magikarp are raised in the trainer's ponds. Trainer ponds can be equipped with Decorations to assist with the Magikarp's growth. There are also supporting Pokémon which can assist in giving rewards at certain intervals such as JP, coins, food and diamonds. Jump Power is typically increased by one of two ways: by eating food, or running Magikarp through training sessions, which can only be done if the player has at least one training point. Training points are recovered over time, and food periodically spawns in a Magikarp's pond. Food and training equipment can be upgraded to award more Jump Power to Magikarp. Many upgrades such as these can also be upgraded with real cash, giving the player more of an advantage. While raising a Magikarp, random events are triggered that may increase or decrease awarded JP, give special occasions, or can result the loss of a Magikarp. After raising the Magikarp to its highest level (which correlates to the player's rank), the Magikarp is then pitted against other trainers in League Battles. Many Magikarp can be caught, in many colors such as red, pink, and gold. Gold is the most rare of these, and is also the most powerful in the beginning. Pink Magikarps are moderately rare, but have more of a chance to be obtained than gold Magikarps. Red Magikarps, which is the original color of Magikarp in the games and anime, are the most common. These color Magikarps can have different qualities that boost the chances of a win in League Tournaments. If a Magikarp loses a League Battle at its max level, the Magikarp is retired and trainers must catch another Magikarp and restart the current league that they were in, having to re-battle the same trainers already defeated, but with the ability to skip the battle scenes of trainers that they have already defeated. Also, this gives the player a chance to increase said JP of their next Magikarp, before participating in such leagues. The JP ranking will change depending on how many times the player can go through the leagues each time they compete.
