Dex Flavor Text

Game	Dex Flavor Text
Pokémon Red	In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today.
Pokémon Blue	In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today.
Pokémon Stadium	あいてが　どんなポケモンでも　どんなに　おそろしい　わざを　しかけようともただ　はねる。
Pokémon Stadium	Whoever its opponent, and however horrible the attack it receives, all it does is Splash around.
Pokémon Yellow	Famous for being very unreliable. It can be found swimming in seas, lakes, rivers, and shallow puddles.
Pokémon Gold	An underpowered, pathetic Pokemon. It may jump high on rare occasions, but never more than seven feet.
Pokémon Silver	For no reason, it jumps and splashes about, making it easy for predators like Pidgeotto to catch it mid-jump.
Pokémon Ruby	Magikarp is a pathetic excuse for a Pokemon that is only capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted scientists to undertake research into it.
Pokémon Sapphire	MAGIKARP is virtually useless in battle as it can only splash around. As a result, it is considered to be weak. However, it is actually a very hardy POKeMON that can survive in any body of water no matter how polluted it is.
Pokémon Emerald	Its swimming muscles are weak, so it is easily washed away by currents. In places where water pools, you can see many MAGIKARP deposited there by the flow.
Pokémon LeafGreen	In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today.
Pokémon FireRed	It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic POKeMON in the world.

Pokémon Diamond	It is said to be the world's weakest Pokémon. No one knows why it has managed to survive.

Pokémon HeartGold	An underpowered, pathetic Pokémon. It may jump high on rare occasions, but usually not more than seven feet.
Pokémon SoulSilver	For no reason, it jumps and splashes about, making it easy for predators like PIDGEOTTO to catch it mid-jump.

Pokémon White	ながねん　いきた　コイキングははねるだけで　やまをも　こえるがわざのいりょくは　よわいまま。

Pokémon X	Es ist nutzlos, was Kraft und Geschwindigkeit angeht. Dieses ist das schwächste und erbärmlichste Pokémon der Welt.
Pokémon X	ちからも　スピードも　ほとんどダメ。せかいで　いちばん　よわくてなさけない　ポケモンだ。
Pokémon X	It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic Pokémon in the world.
Pokémon X	힘도 스피드도 거의 없다. 세상에서 가장 약하고 한심한 포켓몬이다.
Pokémon Omega Ruby	Nella lotta Magikarp è inutile, poiché può solo sguazzare. Infatti è considerato debole. In realtà si tratta di un Pokémon molto robusto che sopravvive in tutte le acque, anche le più inquinate.
Pokémon Alpha Sapphire	튀어 오르기만 하는 한심한 포켓몬이다. 왜 튀어 오르는지 조사한 연구자가 있을 정도로 무조건 튀고 튀고 튀어 오르기만 한다.
Pokémon Alpha Sapphire	Magikarp è un patetico esempio di Pokémon capace soltanto di dimenarsi e sguazzare. La natura di questo comportamento inutile è oggetto di studi da parte del mondo scientifico.

Pokémon Omega Ruby	튀어오르기만으로는 만족스럽게 싸울 수 없어서 약하다고 여겨지고 있지만 아무리 더러워진 물에서라도 살 수 있는 끈질긴 포켓몬이다.
Pokémon Omega Ruby	Magikarp es prácticamente inútil en combate; solo sirve para salpicar, y se le considera muy débil. Con todo, en realidad es un Pokémon muy resistente. Sobrevive en cualquier medio acuático, aunque esté contaminado.
Pokémon Omega Ruby	Magicarpe est virtuellement inutile en combat. Il se contente de faire des ronds dans l’eau. On le considère plutôt faible. Pourtant, ce Pokémon est très robuste et peut survivre dans n’importe quel environnement, même très pollué.
Pokémon Omega Ruby	Karpador ist im Kampf praktisch nutzlos, da es nur platschen kann. Daher wird es als schwach eingeschätzt. Es ist aber tatsächlich sehr robust und kann in jedem Gewässer überleben, egal, wie verseucht dieses ist.
