Magikarp salesman's Magikarp (Japanese: コイキング売りコイキング Koiking-un's Koiking) is a term that can apply to several Magikarp under the ownership of the Magikarp salesman.
Appearances
- In Battle Aboard the St. Anne, the Magikarp salesman sold one to James of Team Rocket, complete with a "gold" Poké Ball. It eventually evolved into a Gyarados. It later escaped in Pokémon Shipwreck, much to James's disappointment.
- In Tricks of the Trade, he tried to sell another Magikarp to James. James was almost roped into it again, but a quick flashback to their first encounter reminded James of who the guy was, causing James to angrily chase the man around the Pokémon Swap Meet, accidentally knock Jessie over, and cause her Lickitung's Poké Ball to fall onto the trading machine where it was traded for Benny's Wobbuffet.
- In Doin' What Comes Natu-rally!, the Magikarp salesman tried to sell another Magikarp to James. James was almost roped into it again, but at the last moment remembers the salesman but before given the chance to chase after him, Jessie and Meowth tell him to forget about him and concentrate on their newest plan to steal Pokémon.
- Next, in Here's Lookin' at you, Elekid!, he first tried to sell Team Rocket another Magikarp, but due to James calling him a rip-off, he instead offered to trade his Weepinbell for James's Victreebel. James didn't want to do this; despite Victreebel's constant attempts to eat its trainer, James still loved it, but Jessie forced him to.
- In Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend, he sold Jessie a so-called Feebas, which turned out to be a Magikarp painted like a Feebas.
- In Showdown at the Oak Corral, he attempted to sell a Magikarp to Tracey, but he was too smart to fall for it. The salesman then ran off upon realizing he was at Professor Oak's laboratory.
In the games
In Route 4's Pokémon Center, a shady salesman, whom was possibly the basis for the Magikarp salesman in the anime, sells the player a Magikarp for 
500. He does not give refunds.
