List of in-game event Pokémon (Black and White)
This is a list of Pokémon obtainable from events found in the Generation V Pokémon games. These specific instances of Pokémon can only be obtained once per game; however, some may also be obtained in other ways as well. In addition, some Pokémon, such as Musharna, regenerate and can be encountered on a weekly basis.
Pokémon Black and White
Magikarp
After defeating Ghetsis and viewing the credits, the player can access the Marvelous Bridge. At the west end of the bridge is a salesman who will offer a Magikarp to the player for $500. Unlike in previous games, Magikarp cannot be found anywhere in Unova without the use of Poké Transfer, making it worth the investment.
