Try to look around the water resources to find a Magikarp because this is a Water Type Pokemon and will most likely spawn in such areas. 

If you want to double the number of candies you get for catching a Magikarp, you must feed the Pinap Berry to the Magikarp you want to catch. 

Moreover, you can also get Magikarp candies hatched out of the 2 Km eggs. And with the help of rare candy that you can earn as the raid battle rewards, you can increase the count of Magikarp candies you have. 

Taking part in higher-level raids will be much more advantageous for the players to collect more of the rare candies. 

Another great way of quickly collecting a lot of Magikarp candies is by completing the field Research Quests where you receive these candies in the form of rewards as a result of accomplishing the tasks. 

Once you get all the 400 Magikarp candies through these different methods, you can tap on the Evolve Button to evolve your Magikarp and get your Gyarados Pokemon in exchange for it.
