-'''Magikarp Splash''' was a minigame added to Vortex for the 2018 April Fools day [[Events|event]]. The game involved players controlling a [[Magikarp]] to collect berries, while avoiding hazards such as [[Pidgeot]] and [[Sharpedo]] attacks. If the player was "eaten" by these Pokemon, the game would be over. This minigame was also added back for the 2025 April Fools day [[Events|event]], except there were [[Pidgeotto]] instead of [[Pidgeot]], and you only got 1 Beast Ball and Vortex Ball respectively.

-The gameplay of this minigame was particularly difficult, appropriately reflecting the "April Fools" aspect of the event. [[Pidgeot]]/[[Pidgeotto]] and [[Sharpedo]] attacks were frequent, and practically impossible to avoid resulting in many "game overs" for players. Due to this, most players struggled to accumulate a large number of points which made the top prizes difficult to reach. However, the event was enjoyed by many and proved very popular as seen by the number of players who participated.
