Magikarp taking forever to evolve in Platinum

I've been dragging a Magikarp around with an Exp Share and it feels like it's never going to become Gyarados. What level does it evolve at, and is there a faster way to train it up?

Level 20, same as every game. Fastest in Platinum is the Exp. Share, which Rowan's aide hands you in Eterna City once your dex is far enough along, hold it on Magikarp and let the rest of the team fight. Or lead with it and switch out on turn one. Make sure it isn't holding an Everstone and don't press B when the evolution starts, both have caught people.
