    I use him regularly in battles, and surf with him.
    Named him Mephisto.

  • Pretty much boxed it after capture. Maybe use it for Waterfall and Whirlpool, the back in the box again.

  • Boxed. I usually don't like to have shinies in my team for some reason (Not that I don't love them as much as my other Pokemon! ^^). I don't really like the way Red Gyarados looks anyway.

    I was borderline between "Boxed" and "HM Slave." I chose "Boxed" because I did teach it Surf and Waterfall, but I deleted Waterfall later and I teach a fair number of my Water Pokemon Surf anyway.

  • I go for the catch after SR'ing several times for a decent nature. After that, it's pretty much stuck in my PC Box as I never have any plans to use it on my team. By then, if I don't have a complete team of six, I usually know what I want to catch next; Gyarados isn't normally included unfortunately.

  • I keep killing it time after time after the E4 as a way to vent my frustation that certain others don't get to see shinies as much, and it certainly deserves to be reminded that it is stealing its unwarranted spotlight from others :>

  • I did caught it and used it once or twice, then I kind-of scammed my friend by trading it with him for a Kyogre. He must've forgotten that every player encounters it, how dumb >.>. Thx to that Gya now I got Rayquaza
