I'm sorry "thebest" but I think if you want people to take you more seriously you should try to make your grammar better. For example this:
Quote:

Who of you acually used the red gyarados and raised it in your party and beat the elite for with it, didnt coz that way i would have to get rid of one of my raised party memebers XD
Should be changed to this:
Quote:

Who here actually used the Red Gyarados and raised it to defeat the Elite 4?
I didn't because if I did I would have to get rid of a Pokemon I already raised!
I'm sorry if I sound like a grammar snob, but you should work on that just a bit.

To answer your question: No. I feel the same way. I spent a tremendous amount of time raising my Totodile(Who I am everstoning. He just looks cute as a Totodile, but not as a Feraligatr). I did keep the Red Gyarados though as a memorabilia of Lake of Rage. I think of it as a novelty. Although it does great damage on some Pokemon, it also has a quadruple weakness to Electric Types.

I'll catch the Red Gyarados, but I won't use it on my team. I may just SR for a right nature (preferably Jolly) so I can always EV it and use it competitively. Other than that, I have my Poliwhirl to use as a water based Pokémon, so I'm good.

@ ChrisTom, it would have been better if you told thebest about his grammar through a VM or PM message. Please, leave all discussion here about the Red Gyarados and not the grammar of others.

@ thebest, I have been watching your posts lately, and if you can please take your time and proof read you posts before submitting them to make sure it is easy to understand, then that would be great. ;)

I caught mine and i dont use it anymore

institutions April 5th, 2010 7:38 PM

My Red Gyarados is always an HM slave. Strength, Surf, Waterfall, Whirlpool.
He did beat the E4 with me, though, at level 32.

whoa, seriously? Totodile has like half the stats. =|

Didn't get it. Gyarados get's pwned so bad if he faces a freaking thunderbolt.

Haxxar` April 5th, 2010 7:50 PM

I'm using it for in game battles. Got it w/ a bad nature so.. But Dragon Dance is a beast on it regardless.

GoombaMuffins April 5th, 2010 7:52 PM

I caught it and raised it and now Rage is one of my strongest Pokemon and I love him ^^

Trap-Eds April 5th, 2010 8:07 PM

Lol. I caught the Gyarados, and thought you had to give it to Mr. Pokemon. Luckily no, you just give him the scale, which is a relief I guess; dunno if I'll still use it though.

shookie April 5th, 2010 8:18 PM

I caught it, but I haven't even thought about what I'm going to do with it yet. So far it's my Waterfall slave, and since it's Gentle it won't do much as far as serious battling is concerned.

MrGhost April 5th, 2010 11:01 PM

I caught it, but I don't use it because everyone I know does use it and I already had a perfectly good water type.

hoboX10 April 5th, 2010 11:41 PM

I use it because I only have 4 or 5 main party members by the time I got to it anyway.

Fire-Red April 6th, 2010 3:52 AM

I will catch it but will not use it in my team. I always used to have a gyarados in my team when I played red/blue/yellow as kid though

I just want to point out that most water types do anyway, and if you're going to get a Waterfaller, might as well be stronger. =|

That and the whole point of Gyarados is to not let them get the Thunderbolt off.

Pikachu-dance! April 6th, 2010 5:10 AM

I accidentally killed it but i have a shiny gyarrados from my platinum so im just gonna trade that over.

zommy08 April 9th, 2010 11:35 PM

Got it, left it. Looked at the shiny sparkle for 2 seconds, left it again.

Anyway everyone would have one anyay so there was no point catching it, only to gather dust in moi Box :3

lol but your sig and your Avatar are both gyarados.


I used him on the E4...He Sweeped Lance for me with Avalaunch

Raichu1988 April 12th, 2010 7:56 PM

In the original Silver and Gold games I had, I never used the shiny Gyrados. At first, I thought he looked real cool, but even on the old games I prefered other water types I had.

I haven't gotten far enough to catch him yet in HG, but I'm sure I won't be using him unless it's to take out Lance with his Ice moves. Depends though. *shrug* He'll probably just sit in the PC forever until someone who actually didn't get him wants him and offers something I like better. :p

lol, right?



But, I only had 3 Pokemon on my team by the time I got to it. I needed a water type, and a red Gyarados sounded perfect. He's still on my team, and still wins for me.

Itz Spadezz April 13th, 2010 3:01 AM

I caught it and raised it. Taught it some good moves and it became a great asset against the Elite 4.

TrilbyMenetti April 13th, 2010 3:31 AM

I caught it (for the novelty, as suggested and the fact that I'm unlikely to catch another shiny), but I didn't use it, since I started off with Totodile and I don't particularly like having more than one Pokémon of the same type on my team. I never used it back in Gold either, but I still caught it.

But, if I start a new game on my currently unused SoulSilver game, then I'll consider using it.

For this Gyarados I Just traded it from my Diamond Version, Along with Many of my Pokemon.

So my Gyarados is still Strong, Kills anything in its path like the rest of my level 100's.
Just, When i Actually look at its stats, It's low. >_>
So I Just kill people with moves like, Whirlpool, Surf, Waterfall, and Icebeam. ^_^
So it's just my Water HM Slave. :D

How is the game any fun when you just walk around with a team full of level 100's beating the crap out of everyone? ._.

And no, I only used Red Gyarados for Waterfall and Whirlpool. :(

I was going to use it so I felt good about having a shiny, but then while I was treking through Victory Road, I encountered a green Golbat. I was simply stunned, lmao.

Moltres111 April 13th, 2010 4:12 AM

yes, I will use it in my playthrough of SoulSilver.

The reason? I need a good water type. And i've always wanted to use it anyway. :)

Edgar tan weng kin April 13th, 2010 4:32 AM
