Like most people I caught it but sometimes I just went straight to the point and killed the darn thing.

I haven't caught that thing since the GSC days. I just don't have any place for it on my highly selected team, so catching it doesn't hold much of a point, since I'm not interested in catching them all. I only catch Pokémon when I need them.

Caught it and then boxed it. I already have a Gyarados, which is blue (blue is my favourite colour), so why would I want another one?

I was seriously thinking of putting him in my team before captured him. Then yesterday I had the battle with him, when I finally realized that he looks real ugly </3.. so I just put him in the box and who knows what I'd do to him later..

I totally forgot that I had a Red Gyarados.
Its a good thing nothing bad happens when you put a Pokemon in the PC forever, because thats how long that thing was in the PC.

I built it up to level 50 and beat the johto league.
Then it went straight to bill's if you know what I mean. :)
I honestly believe using both FERALIGATR and GYARADOS was a bad desition on my part, but I love water types!

Sorry is I'm off topic, but if I remember correctly, I traded mine to Pokemon White. Before, I just boxed it, because everyone had one.

In my latest playthough, I've stuck with it, but I'm getting ready to replace it with something else. Probably Empoleon or Starmie...

All other times I've either slung some HM's on it or just left it in the box. Never just defeated it though.

Tried to get a shiny Magikarp (because I thought I could) and failed miserably.

Boxed. Or as I call it, jailed.

No, I don't really call it that XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Restarted my HG awhile ago and actually attempted to use him. He's just hogging space, desperately trying to keep up with the rest of my team.

Lolnope.

For me...an HM slave at most times. I remember putting it in my team against the Elite Four, however, it didn't do much.

I put him in a box and then I forgot he even existed or else I would have used him for something.

Caught it, traded it to PT., took it to the move tutor in the Survival Area, gave it a powerful moveset, traded it back, and got through the Elite Four easily.

My red Gyarados happened to have an Adamant Nature (+Att -SpA), which was really lucky haha~ :P It is currently residing in my PC Box, and I plan to EV train it when I am in the mood some time. :)

I caught it and boxed it, just as the poll says, lol, it never saw the light of day again. I could never find a use for it.

It depends on what my team looked like that point in the game. If I needed a water type, I'd catch it. If I didn't really need it I would catch it and box it to never see the light of day.
