    I Killed the Red Gyarados.
    Because I Already have a Gyarados in my Party.
    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

    What? So I'm like, one of the few who actually trained my red Gyarados to Lv 66 and used it throughout the game? Gyarados is deadly if used correctly, and it's true. It was the last one standing in my party against Red, and the one who KO'd Red's final Pokemon, Snorlax.

    Nah, I just caught and kept it in the PC and just kept my normal Gyarados (which I raised since it was a Magikarp), since I'm much more used to it. I mean it's just the color that's different right?

    I used it in my party, but it lagged behind the others in level badly. It was only 42 or so when the others were 60.

    I caught mine so I could trade it for something a little bit more rare, like a bulbasaur or something =]

    Yes I did use it. It helped me beat Clair easily. With my Red Gyarados and his Ice fang we owned Clair. And helped me beat Red.

    I caught it and am currently using it. Sadly, Lance wiped the floor with it before it had a chance to attack.....and I haven't battled Red yet, but it should come in handy. Gyarados has always been one of my favorite Pokemon. The fact that you can catch a shiny one without having to spend hours looking for it is a bonus in my mind.

    I'm not quite sure why none of you use/used it. I haven't caught it yet, but I plan to catch it and use it. Who cares if everyone else has it? Everyone else has a Salamence in competitive play, but that doesn't mean it's not a really cool Pokémon with some nice stats. In fact, it means that it is those things. I think that if you think a Pokémon is cool, use it, at least in-game. It doesn't matter if everyone has one, as you aren't trying to impress others by playing the game, right? You're playing the game to have fun, and if you'll have fun using the Red Gyarados, then go ahead and use it!

    Anyways, yeah, I think it will be pretty cool to use it when I catch it as I remember using it in the original G/S and having a lot of fun.

    Caught, raised it to lv 44 and dominated Lance easily. Unlike most people, I actually like Gyarados and I realize how powerful it is.

    It's pretty hard to raise, but its Ice Fang can easily take out Lance's Dragonites, even at Level 41 or whatever it was when I beat the Elite Four.

    I trained it, simply because I've never trained a Gyarados and wanted a Water-type for my team. It's actually a pretty good powerhouse, believe it or not. I probably got lucky with nature/IV's, though. xD

    Mine knows Surf and Waterfall. Before I caught her, I used a pitiful Krabby to surf around. I'm keeping her one Ice move (Ice Fang) for if it's needed in the future, particularly if I come across Dragon types.

    Most of her exp comes from when I was training to beat Clair, as she was the only one in my party who really stood a chance :)
