    I had Gyarados on my team using Waterfall, Whirlpool, and Surf until after I caught Lugia. I then transferred it to White.

    I killed it to get past the game quickly, no point in catching it as I never use it anyway

    I caught it and let it rot in my boxes. I'm a mean trainer. :(

    No, seriously. I never caught the red gyarados. (in HGSS). I had Totodile for my surfing and whirlpool needs.

    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.

    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
