Rarely seen in the wild. Huge and vicious, it is capable of destroying entire cities in a rage.
Yellow Brutally vicious and enormously destructive. Known for totally destroying cities in ancient times.
Gold They say that during past wars, GYARADOS would appear and leave blazing ruins in its wake.
Silver
SoulSilver
Once it appears, it goes on a rampage. It remains enraged until it demolishes everything around it.
Crystal It appears whenever there is world conflict, burning down any place it travels through.
Ruby When MAGIKARP evolves into GYARADOS, its brain cells undergo a structural transformation. It is said that this transformation is to blame for this POKéMON's wildly violent nature.
Sapphire Once GYARADOS goes on a rampage, its ferociously violent blood doesn't calm until it has burned everything down. There are records of this POKéMON's rampages lasting a whole month.
Emerald It is an extremely vicious and violent POKéMON. When humans begin to fight, it will appear and burn everything to the ground with intensely hot flames.
FireRed It has an extremely aggressive nature. The HYPER BEAM it shoots from its mouth totally incinerates all targets.
Diamond Once it appears, its rage never settles until it has razed the fields and mountains around it.
Pearl In ancient literature, there is a record of a GYARADOS that razed a village when violence flared.
Platinum Once it begins to rampage, a Gyarados will burn everything down, even in a harsh storm.
HeartGold They say that during past strife, GYARADOS would appear and leave blazing ruins in its wake.
