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. |
