    What did you do with the red Gyarados found north of Mahogany Town in the Lake of Rage? Knocked out? Caught? Used on your team? Boxed?

    Yeah, I caught it. I mean, even though it's the least special shiny Pokémon in existence, it's still a shiny, and I don't want to miss out on that! I can't say I used it every time though xD

    Kept it and used it. Once it learned the right moves, it proved to be a real tank. I think he took out two of Lance's Pokémon all by himself.

    Plus shiny.

    I caught it! Depending on the game though, I either boxed it or used it... I never used it in the GSC games though.

    I think I used it the first time I played Silver, I don't think I used it any other times than then in GSC.

    I don't think I ever finished Pokémon Silver.

    I did finish Heart Gold though, and I did catch it, only for it to be forever boxed.

    I caught it and boxed it. I didn't want the precious shiny to die and hate me. (4 year old self's thoughts)

    I caught it for aesthetic reasons, though I only used it once or twice depending on the game. Even though anyone can get it, its a shiny (and most importantly a very special shiny to my childhood) and its a Gyarados. I'm more of a fan of normal Gyarados honestly though, because its blue.

    I'd kinda feel weird knocking it out, since "in-game event" Pokémon like that I have a tradition to always catch even if I'm not going to use it.

    Shiny Pokémon, so I caught it. However, I had a better Gyarados to use and I permaboxed it.

    I used that Pokémon even to wash the car xD (Was my first shiny in that game and i was in love of him xD). After that I leave it in the box because i always trained all the Pokes and then i returned them to their box, i enjoyed the game with all..to many memories :')

    As I did with the majority of Pokémon that I hadn't caught yet in the wild, I caught Red Gyarados, but always kept it in the box. True, there are other Gyarados in the game, but I always caught this one as this was really a "hard-coded" Shiny "encounter" (given the "clickclickclickclickclick" upon start of the battle).

    The first time I caught the Red Gyarados was in Gold version, and I kept it on my team as an HM buddy, lmao. Having to teach something Surf, Waterfall, AND Whirlpool was extremely annoying so I just threw them on this guy, along with Strength I think.

    If I'm not using him for HMs, he'll probably be boxed. I don't really like Gyarados much honestly ;c

    I always caught it and more often than not I would have it be one of the stronger members on my team. I really enjoyed sending it out to battle to see its stars glitter.

    I'm pretty sure I used it as an HM slave back in Silver, haha. It wasn't my first shiny, either- I had already caught a shiny Unown V at that point, even if I didn't know exactly what it was. I also had a Suicune on my team when I caught it, so it just kind of fell back as my Surf/Whirlpool/Waterfall user because I already had a Water-type.

    I would ALWAYS catch it, obviously for its shininess. Never seemed to use it, though. I only caught it every time because I felt the game wouldn't be complete if I didn't.
