It is said the Lake of Rage was created the last time many {{p|Gyarados}} got together and stirred up a storm. The crater that remained filled with rainwater and became the Lake of Rage. In the middle of the lake dwells a {{Shiny}} [[Red Gyarados|Gyarados]] that had recently became irritable due to the radio waves transmitted by [[Team Rocket]] from their [[Team Rocket HQ|hideout]] in [[Mahogany Town]]. The Lake of Rage was considered a dangerous place to go, as the [[red Gyarados]] started tipping over boats and scaring swimmers.

The Lake of Rage is located north of {{rt|43|Johto}}. Along the way to the Lake of Rage, the {{player}} will meet several members of [[Team Rocket]]. By {{m|surf}}ing into the middle of the lake, the player will encounter a [[red Gyarados]]. After catching, defeating or fleeing from it, the {{player}} will receive a {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Red Scale|Red}} {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Red Scale|Scale}}. [[Lance]], of the [[Elite Four]], will be waiting for the player on the shore afterwards, and will speak of the secret [[Team Rocket]] hideout in [[Mahogany Town]].

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} it will rain at the lake every day except Wednesdays. When it rains, the lake will flood; this flooding is not present when the weather is calm. Different items are accessible and different Trainers appear depending on the weather.

To the northwest of the lake, there is a house hidden within a labyrinth of trees. Inside, a man will give players {{TM|10|Hidden Power}} for locating the reclusive house. The path to this house begins in Route 43, on the western side. In Generation II, crossing the lake is not required, but it is the opposite in Generation IV, as the house is only reachable when the Lake is flooded. On Wednesdays, [[Week Siblings|Wesley]] is found near this house, and will give the player a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Black Belt}} the first time they meet, and then a {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Downcast Ribbon}} every week after having met all seven siblings ([[Generation IV]] only).

Southeast of the lake is another house, where a [[Fishing Brothers|Fishing Guru]] resides. His greatest dream is to see the world's largest {{p|Magikarp}}, and he regularly measures those brought to him in order to realize it. If the player brings him a large enough {{p|Magikarp}}, he will give the player an {{DL|Ether|Ether}} as a prize.  

The player can also {{m|Fly}} to the Lake of Rage; in [[Generation II]] it is the only destination in any game that can be flown to where the player will not land in front of a building, but in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} the player lands in front of the Fishing Guru's house.

[[File:Lake Rage anime.png|thumb|200px|A map of Lake Rage]]

The Lake of Rage, referred to as Lake Rage, was featured in the episodes ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'' and ''[[EP236|Rage Of Innocence]]''. [[Team Rocket]] attempts to capture the [[Red Gyarados]], and also force other Pokémon to evolve and reach the "Red State". Their plans are thwarted by [[Lance]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, and Lance captures the Red Gyarados.

The Lake of Rage appears in the ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'' manga.  

{{adv|Gold}} follows {{adv|Silver}} to the Lake of Rage. Looking for him, Gold is surprised by a group of Gyarados thrashing around in the water. The locals flee, but Gold spots Silver running towards the lake. Nearly crushed by a glancing attack, Silver tells Gold that there are strange radio waves in the area, forcing the wild Pokémon to evolve. Silver flies off to find the source of the radio waves, leaving Gold alone to deal with multiple angry wild Gyarados by himself.

Interference on their [[Pokégear]] reveals the source to be a red Gyarados in the center of the swarm. Silver captures it, thus stopping the rest from rampaging. But it's only a matter of seconds before the two boys begin arguing again.

Suddenly, a fog covers the area. Gold instantly recognizes it as that of the [[Masked Man]]. Secretly setting up a ring of razor-sharp icicles around them, the two boys fight alongside each other, before the Mask's taunting gets the better of Silver. Chasing after him alone, Silver calls upon all of the wild Gyarados in the Lake (as the red Gyarados is the leader of them) and uses their combined strength to attack the Mask.

Meanwhile, Gold is busy dealing with some of the Mask's Pokémon by himself. After cleverly defeating them, he hurries after Silver, only to find the entire lake frozen solid. Silver and his Gyarados are knocked out. Gold runs to him, only to see a giant chunk of ice smash into Silver, throwing him into the water. Claiming that Silver was being punished, the Mask then attacks Gold as well. The last few panels show Gold and his [[Aibo|Aipom]] the instant before a giant chunk of ice is about to hit them, and the impact. Gold's hat and goggles are seen tossed into the air.

 

Many weeks later, [[Lt. Surge]] returns to the battle site to find the Red Gyarados frozen in the lake, and managed to procure both the boys' belongings and the Gyarados itself when it knocks itself out trying to smash open a mass of ice containing Gold and Silver's baggage.

[[File:Beta Lake of Rage.png|thumb|right|The beta Lake of Rage]]

* There is a [[Pokémon Gold and Silver beta|beta]] area in Gold and Silver that includes a [[Pokémon Center]], [[Poké Mart]], and even a Pokémon [[Gym]] surrounding a lake that is a similar size and shape to the Lake of Rage. This area, inaccessible during normal gameplay, is one of the remaining beta maps of towns from the development of Gold and Silver, and may have been a predecessor to [[Mahogany Town]]. This is likely why it's possible to {{m|Fly}} here, even though it's not a city or town.

* A remix of the background music heard here can be heard on most of the [[Sevii Islands]]' routes.

* Even though it is said that Team Rocket's radio signal is evolving all the Magikarp in Lake of Rage, Magikarp can still be found there at any time.

* {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Lois makes a reference to a pink Butterfree, possibly [[pink Butterfree|the one]] that appeared in ''[[EP021|Bye-Bye Butterfree]]'', but more likely an ordinary {{Shiny}} {{p|Butterfree}}.
