In ''[[EP016|Pokémon Shipwreck]]'', when Team Rocket temporarily joined forces with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in order to escape the sunken ship, they appeared to lack a {{t|Water}} Pokémon to swim to the surface, at which point James revealed his Magikarp, believing that it could help them escape. Unfortunately, they soon found out that Magikarp wasn't able to swim at all, just {{m|splash}}ing on its place. By sheer luck, the trio was carried to the surface when the ship flooded, along with Magikarp.

The next day, when the group was starving with hunger, they started staring at Magikarp, thinking of {{DL|Pokémon food|Eating other Pokémon|eating it}}. However, when Meowth tried to take a {{m|bite}} out of it, their dreams of a Magikarp lunch were ruined, as, like {{an|Misty}} then mentioned, Magikarp is all skin and bones, making it completely inedible. At this point, James got extremely enraged at Magikarp, declaring that it was completely useless and he didn't want to be its {{pkmn|Trainer|master}} anymore, and kicking it off the raft. This proved to be a big mistake, as it caused Magikarp to [[evolution|evolve]] into a Gyarados. Furious of James's behavior, Gyarados completely ignored his attempt to reclaim its loyalty, and gave a chase for the group. After a while of chasing, it suddenly stopped, roaring into the sky. Instead of giving up, however, as the group was hoping for, this proved to be something much worse, as multiple other Gyarados then appeared, and they unleashed a devastating {{m|Dragon Rage}} on the group, sending them flying in a watery tornado. James's Gyarados hasn't appeared since, having returned to living in the {{pkmn2|wild}}. It was shown in a flashback in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''.
