The '''Red Gyarados''' (Japanese: '''あかいギャラドス''' ''Red Gyarados'') is a term used to refer to a {{p|Gyarados}} that is {{Shiny}}, which is red rather than its usual blue. According to the anime, this is due to the forced evolution; the {{p|Magikarp}} it evolves from retains its red color, having no time to change its scale color to blue. Unlike most Shiny Pokémon, the red Gyarados's existence is [[canon]] in that it is encountered as part of an event in the [[Generation II]] games and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|their remakes]].

In {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold, Silver|s}}, {{v2|Crystal}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the red Gyarados is found in the [[Lake of Rage]]. The player has one chance to catch it and the incident triggers the battle against [[Team Rocket]] in the [[Team Rocket HQ]] in [[Mahogany Town]]. When captured or defeated, the red Gyarados drops a [[Red Scale]]. While this is the only chance to catch the Red Gyarados in the original games, it will respawn in the remakes after the player defeats [[Lance]] and the [[Elite Four]], should the player fail to capture it.

It, along with other {{p|Magikarp}} at the lake, were forced to evolve by [[Team Rocket]]'s [[Pokégear#Radio|Radio]] broadcast. Afterwards, the Lake of Rage was considered a dangerous place to go, as the red Gyarados started tipping over boats and scaring swimmers.

The red Gyarados debuted in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'', where it leaped out of the [[Lake of Rage]] and fired a {{m|Hydro Pump}} at {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. However, the attack did not hit them. Later, during a [[Team Rocket]] plot, {{TR|Tyson}} assigned [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} to capture the red Gyarados. They successfully found the Gyarados and lured it to the surface where the other Team Rocket members caught it in a net. Ash and the group came by and unsuccessfully stopped Team Rocket from getting away with Gyarados, and they too got captured by Team Rocket. [[Professor Sebastian]] explained to them that the red Gyarados was forcibly evolved from a normal-colored Magikarp. Since it didn't have time to officially complete the evolution, the coloration of the Pokémon ended up staying red instead of turning blue.

The red Gyarados made two brief appearances in ''[[PG04|The Lake of Rage]]''. It was first shown being battled by [[Lance]] and his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} in a flashback, its appearance being what inspired Lance to investigate the [[Team Rocket HQ]]. Later, after [[Team Rocket]]'s radio wave generator had been destroyed, Lance witnessed the red Gyarados calming down and diving back into the depths of the lake.
