The red Gyarados (Japanese: あかいギャラドス Red Gyarados) is a term used to refer to a Gyarados that is Shiny, which is red rather than its usual blue. According to Pokémon the Series, this is due to the forced Evolution; the 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 their remakes.

Artwork of Ethan encountering the red Gyarados for Pokémon Day 2022
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver, the red Gyarados is found in the Lake of Rage. It, along with other Magikarp at the lake, were forced to evolve by Team Rocket's Radio broadcast. In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, this Gyarados has predetermined IVs, with an Attack IV of 14 and IVs in its other stats of 10, resulting in an HP IV of 0. While battling the red Gyarados, if the player uses Roar, Whirlwind, or Teleport, the moves will fail every time. Once 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.
In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, in the Rocket Warehouse located on Five Island, one of the computers displays information about induced evolution using electromagnetic waves, hinting at their future radio transmission in Generation II.
Sightings of a red Gyarados were national news. Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl begins with a news report broadcast in Twinleaf Town of Sinnoh, according to which the Red Gyarados had eluded detection by a research crew; it is unknown to which point in time this corresponds in the Johto-based games, although they happened the same time. The player accompanies their best friend to Lake Verity in the hopes of seeing a similar Pokémon. In Pokémon Platinum, this reference was removed, but a cameraman in the Battle Zone comments he filmed it, and claims it was "award winning".
In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, Lana jokes about having reeled in a red Gyarados once.
While the easiest and most common way to obtain a red Gyarados is at the Lake of Rage in Generations II or IV, any Shiny Gyarados will be red, no matter how it is encountered, through evolution of a gold Magikarp or by encountering it with the normal 1/8192 odds. This is the only possible way to get a red Gyarados outside of the Johto-based games without trading.

Pokémon Journeys: The Series Pokémon the Series
Main article: Lance's Gyarados The red Gyarados debuted in Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution, where it was revealed to have been created by Team Rocket's Project R at Lake Rage as a forced evolution of a regular-colored Magikarp. By the end of the episode, Team Rocket managed to capture the red Gyarados and began transporting it to their headquarters for further studying. At the beginning of the next episode, however, it escaped and began rampaging around, threatening Mahogany Town. In the end, Lance battled and caught the red Gyarados. It has since then made further appearances under his ownership.
Pokémon Generations
In The Lake of Rage, Lance and his Dragonite battled the red Gyarados in a flashback. Its appearance was 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.

Trivia
Pokémon Center Hiroshima logo
- A red Gyarados is featured on the logo of the Pokémon Center in Hiroshima.
- It is impossible to Escape from battle with the red Gyarados in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, unless a Poké Doll is used, a trait shared with the Geodude/Voltorb/Koffing traps in Team Rocket HQ, the Celebi from the Ilex Forest shrine event, and Suicune, when fought at the Tin Tower in Crystal.
