Where Do You find The Red Gyarados In Pokemon Pearl?

Answer 1

Red gyarados can be found like any other shiny Pokemon. Every time you meet a new one, you have a 1 in 8192 chance that the gyarados will be shiny, which means it will be red instead of blue. That's only a 0.0122% chance of finding one!

Since shiny Pokemon retain their shininess when they evolve, it is also possible to get a red (shiny) gyarados by evolving a shiny magikarp. Shiny magikarp are yellow colored.

Additionally, since HeartGold/SoulSilver features a red gyarados in its story line, it would be possible to catch the red gyarados from the Lake of Rage in HeartGold/SoulSilver and then trade it to Pokemon Pearl.

For the lazy, ActionReplay has codes that make it so that all Pokemon that you find in the wild are shiny. This would make all gyarados you find red colored. Here is the code:

02066b90 47004800

02066b94 02000001

e2000000 0000003c

6800480d 490b6840

88011808 9c0d8842

40510c24 20074061

04244041 940d430c

21001c28 f067aa0d

4801fc9b 46c04700

02066b99 000002e0

021c4d28 00000000

d2000000 00000000

Remember, this code only works for Pokemon Pearl, and not Diamond. Also, it only changes the color of wild Pokemon, so any trainer owned Pokemon will remain blue.
