Whats a good move set for Gyarados?

[Sturgy]

Gyarados@???
Earthquake
HP: Flying
Surf/Return
Dragon Dance

[shineyaltaria]

I had a Gyarados on my first all water BT team (Water Warriors 1) and it did ok (but not as good as Lanturn did later).

Gyarados@lum or shell bell
=EQ
=HP: Flying
=Hyper Beam
=Surf (replace with something better)

[Absol]

Gyarados@Leftovers
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
HP Flying / Return
Taunt

use Taunt when you suspect a Toxic or WoW...

having Return and HP Flying is pointless...

[Mobilesuitgundra]

EQ and Hyper Beam are I think pretty much necessary on a Gyarados... and a water move is a necessity

[Absol]

If you look down at the bottom of the page, you will find a moveset guide...

which includes Gyarados!

[Spiritual Rain]

Unless you cheat for the DVs you want, why HP over Aerial Ace. With probability on its side, AA is usually stronger than HP.

So, what I'm saying:
Unless you know that your HP is stronger, use AA.

Plus, it never misses. :rolleyes:

[shineyaltaria]

The reason is Gyarados cannot learn Aerial Ace, nor any other Flying type move. So if you want STAB for Flying, it is HP: Flying or nothing.

[Spiritual Rain]

Again, this is one of the things that prove how stupid I am.

I ALWAYS DO THINGS LIKE THIS!!! :mad:


Bleh, forget it.

Sorry guys... just ignore me.
:)

[shineyaltaria]

Don't feel bad. I'm always doing stupid things! :D

(Man I really miss that laughing smily)

[Absol]

Yeah, the smileys were way better on the old board...

HP Rock also can work... only Flygon resists both EQ and HP Rock... EQ and HP Flying are resisted by 5 and 2 arent even in RS... Skarmory, Solrock, Lunatone, Aerodactyl, Zapdos...

Gyrados@Chesto/Liechi Berry
-EQ
-HP:flying
-DD
-Rest/Taunt

Taunt is great for taking out tanks/spikers. Taunt, they waste a move, DD, they switch, then if they try to haze, taunt, and sweep otherwise. If you expect a team of all sweepers, then chesto/rest works well.
Don't use water moves, his SA is horrid.

[Monoxide Child]

What is HP Flying?

[Spiritual Rain]

Hidden Power Flying

Meaning Gyarados having it's HP being Flying.

[darklogos]

My modified Gyrados (I actually raised it with the evs and such) is.

Gyrados@???
DD
HYPERBEAM
EARTHQUAKE
VOLT TACKLE

Volt Tackle has saved my tail. Its a good electric move considering Gyrados week specail attack. That gives me a idea. :)

[Absol]

How can Volt Tackle be good????

[Kuiper]

Uh, what the heck is VOLT TACKLE? Do you mean spark, charge, shock wave, or thunder? What is its effect and who learns it (is it a TM)?

[Absol]

Volt Tackle = sharked move...
its like an Electric version of Double-Edge...

you can only get it if you use a gameshark or AR
