Gyarados

Gyarados is the Water- and Flying-type that Magikarp becomes at level 20, introduced in Pokémon Red and Blue and listed as the Atrocious Pokémon. The line follows the Chinese tale of the carp that leaps the Dragon Gate and turns into a dragon.

What makes Gyarados stand out

• Evolution rewires the brain. Ruby's entry says its brain cells change structure when it evolves, and blames that change for the violence; Ultra Moon says the energy of evolution set it off.
• Rampages with a record. Sapphire's entry notes rampages recorded lasting a whole month, and Gold ties its appearances to wartime and blazing ruins left behind.
• The red one at the Lake of Rage. Gold and Silver put a differently coloured, red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage as a boss the player has to deal with before the story moves on.

What this collection covers

Two buildable forms: Bandai's Pokémon Model Kit Gyarados, a snap-together plastic kit, and a Kawada nanoblock Gyarados in miniature brick form.
