Screw you red gyarados

<< < (2/5) > >>

Declan_23:
Actually, because of the way the odds are worked out (even if you come accross 8145 gyaradoses, the chance will still be 1/8146) there is no guarentee of ever finding one.
I hope you had fun wasting hours of your time :D

I think this is the wrong location for this thread.

What you are looking for is known as a "Shiny" Pokemon; meaning, the coloring is different from normal Pokemon. In GSC and HGSS, you can catch one via the storyline at the Lake of Rage. However, in the other games, you are limited to the same chance each time as stated by Declan.

You're better off breeding or trading for it, really.

Monzta:
I caught one, I only surfed around in the lake for half an hour..

LeoReborn:
If you breed 2 non-Shinies, the chance of getting a shiny is actually greater than trying to hunt for it,
Others work like this.

1 shiny-1 non = better chance of Hatching shiny.

2 shiny = larger chance of shiny, not guaranteed.

I think theres an item that increases the odds further, but im not sure.

What your talking about is a Red Gyrados, if you Have either HG/SS (Not GSC) you can catch the Gyrados, and trade it over to DPPt.
