Gyarados (Japanese: ギャラドス Gyarados, German: Garados, French: Leviator, Korean: 갸라도스 Gyaradoseu) is a Water/Flying-type Pokémon. It is fairly easily obtained (through evolution) in every Pokémon RPG except Pokémon Colosseum.

Gyarados comes with the Ability Intimidate, which lowers opponents' physical attack rating one level when it enters battle.

Gyarados evolves from Magikarp starting at Level 20.

Name origin

Gyarados' name may be derived from a combination of gyakusatu, and gyakkyo, - Japanese words meaning "massacre,slaughter," and "hardship, adversity," respectively. Both relating to the creature's violent nature and the hardship it experienced before evolving. The "dos" may just indicate that it's the second in it's evolutionary line.

It appears to be based on a sea dragon or sea serphent.
