Origin |
Gyarados is a Water/Flying-type Pokémon from the Pokémon series. It is the final evolution of Magikarp and has a Mega Evolution known as Mega Gyarados. It appears at #130 in both the Kanto and National Pokédexes.
Gyarados are very violent Pokémon, causing destruction in their paths for seemingly no reason. A complete contrast to their pre-evolution, Magikarp, Gyarados are both powerful and intimidating, either overpowering or scaring their foes into submission. Ships that carelessly wander into their territory are destroyed, leaving nothing but a sunken wreck. When Gyarados Mega Evolves into Mega Gyarados, it gains orifices on the sides of its body that jet water out of them, allowing it to streak above water at high speeds; however, Mega Evolution also has the side effect of altering Mega Gyarados's brain activity, causing it to become even more aggressive as its actions now become governed solely by its destructive instincts.
In M.U.G.E.N, Gyarados has been made by various creators.
Minoo's version[]
If you've played any of Minoo's other Pokemon characters, the slow moving yet hard hitting nature of this sea serpent should feel familiar to you. The damage this character (called Gyaradosu because the creator is Japanese) can dish out is downright atrocious, with long range Normals and pressure options galore.
