Poke'mon HeartGold & SoulSilver

[Pinko]

It attracted suspicion from Lance that led to discovering the secret hideout (somehow; that's never really elaborated upon), but that's it. There's no significance to the Gyarados beyond its unusual coloring, and even that only implies that something is amiss.

Therefore, minor.

On a related note, I fully expect the Rocket Base section to be a Double Battle section with you partnered with Lance.

I still believe that it isn't minor, since the Red Gyarados was presented in the game, anime, manga and probably cards.:P

It exists to show you that Shinies exists.
