Return/Aerial Ace

Gyarados is a bit weak for a special moveset. With only 60 base stat in SPATK, it won't OHKO anything. The above is an physical moveset and Hydro Pump is to use against Rhydons etc.

Gyradose doesn't learn Aerial Ace, replace that option with HP Flying. And Taunt/Thunder Wave would be a better option over Hydro Pump but since it's ingame Hydro Pump should do just fine.

For a special set Gyarados should have something like

Hydro Pump
Ice Beam
Fire Blast
Thunder

HP Flying would be nice somewhere on there but you probably can't get it.
Don't use it though, it's basically used in competitve play for killing most of Gyarados's counters, but ingame it sucks. Stick with the DDer

Gyrados is not a special sweeper. It is a physical sweeper.

A good trainer makes Gyarados a physical sweeper. Adamant is the best Nature for it.

Also, good Hidden Powers are nearly impossible to get in-game so stop suggesting them, people!
