I couldnt sleep last night and as i was laying in bed i thought of this, What if a Gyrados swallowed you whole, and u were alive and were about to crawl out, then its trainer returns it to the pokeball, would u go into the pokeball with it, if so, then when u crawled out of its mouth, would you be in the pokeball? Or would the gyrados return and you would just be on the ground or something else. What do u guys think?

Smogon sucks.
I think the Gyarados will dissapear, and you'll just fall to the ground.

I think it might go into it's ball, and you be let out, but remember that(in the Anime atleast) Pokeballs captured things other than Pokemon lke that episode where Ash tried to capture Mankey and he caught a rice ball.
Of course I don't think that a Pokeball could capture more then one thing at a time though. So I'd stick with the other posters answers.

pokeballs are designed to catch pokemon, not humans... if I threw a pokeball at someone, the ball would just smack them in the face. So your scenario couldnt happen

*sigh*
So what if the gyaradose had a big meal of fish, then returned to it's pokeball? Would it leave a big pile of half-digested fish remains in it's wake?
And thus would eventually starve to death?

No, it wouldnt... Once the food is inside the gyarado's then it becomes a part of the gyarados; thus, it all goes into the pokeball
but in the scenario, you manage to live... if you were already digested, then you would too go into the pokeball
the human in the gyarados would be sucked inside the pokeball as well...
I mean, if a pokemon eats, say an apple, the apple won´t lie chewed on the ground, it would be inside the pokemon and inside the pokeball with it. why would a human being be any different?
It´s stupid to say " when yo alive, the pokeball won´t suck you in, but when you´re dead, you will be inside the pokeball".

This is an interesting question. I would imagine that you would also go inside the pokeball when the trainer returns its Gyarados. I think this way because Gyarados eats, right? XD Well, if it swallowed you whole, you could imagine that you're just like its food - obviously when Gyarados is returned (even if it hasn't eaten a person), the food it ate prior to being in the pokeball doesn't just fall out of its stomach. XD
So I guess in all cases, you'd just be stuck inside Gyarados until you could find an opportunity to crawl out. o.o

I think you think too much...
Anyway, if you were digested, you would be dead so you wouldn't worry about it! If you weren't, you wouldn't return with Gyrados.

Ooohh...that is weird...and also stabs some of my Poke Ball thoeries...hmm...
I've always preferred to think of Poke balls as transforming Pokemon into energy because Pokemon are energy-based creatures. But then that does bring us the question of what happens to their food... I suppose the only sollution is that its food would get turned into energy...how I have no idea. oO;
And (correct me if I'm wrong) but I believe that in the Mankey episode, the rice ball was just held inside the Poke ball and was not actually turned into energy.

Some people have too much to think about.
You would go into the Pokeball with the Gyarados. But you can't crawl out since you are nothing but pure energy anyway. But if the Gyarados was already caught prior to you being eating, I guess only the pokemon would be sucked into the Pokeball. :\

What if the energy of the the Pokemon and the human are separate than when whoever opens the ball do both come out or just one. I think both but what do you think. ;025;
But if the you crawled out of the Gyrados while it was in the Pokeball wouldnt there be 2 in things in the ball.
For those that think only pokemon can be turned into energy, then what if a Gyrados ate a Psyduck whole and it stayed alive and then The trainer Returned the Gyrados, would it be any different?

I'll answer from the standpoint of the manga, which I consider to be more canon than the anime as it has a flowing plot, devoid of pointless fillers, and has something called continuity.
The Pokéballs in the manga have been stated to merely shrink that which capture, though the method through which this is accomplished is unknown. We know from both the manga and game that Pokémon can take inanimate items with them, in the form of the Quick Claw and various other attachable items. These do not fall off upon the host being returned to its Pokéball, repeatedly reattached by the trainer.
Since it appears as if foreign materials are acceptable within a Pokéball's containment field, and it has been stated the entire Pokémon is shrunk, nothing else, I find it likely that you would shrink as well and remain inside the Pokémon. After all, nothing else a Pokémon eats is left behind after it's captured.
To answer your second question, based on the anime's theory of turning the Pokémon back into their energy base, the situation would remain unchanged, and when the Gyarados is released the Psyduck would be (relatively) alive within it. The theory of them returning to energy is an interesting one in that such a state would render the Pokémon unchanging. Energy does not age or change, nor is it created or destroyed. Psyduck would not be digested, nor would it be able to crawl out of the Gyarados' mouth, as if the Gyarados would let it in the first place. A buffer within the Pokéball keeps the energy in a static state so it does not change, and as long as the Pokéball remains intact the Psyduck and Gyarados will be exactly the same as they were when the Gyarados was returned to the Pokéball.
