The POTW section on SPP have some awesome movesets for Kingdra and Gyarados. Check them out first. In my opinion, however, Kingdra is far better.

gyarados is used much more in competitive play, kingdra is rarely used. kingdra's moveset is extremely limited, but its stats are very balanced. gyarados can learn a variety of moves (though also only a handful of them can be used to the best effect) and gyarados' stats are very good overall. gyarados can learn a variety of special attacks but his sp. at is very low (the only stat that's below average) and can't put them to good use, but can also learn a variety of physical attacks (earthquake tears apart both electric and rock types), can learn dragon dance to boost att and spd, and is overall looks cooler. kingdra is alright in my book, but gyarados is definitely more poweful.

I would use:

Kingdra @ Leftovers/Chesto Berry
Surf
Rest
Body Slam/Ice Beam
Rain Dance

Or

Garados @ Leftover/Shell Bell
Dragon Dance
Earthquake
Hyper Beam
Hydro Pump/Surf

I prefer Kingdra but garados is good too

As for me I use :

Gyarados :
Surf
Blizzard
Facade
Hyperbeam

Kingdra :
Ice Beam
Surf
Hyperbeam
Dragonbreath

reason why I have to give gyarados 2 special attack is because I want to use him to fill up its role as a counter to fire , rock and ground . And use powerful Ice attack to take out Dragon .

Because if it were to stand up against it fellow water type , if it use physical attack or learn tm thunder , it will clearly have advantage against many others except for pokemon protected from rock type ( against ur normal attack ) or ground , grass and dragon type ( against ur thunder )

Cause I feel that gyarados special attack is kinda low compare to other water type . If a gyarados is poison , burn and paralyse , it physical damage further increase . I just teach it blizzard to take out a dragon type and I must make sure that the dragon is really dead or take out one of its offensively ineffective type grass ( I would rather have my dragonite or charizard to do work ) , and like i say , I use water type attack to fill out its role just like any water type , put out fire , weather rock and erode ground . And I wouldn't advise teaching gyarados , dragon type moves , cause it special attack is low

Here is somthing. Breed gyrados with a horsea/seadra/kingdra after it learns dragon rage, until you get a horsea with dragon rage, then breed it with an altaria that knows dragon breath, to get a horsea with both dragonbreath and dragon rage. raise it to a kingdra, and it will kill all that stands in its path.

LOL at peeps who say Kingdra is better than Gyarados

Gyarados looks cooler, has a better movepool, and it is more useful competitively. Kingdra has a very limited movepool, which is its fatal flaw, and that is what prevents it from being really good in the metagame.

Kingdra is overrated by newbies and underrated by veterans.
