It's said that its endless rage is because its mutation has left it in constant pain. The presence of anything manmade enrages it into a violent frenzy, heedless of any injuries it sustains along the way. The constant suffering it endured throughout its life has twisted it into a violent brute with no sense of self-preservation. Stat and Gameplay Changes: Same as Kantonian Dratini. Lastly, a row of five small white diamond-shaped plates runs down its back, and the tip of its tail has one more on top of a small club-like end like what Mew has on its tail - there's another jagged seam dividing the tip in half, which for some reason leaks smog and pollution when this Dragonair unleashes its Poison attacks. Notably it also has a more prominent mouth this time, a jagged line like Druddigon's although smaller and still near the bottom of the snout. It has a darker brown color to its skin while retaining the glowing green belly and ear fins of its predecessor, as well as its third eye which is now even bigger with more squiggly rings around the pupil the cranial bulge now extends backward to some extent to compensate, with additional veins on it. Instead of a long noodle of a torso, it now has a distinct bulge in the middle, with two short Dragonite-esque legs with three white claws each, the body held at a 45-degree angle like a vintage theropod with a dragging tail and upright neck. It often cries out in constant loneliness, unaware of the damage its very existence causes.įlavor/Design: This Dragonair has developed a Dragonite-like body shape earlier than it otherwise would, the mutation from toxic runoff causing its body to react in bizarre, disturbing ways. Toxic chemicals ooze from its skin, trailing noxious fumes and sludge in its wake. It contaminates the land and water alike wherever it goes. Mutation from the chemicals it was exposed to as a Dratini led to it growing limbs earlier in life than expected. It has the added bonus of no longer being weak to Fairy-type attacks, and not only retains Dratini's varied movepool via TMs and tutor moves, but adds a bunch of Poison attacks as well as its STAB Dragon and Psychic ones to it to take down Fairy-types at its leisure. Stat and Gameplay Changes: Lowered Speed and Attack along with increased Special Attack and physical Defense make this a tankier form of Dratini. The forehead itself also looks more swollen than normal Dratini, with several creepily pulsating red veins on it. Notably, instead of a gem on its bulging forehead, it has a bulging Watchog-esque eye with rings of red and yellow around its tiny black pupil in an animated sprite, these would constantly ripple outwards in an almost hypnotic fashion. Its skin is dull brown like sewage water with a luminescent lime-green belly, ear fins, and snout instead of blue with white accents, its eyes are sad-looking, and its fins are ragged and drooping. New TMs: Can learn all Psychic- and Poison-type TM and tutor movesįlavor/Design: Simply put, this is a mutant Dratini. Replacement Moves: Screech, Cross Poison, Toxic, Poison Tail, Confusion, Pain Split Removed Moves: Leer, Twister, Thunder Wave, Dragon Tail (move to egg moves), Aqua Tail, Rain Dance Updated Abilities: Ionization* (Effect Spore clone, contact may cause poisoning, paralysis, or burning) (Hidden Ability: Perish Body) The mysterious energy emanating from its fins is said to cause headaches and various strange diseases. It has a sad history involving negligence towards its habitat by humans. Forced to drastically alter its body to adapt to the noxious compounds, it's become a twisted mockery of its former self. Once, a Dratini found its way into a pool of toxic runoff.
