Dragon Pokemon is a separate type of pocket monsters, which belongs to one of 17 elemental subtypes. They got their name due to the outward resemblance to the heroes of fairy tales.
Dragon Pokémon are popular with trainers, as they have the ability to attack and can withstand almost any kind of Pokémon.
Dragon Type: Brief Description
Almost every Pokémon trainer has dragon pokémon, as they are universal soldiers - strong, hardy, capable of damaging the vast majority of species.
The only drawback of dragons (compared to other types of pocket monsters) is their long evolution. Pokemon trainers are always interested in developing their characters to the perfect stage, and the dragon type in this regard realizes itself much later.
But the strength and attacking ability of dragons is so great that even the starting stages of these monsters guarantee victory in battles against rivals of other species that have already evolved. CP (the average indicator of power, stamina and attack of Pokemon) in the game Pokemon GO for dragons is always high, and there is no need to develop them ahead of time.
Dragon attack: against whom are these Pokémon unable to resist?
Dragons are able to fight and deliver a crushing blow to all types of Pokémon, except for steel monsters - against them the attacking power of flying giants is powerless. However, if the Pokemon does not belong to the pure form of dragons, but is a double type of fire / dragon, then, using firepower, it can resist even its sworn enemy.
The maximum efficiency of 200% of the attack in dragons is applied against its own type. Electric, fire, grass and water pocket monsters cause damage to dragons in the amount of 50%, but you should beware of ice Pokemon - their attacks have a double threat (200%).
Although dragon pokemon is strong in nature, the number of attacks in their arsenal reaches only 12. And 10 of them represent exactly the physical power of the dragon type, and the rest - the ability to analyze (smart attack).
