Recommended Posts

Im jhaydenite i started in red server and accumulated 360hrs+. Now i encountered lance's rampaging dragonair in rt 6. Event triggered by walking in front of psychic wade. He sill teleport you to the past to battle an epic dragonair, i was defeated in red so i made a payback plan...though other users here posted one already and uploaded a viddeo in youtube. But mine is a better plan no need to buy revives or any healing items...act like a pro guys not a noob with my tactic...

1)what we need is the set of pkmn for slowing down dragonair without fainting, right? So get sturdy but nor geodude or onix, but magnemite(you will find this guys near psychic wade)the lv doesnt matter, why? We need 2 of its moves thunderwave and supersonic, the next pkmn we need is a grass type, we need its leech seed, a plus if it can use thunder wave or spore, coz dragonair has shed skin ability

 

2)attack...first you set of with a magnemite, let.it.hold sitrus berry to troll its ability sturdy, then thundr wave on him, followed by supersonic then switch to your grass type,the leech seed, as the foe.recharges use sitrus on magnemite to fully heal it, to use sturdy again, then keep on using twave.and supersonic,leech seed at this.moment is like max potion, heals generously..keep confusing it and it will kill itself as leech seed do...hope this helps...

Hey there,

 

I was going to post my own guide for beating this dragonair, but since there was already a thread, I figured it would be better to just add my own experience in this one. I defeated Lance's dragonair in 3 turns. This wasn't my first run through PRO, but I hadn't really set out with curb-stomping dragonair in mind. I was actually attempting to get an early start on the Level 100 Rattata that's needed to get to the Hoenn region.

 

Anyway, you only need one of three Pokemon to get this job done. Those pokemon are as follows;

 

• Rattata (Earliest Obtainable - Route 1; Grass)

Level 34

 

• Taillow (Earliest Obtainable - Cerulean City; Headbutt)

Level 26

 

• Starly (Earliest Obtainable - Route 1; Headbutt)

Level 17

 

The levels listed are the minimum they will be useful, and coincidentally the same level that all three of them learn the move Endeavor. The only other things you'll need besides Endeavor is another pokemon to act as your team lead (It can be any pokemon, except one with Sturdy), and a priority move on your Rattata/Taillow/Starly. (Rattata has the convenience of knowing Sucker Punch which can deal a little more damage, but Quick Attack on the other two will do the job.)

 

Enter battle with Lance with your Rattata/Taillow/Starly at very, very low health (1 Health if you can manage it). Dragonair will probably Hyper Beam your lead on his opening turn. After your lead goes down, switch to the injured Rattata/Taillow/Starly and use Endeavor while the dragonair has to recharge. That should bring the dragonair's health to critical levels. On the following turn he'll be able to Hyper Beam again, and that's where the priority attack comes in. Use Quick Attack or Sucker Punch to eat the last few remaining HP on Dragonair before it can attack and you just beat Lance like he was nothing, and added insult to injury by doing it with some of the game's most common Pokemon.
