Raw HP carries Regidrago's bulk more than the defenses do. Defense barely registers. But that HP pool covers for it. A near-impossible to catch Dragon Orb Pokemon that yields 3 HP EVs on a slow 1.25M XP grind.
An academic theory proposes that Regidrago’s arms were once the head of an ancient dragon Pokémon. The theory remains unproven.
Its body is composed of crystallized dragon energy. Regidrago is said to have the powers of every dragon Pokémon.
Regidrago's Dragon typing leaves it vulnerable to Ice, Dragon, and Fairy. 4 resistances help offset the weaknesses. Regidrago's overall bulk (200/50/50) lets it take a hit or two from most weaknesses before going down.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Ice, Dragon, Fairy |
| 0.5x (Resist) | Fire, Water, Electric, Grass |
Chandelure's Shadow Ball hits Regidrago for 68-80%. Glimmora's Power Gem hits Regidrago for 35-41%.

How to Evolve
Breeding
Dragonsmaw isn't flashy, but it matters. Combined with Dragonfang for extra utility and max Sp. Atk and Speed EVs, Regidrago fills the special attacker slot reliably. Timid nature finishes the spread.
