Occasionally, dragon-shaped monsters or pallet-swaps are classified as members of the [[Aquatic family|Aquatic]] or [[Beast family|Beast]] families.
The {{translation|'''Dragon Family'''|ドラゴン系|Doragon-kei|Dragon-type}} refers to monsters in the series that take on forms of traditional Western and Eastern dragons, along with other reptiles like dinosaurs, turtles, and serpents. Occasionally, dragon-shaped monsters or pallet-swaps are classified as members of the {{Aquatic}} or {{Beast}} families. Additionally, this family is referred to as the Beast family in {{DQMCH}}.


The shapes and capabilities of dragons within the series are as varied as in real-world mythology, but these monsters typically have the ability to breathe fire and many possess skills that can [[Poison|envenom]] enemies. In the ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters (series)|Monster]]'' series of games, Dragons are one of the main families. They possess high attributes, though they level up slowly.
The shapes and capabilities of dragons within the series are as varied as in real-world mythology. Many of them have the ability to breathe out fire and in turn, their scales offer them some protection against fire spells and attacks.

"Dragon" redirects here. For the secret class in Dragon Quest VI, see Dragon (vocation).
"Dragon" redirects here. For the race in Dragon Quest X, see Dragon (race).

The Dragon Family (ドラゴン系, Doragon-kei?, lit. Dragon-type) refers to monsters in the series that take on forms of traditional Western and Eastern dragons, along with other reptiles like dinosaurs, turtles, and serpents. Occasionally, dragon-shaped monsters or pallet-swaps are classified as members of the Aquatic or Beast families. Additionally, this family is referred to as the Beast family in Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart.

The shapes and capabilities of dragons within the series are as varied as in real-world mythology. Many of them have the ability to breathe out fire and in turn, their scales offer them some protection against fire spells and attacks.

Effective weapons and skills[edit | edit source]

Dragons are vulnerable to the Dragonsbane, Dragon Slayer, Dragon claws and Dragonlord claws weapons, and as of the ninth game will take an additional 10% damage from any sword. The Dragon Slash skill will deal 50% more damage to dragons.
