Flapdragons are flying snakes known for their bright blue lips, sail extending along the spine, and the two little wings sprouting from the rear of their heads. They appear to have a viper's distinctive spade-shaped head and matching fangs, but are noted to prefer strangling their prey like the larger constrictor snakes.
These snake-drake hybrids use their chunky tails to constrict their prey. Great for both synthesis and rearing for battle, these beasts are highly sought after by monster wranglers the world over
The Flapdragon's chubby appearance and ability to fly are a homage to the tsuchinoko youkai, which is described as being a plump serpent that can jump once again while already airborne.
The in-game description in The Dark Prince references the Flapdragon being used by Milly as part of her team serving as the final boss in the original Monsters game.
