The Dimensional dragon is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing as a special monster in Dragon Quest Monsters 2. It is a powerful dragon that can freely move between dimensions.

Characteristics

The dimensional dragon has the appearance of a large Chinese dragon with teal scales, coral-like antlers on its head, yellow eyes, a purple mane, and a long pair of whiskers. However, what little of the dragon's body can be seen is limited to its head and front claws poking out of a dimensional portal. Its appearance was originally limited to the Monsters series of games and various spinoffs in the series, eventually appearing in X as a special boss that can be challenged by high level players. The dimensional dragon often has access to powerful techniques such as calling down lightning and having a particular affinity for breathing out freezing cold blasts and even explosive outbursts.

Appearances

In the Japanese version of the game, the Dimensional dragon appears as the boss of one of the Stargazer events, and had various difficulties.

In the Global version, it only appeared as a Fiend-difficulty boss, and its key was only obtainable though the bushy bazaar. His name was localized to Fu Ts'ang Lunge, which references the Fuzanglong, the Chinese dragon of hidden treasures.

As a boss, Fu Ts'ang Lunge could perform strong Zap, Woosh and Dark Breath-type skills that hit all the characters, as well as inflict them with sleep and lock. It was weak to Rubblerouser attacks, resisted Woosh and Zam-type abilities, and was neutral to everything else.
