Description Dratini are elusive but beautiful creatures.

Unknown to many are the fact Dratini are actually Mammals. They breath air and can store huge amounts of oxygen in their system meaning they don't have to surface for air for hours, even days at a time, this makes them very hard to spot.
Dratini are sorely sought after by dragon trainers as when they evolve they become very powerful dragon pokemon.

They can live in both fresh and salt water but its found they prefer warmer fresh water and have been found in many lakes and deep ponds over the years.
They are primarily carnivores and eat fish as their main diet, but have been found to eat some forms of weed as this can help with digestion.

They have evolved to have no fins or limbs of any kind over millions of years, however when they fully evolve they transform into their air and land form Dragonite. Dratini are seen as the first stage (pupa form).
Though it does not have limbs it has grown fins on its head made of cartilage which it uses as rudders as it swims through the water.

Hope you like it

Golly, I love it!

I've been waiting for you to do this Pokemon, actually. Can't wait for Dragonair.

You did an amazing job, as always.

Yea, it works for Dratini, and maybe Dragonair...but I just can't see the big dude being a mammal....Haha, prove me wrong someday.

oh my I do really like this. When I saw it I thought, 'Is that the lochness monster based off of dratini?" But really it is dratini! I love the detail work. this really incorporates reality and the pokemon world together for a lovely finish ;3

lol I did already XD I would've never thought that I could change the rules of pokemon... I thought it was too risky b/c I wanted to keep my pokemon stories completely pokemon, but you inspired me to go against those rules. If dratini is a mammal then that mean that other pokemon that resemble mammals can be. This opens up a whole new door XD I can make it so that pokemon can have live offspring XD XD

JoshuaDunlop In reply to 123455555666 [2010-02-08 22:20:56 +0000 UTC]

yep, or they can still be mammals but lay eggs like a platypus. Much of pokemons 'rues' make no sense lol, like the fact im taller than a charizard haha or geodude floating?

123455555666 In reply to JoshuaDunlop [2010-02-08 22:24:59 +0000 UTC]

yeah XD I noticed that too. When you drew Rhydon it was dinasaur size XD I do dislike how pokemon is incosistant with certain facts such as size. I would assume they would base heights off of the show, but they messed up certain pokemon heights like ghastly. In the show it fully comsumed jesse's head, but according to the pokedex in emerald they are very much smaller....
