This game provides examples of:

  • All Balloons Have Helium: The Balloon Dragon (see below)
  • All Your Elements Combined: The Elemental dragon comes closest to this with Earth, Water, and Fire.
  • Auto-Revive: the Rebirth sigil allows this, reviving a knocked out dragon and restoring a small amount of health
  • Balloonacy The Balloon Dragon. Although it doesn't fly with the balloons on its back, it can suck in their helium to produced comically pitched battle roars.
  • CherryBlossoms: The Sweet Blossom dragon.
  • Color-Coded Elements: Red for fire, light blue for wind, blue for water, green for plant...
  • Cupid's Arrow: The Love Dragon, which leaves gifts for other dragons instead of arrows. The Cupid Dragon is a more straight example.
  • Dem Bones: The skeleton dragon. Subverted as it is only allegedly permanent paint on its skin.
  • Dinosaurs Are Dragons: Most of the dragons look like deformed dinosaurs. (Or snakes, in the Wind dragon's case) Special mention goes to dragons with the Mud body, which look like obese baby sauropods.
  • Elemental Powers: Yep.
  • Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul: The Reindeer Dragon constantly plays cheery holiday tunes, much to your implied chagrin.
    "The Reindeer Dragon's affection for holiday music is simply preposterous. This trainer has resorted to wearing earplugs in the dragon's presence, and still cannot remove those cheerful melodies from his mind."
  • G-Rated Sex: Like all dragon breeding games, you get a breeding den.
  • Green Aesop: The Go Green dragon.
    • Also, they once held an event in which seven dragons were revealed, each themed after an endangered animal. (Orca, Sea Turtle, Polar Bear, Snow Leopard, Rhino, and Gorilla) Players were asked to vote for which dragon they liked best; the winning dragon (which, predictably, was the Polar bear) became the Dragon of the Week. Each dragon even got its own personalized island!
  • Fountain of Youth: And it costs fifteen gems to give the effects to a dragon.
  • Gotta Catch 'Em All
  • Lunacy: The Lunar dragon.
  • Moby Schtick: the White Whale dragon
  • Mood-Swinger: The Elemental Dragon.
    "The Elemental Dragon can be quite moody, alternating between a fiery temper and bouts of weeping. This trainer had learned to leave it be when it's being moody, as attempts to calm it can sometimes result in indoor hurricanes."
  • Our Dragons Are Different: These dragons commonly lack wings, seem to be much smaller than the typical dragon, and if their descriptions are anything to go by they act more like cynical housepets in cartoons.
  • Palette Swap: Some dragons are simply palette swaps of each other. The Lava and Geiger dragons are a particularly glaring example.
  • Permanently Missable Content: When a Dragon of the Week/Month has expired, it is highly unlikely they'll come around again save for other events.
  • Power Crystal: The crystal dragon, which is literally a moving pile of crystals shaped like a wyvern dragon, to the point where it doesn't even seem to have visible eyes.
  • The Trickster: The War Dragon is heavily implied to be this.
    "This dragon is always starting fights between the other dragons by spreading rumors. It doesn't seem to care about the outcome of the battle; it just sits and watches things unfold with a creepy smile on its face."
  • Retraux: The Pixel Dragon.
  • Time Master: Kronos, the dragon you unlock by finding shards in separate locations.
  • Turtle Island: One island is actually a huge, sleeping sea turtle.
  • Wings Do Nothing: Dragons with the Earth and Dust bodies sometimes have wings, but dragons with the Fire body are the only ones that can fly, which brings up the question as to why they have wings at all.
