Read more ↓Bagon, the Rock Head Pokémon, is a Dragon-type creature first introduced in Generation III with the Hoenn region. This determined Pokémon is known for its intense desire to fly, a dream so strong that it constantly practices by leaping off cliffs, often injuring its head in the process. This behavior is what led to its incredibly tough skull, which is as hard as steel. Bagon’s diet likely consists of various plants and small insects found in its mountainous or cliff-side habitats. It evolves into Shelgon at Level 30, and then into the majestic Salamence at Level 50, achieving its lifelong dream of flight. In the games, Bagon is often found in specific, somewhat hidden locations, making it a desirable catch for many players. Its evolution line is a powerful asset in battles, particularly Salamence, which is a formidable Dragon/Flying type. In the anime, Bagon’s journey to flight is often portrayed as a symbol of perseverance and ambition, resonating with many fans. Its unique evolutionary path, driven by a singular aspiration, sets it apart from many other Pokémon.
