Card 271Ascended Heroes #271 Pokémon Card

Dragonite, the majestic Dragon/Flying-type Pokémon, was introduced in Generation I as the final evolution of Dratini, evolving from Dragonair. Known for its kind heart and intelligence, Dragonite is often depicted as a benevolent guardian of the seas, capable of circling the globe in just 16 hours. Its Pokédex entries frequently highlight its compassionate nature, rescuing lost ships and travelers. In the games, Dragonite is a powerful force, boasting high attack and special attack stats, making it a versatile combatant. Its dual typing gives it unique resistances and weaknesses, notably a severe vulnerability to Ice-type attacks. In the anime, Lance, the Champion of the Indigo League, famously uses a Dragonite, showcasing its formidable power and speed. Dragonite's design, inspired by European dragons and Japanese sea serpents, has cemented its place as one of the most recognizable and beloved pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Its Mega Evolution, as depicted on this card, further enhances its already impressive capabilities, solidifying its role as a top-tier Pokémon both in lore and battle.
