WHELP The weakest dragon form. Obtained by using any Gene by itself, or any combo that lacks an ability gene.
DRAGON Standard dragon form. Obtained by combining two ability genes (any gene to the left of Miracle except Power).
TRYGON A golden dragon, basically the same as the Dragon form, but has all three elemental breath attacks. Use the Fire, Frost, and Thunder Genes together.
BEHEMOTH Large turtle-like dragon that combines the whole party. Use the Miracle gene.
WARRIOR Basically a winged Ryu; has strong attack abilities. Use the Power gene.
HYBRID Various types of creatures that are based on your other party members. Obtained with the Fusion gene. For all the Hybrids, see the Fusions list below.
PYGMY A tiny little dragon larva. Generally worthless. Combine the Mutant gene with the ??? Gene.
KAISER Ryu turns gold-colored. If not combined with the Failure gene, he will go berserk. Obtained by using the Infinity gene.
WILDFIRE A gold version of the Whelp. It has almost no HP, but its speed is very high. Also, if it manages to survive an attack, it will get a Reprisal doing a tremendous amount of damage. Requires the Miracle, Thorn, and Reverse Genes.
TIAMAT Huge purple snake-like dragon; combines all party members. Combine the Shadow gene with Trance.
MAMMOTH A stronger version of the Behemoth with massive HP and attack power. Like the Behemoth, it combines all the party members. Use the ??? and Miracle genes.
MYRMIDON A souped-up warrior with lots of really strong abilities. The best dragon class. Combine the Power and Trance genes.
*DRAGON POWERS*
When Ryu uses Accession, his powers are determined in two ways: by what class of dragon you are (Whelp, Dragon, etc.) and by what genes you're using. I've listed the two types of abilities separately.
Abilities marked with a + are only available when you're using the Eldritch gene, and ones with a * are only available as an adult.
