Bagon (Japanese: タツベイ Tatsubay) is a Dragon-type pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Bagon is a bipedal, blue, reptilian pokémon vaguely resembling a Pachycephalosaurus. It possesses a large, round snout, triangular eyes, yellow, circular ears similar to reptiles, and a yellow lower jaw with two teeth protruding upwards. Three thick, gray ridges cover the top of its head and continue downwards to cover its neck as well. There is a triangular patch of yellow on its underside. It has stubby, digit-less arms and short legs with two toes on each foot.
Bagon lives in rough terrain with cliffs and rocks. It is spurred by a powerful desire to one day fly, and it becomes violently envious when it sees bird pokémon in flight. Bagon leaps from high cliffs every day in doomed attempts to fly, and it vents its frustration by bashing its head into surrounding rocks. Because of this behavior, its head has grown hard as steel, and its muscles are well-developed, especially in its neck, making it strong enough to destroy a boulder in one strike. It is a solitary pokémon that prefers not to form groups. It is thought that Bagon's dream of flight stems from genetic information, and its behavior stimulates its cells in turn to prepare it for Evolution.As mentioned in Sleep Style Dex, Bagon is sometimes seen flapping its arms while sleeping, suggesting it practices flying even in its dreams. Bagon has four different sleep styles: Flying Dream Sleep, Big-Yawn Sleep, Fallen Sleep, and Atop-Belly Sleep.
