Bagon (Japanese: タツベイ Tatsubay) is a Dragon-type Pokémon.
It evolves into Shelgon starting at level 30, which evolves into Salamence starting at level 50.
Biology
Bagon is a small, blue, reptilian Pokémon vaguely resembling Pachycephalosaurus. It is bipedal and doesn't have a tail. Its head is as hard as steel, and possesses a large, round snout and triangular eyes. The head also sports a crest-like formation of three thick gray ridges that continue as a slope down its back, iguana-like, yellow colored circular reptilian ears, a yellow jaw and teeth protruding from the mouth. It has stubby arms, a triangular patch of yellow on its underside, and legs which have two toes. It smashes its head against large rocks until it becomes as hard as steel. It also leaps off cliffs to smash its head against large rocks. This is done in frustration of not being able to fly. It has a dream to be able to fly. It lives in rough terrains.
