Clair’s Dragonair (Japanese: イブキの'ハクリュー Ibuki’s Hakuryu) is Clair's main battling Pokémon in the anime, and Clair also has three in the Generation II games.

In the anime

Dragonair first appeared as a Dratini in the episode Beauty is Skin Deep. Its voice actress in both Japanese and English is Megumi Hayashibara.

It was shedding its skin and Clair was protecting it at that time. When Team Rocket tried to steal Dratini, Clair protected it which led it to evolve into Dragonair.

It later appeared in Fangs for Nothin' where it tried to stop Team Rocket from stealing the Dragon Fang. When the Dragon Holy Land was in flames, Dragonair helped to put out the fire. It also helped to calm the rampaging Dragonite along with Charizard and Pikachu.

Clair used it in the gym battle against Ash in Better Eight Than Never. With its speed and power, it defeated Ash's Pikachu easily. With a wide range of moves like Dragon Rage, it proved to be a tough challenge for Charizard as well. But finally it was able to defeat Dragonair with Seismic Toss earning Ash the Rising Badge.

Dragonair also appeared along with Clair in Why? Why Not! where it helped Ash find his missing gym badges which were stolen by Team Rocket.

It made a brief cameo during Kotone's introduction of Johto in DP143.
