It saved {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} from getting hit by {{TR|Tyson}}'s {{p|Fearow}}'s {{m|Drill Peck}} by using {{m|Thunder Wave}} on Fearow.

History

Original series
Lance and his Dragonite

Dragonite first appeared in The Legend of Thunder!, in Marina's fantasy of Lance. It made its physical debut in Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution and Rage of Innocence. It saved Ash and his friends from getting hit by TRTyson ([[{{{2}}} (move)|{{{2}}}]])'s Fearow's Drill Peck by using Thunder Wave on Fearow. Unlike Ash's Totodile, Dragonite was not affected by the Evolution Inducement Ray that Team Rocket of Mahogany Town built. Lance fled on his Dragonite after it used Whirlwind on Tyson and the grunts. They met up with Ash and his friends afterwards. Later, Dragonite once again used Thunder Wave to save them from a Pokémon attack but from Jessie's Arbok's Poison Sting this time. Afterwards, Dragonite sent Arbok along with the Team Rocket trio blasting off. With the trio taken care off, Lance had Dragonite destroy the Evolution Inducement Ray's source. They fled along with Ash and the gang. Tyson then had a rematch with Dragonite and sent out not one, but two Fearow to take on the Dragon Pokémon. It was a tough battle for Dragonite as it felt outnumbered but it was able to defeat both Fearow with Twister. Since Tyson had no options left, he ended up getting arrested by Officer Jenny. After defeating Tyson, Dragonite took on the Red Gyarados as Lance wanted to catch the different colored Gyarados. Dragonite was able to weaken the Gyarados long enough for Lance to catch it. With the Gyarados caught, Lance flew away on his Dragonite and said his farewells to Ash, Misty, and Brock.

It was seen in a flashback in Beauty is Skin Deep.

Advanced Generation series

Dragonite reappeared during Gaining Groudon to help battle against Team Magma and Team Aqua. Lance had it attack the hole Pikachu made earlier in order to free Ash from Team Magma's helicopter. He then flew on Dragonite to take on Archie and Kyogre. Kyogre launched a Hydro Pump which Dragonite narrowly dodged. He offered Ash to ride on Dragonite as Ash, May, Max, and Brock chose to stay despite the situation being dangerous. After Kyogre was defeated by Groudon's Solar Beam, Dragonite saved Archie from falling as the orb separated from his body.

In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga

Lance's Dragonite in Pokémon Pocket Monsters
Lance and his Dragonite

Lance's Dragonite makes its first onscreen appearance in Space Havoc!!. After Red's Clefairy defeated Lance's Gyarados and Aerodactyl, Dragonite was the final test for Red to face. Unlike the former two, Dragonite was proven to be a tough foe for Red to handle. With no other choice, Red went in the space shuttle with Lance and Dragonite with Red and the gang, much to their surprise. After landing which resulted in the shuttle getting destroyed by Clefairy, Lance flew away on Dragonite as Clefairy had to deal with Professor Oak, who was not too happy about this.

Dragonite reappeared in The Final Battle!! where it played the role of the dragon that destroyed a village. The villagers asked Red to defeat Lance and his Dragonite to free the rest of the villagers who is working under Lance. Most of the weapons that Clefairy threw at Dragonite were rendered useless as one of them was tied to the catapult and the other one bounced off of Dragonite rather easily. However, Clefairy managed to successfully lasso Dragonite but Dragonite was too heavy for Clefairy with caused Clefairy to fly in the air with Dragonite. When Clefairy got himself fat, Dragonite could no longer lift Clefairy in the air. Dragonite was then thrown into a rocky mountain which made it injured.

Lance's Dragonite's parents

Clefairy attempted to beat up Lance for making the villagers suffer. However, Dragonite defends Lance, saying that Lance is his savior, and tells Clefairy his story. Lance found Dragonite when it was a baby Dratini abandoned out in the rain. Lance took Dratini as his own and gave it shelter from the rain and a bottle for it to drink. Growing up, Lance took Dratini to school where it managed to have evolved into a Dragonair sometime during graduation. After finishing school, Dragonair went through serious training by carrying some rings on its tail and fought a wild Pinsir.
