It evolves into Shelgon starting at level 30, which evolves into Salamence starting at level 50.
Biology
Physiology
Bagon are small, blue, reptilian Pokémon vaguely resembling Pachycephalosaurus. They are bipedal and lack tails. Their heads are as hard as steel, and possess 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 their back, iguana-like, yellow-colored circular reptilian ears, a yellow jaw and teeth protruding from the mouth. Bagon have stubby arms, a triangular patch of yellow on their underside, and legs which have two toes.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Its steel-hard head can shatter boulders.
Behavior
Bagon harbors a never-ending dream of one day soaring high among the clouds. As if trying to dispel its frustration over its inability to fly, this Pokémon slams its hard head against huge rocks and shatters them into pebbles. They also hurl themselves off cliffs in vain attempts to fly.
Habitat
Bagon are usually found in mountainous areas, but are otherwise very rare.

Trivia
- Bagon is the second non-Bug-type Pokémon (after Larvitar) to go through a metamorphosis-like evolution. Both Larvitar and Bagon are reptiles, and both of their final forms (Tyranitar and Salamence) are pseudo-legendaries.
- Despite its Pokédex entries saying its head is as hard as steel, it cannot learn Iron Head.
- Bagon's Generation III sprites are much darker than its official artwork. This was corrected in Generation IV.
- Bagon is the only pure Dragon-type Pokémon able to learn Hydro Pump via breeding.
Origin
Bagon is based on a dragon, but possibly draws some aspects from pachycephalosaurus, a species of two-legged dinosaurs known for their domed heads.
Name origin
Bagon's name is possibly a combination of baby and dragon. Its Japanese name is a combination of 竜 tatsu, dragon, and possibly English baby.
