[[File:Clair Dratini.png|thumb|left|220px|As a Dratini]]
Dragonair debuted as a Dratini in ''[[EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep]]'', where it was sleeping by a riverside. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} tried approaching it for a closer look, {{p|Gyarados}} appeared to protect Dratini. Dratini left with Clair and Gyarados following close behind. It caught the attention of {{TRT}} and [[Jessie]] tried catching it on her own with the help of [[James's Weezing]], but Gyarados arrived in the nick of time to prevent that from happening. Clair then revealed that Dratini was shedding its skin.

During the group's lunchtime, Team Rocket returned, disguised as an elderly couple. They pretended to take pictures but as soon as Clair allowed them to go near Dratini, their canes activated which trapped Dratini inside a net. Team Rocket wasn't able to keep Dratini for long as it rocked the balloon, which caused the balloon to crash and Dratini to escape. After {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Thunderbolt}} was {{m|counter}}ed by {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, Clair jumped in to protect Dratini from a stray Thunderbolt. This caused Dratini to [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Dragonair}}. Dragonair finished the villains with {{m|Twister}} combined with Gyarados's {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It led the group to Riverhead Falls where Clair performed her ritual.

Pokémon the Series

Pokémon the Series: Gold and Silver

Dragonair debuted as a Dratini in Beauty is Skin Deep, where it was sleeping by a riverside. When Ash and his friends tried approaching it for a closer look, Gyarados appeared to protect Dratini. Dratini left with Clair and Gyarados following close behind. It caught the attention of Team Rocket and Jessie tried catching it on her own with the help of James's Weezing, but Gyarados arrived in the nick of time to prevent that from happening. Clair then revealed that Dratini was shedding its skin.

During the group's lunchtime, Team Rocket returned, disguised as an elderly couple. They pretended to take pictures but as soon as Clair allowed them to go near Dratini, their canes activated which trapped Dratini inside a net. Team Rocket wasn't able to keep Dratini for long as it rocked the balloon, which caused the balloon to crash and Dratini to escape. After Pikachu's Thunderbolt was countered by Wobbuffet, Clair jumped in to protect Dratini from a stray Thunderbolt. This caused Dratini to evolve into Dragonair. Dragonair finished the villains with Twister combined with Gyarados's Hyper Beam. It led the group to Riverhead Falls where Clair performed her ritual.

Clair used Dragonair as her final Pokémon in her Gym battle against Ash in Better Eight Than Never, after two of her Pokémon were already defeated. It fought against Ash's Pikachu and managed to defeat him easily with Hyper Beam with the help of its speed and power. Dragonair fought Charizard next as Ash's final Pokémon. It proved to be a tough challenge for Charizard as well, as it kept on dodging Charizard's attacks by diving underwater.

Dragonair and Clair

Clair's Dragonair debuted in The Ultimate Battle...?!, where she sent it out to battle Red. As Red had Clefairy battle Dragonair, Clefairy became intimidated by the Dragon Pokémon but was willing to take it on. As Clefairy went for the first move, Dragonair took it in as if it was nothing. Clefairy then got angry after Clair laughed at him as she found it funny. When Clefairy tried attacking again, Dragonair squeezed Clefairy tightly. Pikachu battled Dragonair to save his cousin but he easily became immobile after getting hit by Dragonair's Dragon Breath.

With no other choice, Tyrogue had to battle Dragonair even though he and Clefairy got into a fight earlier but Red scolded him to battle Dragonair. After dodging many Dragon Breaths, Tyrogue managed to free Clefairy by Mach Punching Dragonair. With Clefairy able to battle again, he worked with Tyrogue to take on Dragonair. Using Double Team, both Clefairy and Tyrogue defeat the Dragon Pokémon.
