Defensively, they have resistances to Electric, Grass, Water and Fire. However, many fully-[[Evolution|evolved]], non-{{pkmn2|legendary}} Dragon-type Pokémon have a double weakness to {{type|Ice}} moves, due to their secondary [[type]]s.  Dragon is the only type resistant to all types of starter Pokémon, including [[Electric]].

They cannot do any damage whatsoever to Fairy types with their Dragon-type moves. However, due to their wide movepool, most Dragon Pokémon can still do damage to the Fairy type. There are also some that have typings which can do serious damage to the Fairy type, such as {{p|Dialga}} with its secondary {{t|Steel}} typing.
