History
Johto
Dragonite first appeared 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 sends Arbok along with the Team Rocket trio blasting off. With the trio taken care off, Lance has Dragonite destroy the Evolution Inducement Ray. They flee along with Ash and the gang. Tyson has a rematch with Dragonite and sends 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 takes 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 flies on his Dragonite and says his farewells to Ash, Misty, and Brock.
Hoenn
Dragonite reappears during the second part of the Groudon and Kyogre saga. Lance has it attack the hole Pikachu made earlier in order to free Ash from Team Magma's helicopter. He flies on Dragonite to take on Archie and Kyogre. Kyogre launches a Hydro Pump which Dragonite narrowly dodges. He offers Ash to ride on Dragonite as Ash, May, Max and Brock chose to stay despite the situation being dangerous. After Kyogre is defeated by Groudon's SolarBeam, Dragonite saves Archie from falling as the orb separated from his body.

Dragonite in Pokémon Adventures
Lance owns a Dragonite in the Pokémon Adventures manga. He has raised it from a Dratini since his childhood alongside his Gyarados, which was a Magikarp at the time. It debuted in Extricated from Exeggutor alongside the rest of his team, and was later used during Lance's battle with Yellow at the Cerise Island. Because it was ravaged and sickly from human pollution at the time of its capture, it was very devoted to his cause, to the point that it would gladly put its life at risk by withstanding the heat of molten lava to serve Lance.
A Dragonite belonging to Lance (presumably the same one) later attacked the Pokéathlon Dome in the VS Togepi, but was eventually beaten by Togebo. Afterwards, it was temporarily given to Gold and was later returned to Lance.

Dragonite first appeared in Jou VS Team Rocket where Lance was flying on it when Jou saw the Red Gyarados. Dragonite was used in the Tag Battle against Ariana and Petrel with Totodile as its ally. It managed to defeat Petrel's Raticate in the end. Dragonite reappeared in Betting on the Name of the Strongest! where it was the second Pokémon sent out to battle Jou. Dragonite was no match for Jou's Totodile at first since Totodile already took damage from his Charizard. After a long battle, Dragonite was defeated by Totodile's Ice Fang, winning the battle for Jou.
