Skill
Increases damage done by any  Dragon  types in the combo.

Dancing Dragons (Japanese: ドラゴンコンボ Dragon Combo) is a skill in Pokémon Shuffle.

Activation

This skill activates only if the player's team contains a  Dragon -type Pokémon.

  • For purposes of this check, Charizard Mega Charizard X and Charizard Shiny Mega Charizard X (both  Dragon  types) do not count. Instead, the former is considered a  Fire  type and the latter a  Flying  type, as those are the types of their respective pre-Mega-Evolution forms.
  • That said, since they deal  Dragon -type damage, they still benefit from the skill's damage boost if it is activated.

Effect

When activated, this skill multiplies  Dragon -type damage for the entire combo.

Other damage multipliers, such as those based on match size, combo count, type matchups, or status conditions, are applied as usual. See Pokémon Shuffle → Damage for more details.

Skill level growth

Increasing skill level will increase the activation rate.
