>>51576044If you look at the original Dragonite you can see how it was a lot less barney being much more serpentine with an elongated tail and skinny neck. You can see dratini has a matching stripped belly. They all have the same headshape with bulbous snouts. Moreover there's a beta dragonair that has antenna similar to dragonite.
Concept wise they are based on the imugi which is a snake-like protodragon that lives at sea but when it lives to a thousand years it finally turns into a real dragon.
