}}'''Bagon''' (タツベイ ''Tatsubay'') is a {{Type|Dragon}} type Pokemon and is one of the 493 fictional species of Pokémon from the Pokémon Franchise - a series of video games, anime, manga, books, trading cards and other media created by Satoshi Tajiri. Bagon made its introduction as a third generation Pokémon, upon the release of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. Bagon is the pre-evolution of the very powerful Dragon Pokémon, [[Salamence]]. Bagon evolves into [[Shelgon]] starting from level 30.
 
   
==Characteristics==

==Biology==

===Physiology===
Because Bagon has such a powerful dream of flying, it often hurls itself off of high cliffs, only to tumble aimlessly to the bottom. As a result of Bagon's brave (yet very foolish) dives, its head has grown rock hard, allowing it to attack without feeling recoil. Hikers, however, have noticed the occasional unconscious Bagon, a victim of one fall too hard.

Hikers, however, have noticed the occasional unconscious Bagon, a victim of one fall too hard. They lack tails, have stubby arms, iguana ears,a yellow lower jaw with two teeth coming out, two feet which have two toes and a yellow triangular patch which seems to look like a diaper.
   
  +
===Behaviour===
With the help of Bagon's rock head, it can do a double edge without the recoil damage. It uses Brick Break to deal with ice types, but because it has poor defense, it often attacks first.
 
   
  +
===Special abilities===
==In the video games==
 
Bagon is found in Meteor Falls, specifically in an area of Meteor Falls that requires Pokémon with the moves Surf and Waterfall to get to. Bagon has average Attack and Defense stats like most Basic stage Pokémon, so it is captured mostly for its evolution. It evolves into Shelgon at level 30 and then into Salamence at level 50. Bagon has the Rock Head ability. With this ability, it does not receive recoil damage from moves such as Double-Edge.

==Evolution==
Bagon is often compared to Dratini, Larvitar and Beldum by fans of the video games to be the pre-evolution to one of the most powerful Pokémon in the game. Just as Dragonite in Pokémon Red and Blue, Tyranitar in Pokémon Gold and Silver and Metagross in the 3rd generation, Bagon's second stage evolution, [[Salamence]], has above average stats that are some of the highest in the game, even higher than Legendary Pokémon. Also, like [[Dratini]], [[Larvitar]] and [[Beldum]], Bagon's first stage evolution is also fairly good, and better than a lot of fully evolved Pokemon, thus, why all these Pokemon evolve at late levels.
