I was looking at the Picdex, and I noticed . Is it me, or is it that after gold came out, Dragonite began to look more and more like a weakling? Take a look at the Red and Blue sprite: you got a pretty kick ass dragon there.
Then you see gold. Now you want to cuddle it.
I don't like Dragonite anymore because of that. Anyone else ever think about it?

I like dragonite better as a cute pokemon more than fierce. It suits him. We need at least one calm puredragon type, cause If I came across on the street Id piss in my pants and probably die of fear. But Id wanna pet..

I'm sure Dragonite was created to be cute and cuddly, but at the same time, protective of the trainer that raised it. Have you seen Pokemon: The First Movie? Dragonite doesn't look fierce or anything. He looks gentle. Also, they wouldn't have made a Dragonite plushie if he wasn't so cute. I think you should just accept the fact that hes probably more cute then he is fierce

Dragonites still not weak. No dragon type can be too weak. And it can learn some real nice moves. It has gotten a bit weaker, but it's still a good pokemon.

This seems to be more suitable in General Pokemon Discussion, but since you're referring to the change Dragonite underwent from RBY to GSC it's fine I guess.
Anyway, I think tha Dragonite has always been meant to be gentle and cute, but incredibly strong under that deceptive behaviour. So I don't see what's wrong with it becoming slightly cuter in GSC

I would rather see a strong and mean Dragonite then a cuddly one... But, Since im used to seing dragonite like this, im already used to it. I think all pokemon should defferent expression's, Maybe the females could be nice and the males could be mean.
So I do agree with Nfeild21.

Amen to that, brother! I love the male Pokemon, and they should totally be meaner looking! Give me male Pokemon over female anyday (By the way, I'm a chick )
And as for that Dragonite, I think it only got cuter because as the games progressed, they said to themselves "Oh! We already have a mean dragon! We'd better make this one nice again."

Lol. I thought that pee your pants thing was funny, but I second that. I'd probably pee myself if i saw either, though.
Also, I don't exactly like Dragonite, but I think that it's cute and cuddly appearance is just a big feint. It's powerful, but it doesn't look it.

I forgot to put in that I like Dragonair better than Dragonite, because third fave dragon is a Lindworm (with Frost and Wyvern coming in first and second).
, , , and are some of my fave Dragons.

Looks can be deceiving. Altaria looks cute too.

I think Dragonite is supposed to be cute, but very powerful. I do kinda want to pet it though...

Just read the Pokedex entry. It says it is a kindhearted Pokemon.

Just think of Dragonite as a super strong Pokemon, no matter how he looks. He looks nice! I HATE IT! *sniff*
Anyway, just because he looks bad, well, Lance uses 3 of them, so how bad can they be?
