| '''Dragoneels''' are gigantic eels that make their debut in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. These enemies have angry closed eyes that resemble those of a [[Porcupuffer]], and large zigzag-shaped red jaws, the upper one having a pink lip. Also, they have long sleek bodies with a long purple crest running along their red backs and their underside is white with pale purple polka dots, and a long purple fin along their back. Dragoneel's wing-like pectoral fins and three-lobed caudal fin are similar to those of [[Cheep Cheep]]s. They closely resemble [[Gobblegut]] (and [[Fracktail]]) and behave similar to the [[Snorkel Snake]] as they try to encircle players with their bodies; in fact, their internal file name in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' suggests they may be directly based on the Snorkel Snake. | | '''Dragoneels''' are gigantic sea serpents that make their debut in the [[Wii U]] title, ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''.

| | In the game, they attack by chasing the player's character. They can only be defeated with a [[star]]. Dragoneels appear in the [[Sparkling Waters]] level, [[Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto]].

| In the game, they attack by chasing the player's character. They can only be defeated with a [[Super Star]], and doing so causes it to spit out several [[coin]]s. Dragoneels appear in the [[Sparkling Waters]] level, [[Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto]] and {{world-link|coin|5|World Coin-5 (New Super Mario Bros. U)}}. It follows the player throughout the underwater course, while the players must avoid the monster. Throwing [[fireball]]s at its head will slow it down, but throwing them at its body will speed it up. If the player swims behind a Dragoneel and remains out of reach, the Dragoneel will begin circling the player. In a multiplayer game, it will go after the player furthest to the right of the screen. The Dragoneel is also capable of swimming through walls and other objects. | |
| | |
| A shorter, purple-blue variant of Dragoneels, appearing only in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', can be found in Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto. Only two purple Dragoneels appear in a small section with coins and a [[Star Coin]]. They have the same strategies that Dragoneels have; they follow the player(s) while they must avoid them. However, they make tighter turns, and are significantly slower. Throwing fireballs at their heads will make them move gradually slower.
| |
| | |
| Dragoneels reappear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' in the [[Sparkling Waters]] level, [[Dragoneel Depths]] where two of them chase the player. In this game, they can defeat enemies, such as [[Urchin]]s and [[Big Urchin]]s, by running into them.
| |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', Dragoneels make a cameo in the background of the vertical section of underwater levels in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style. They do not appear as course parts.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===''Mario Party'' series===
| | A [[Baby Dragoneel|purple-colored version of the Dragoneel]] also exists in the same level. They are shorter and make tighter turns, and are significantly slower. They only appear in a small location where a hidden [[Star Coin]] is found by going through a [[pipe]]. |
| ====''Mario Party 10''====
| |
| Dragoneels host the [[Dragoneel Treasure]] events in [[Whimsical Waters]] in ''[[Mario Party 10]]''.

| Dragoneels reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'' in the minigames [[Rattle and Hmmm]], where one may appear during the final round, and more notably in [[Rumble Fishing (Super Mario Party)|Rumble Fishing]], where players each have to reel out a Dragoneel in hopes of finding the longest Dragoneel to win the minigame.

| A Dragoneel appears as a boss in the [[Dragoneel Slayers]] minigame in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. In the minigame, it creates whirlpools that players need to avoid, and can be damaged when it leaps out of the water by throwing [[Green Shell]]s at it.
