Official name?[edit]
Is the name official? --Grandy02 15:27, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
- I don't think it is; it sounds fairly generic, and a google search for it only brings up the Super Mario Wiki (and the German Mario Wikia, but they probably took the name from here). The manual does not reveal the name of the boss and neither does the game itself, to my knowledge; I couldn't find an official guide. I cannot check the official site, unfortunately, as it remains on the loading screen forever once it reaches 100%.--vellidragon 16:15, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
- Okay, I added a template. However, I'm not even sure if "Dragon Kremling" is a good conjectural name. Nothing says that the dragon itself is a Kremling, it gets simply awakened by the Kritter with the power of the Crystal Banana (the dragon seemed to trapped in that stone). The Kremling seems to control the dragon. --Grandy02 12:05, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
Possible name?[edit]
Doing some digging, Japanese websites seem to almost universally refer to this boss as "Draglinger" (ドラグリンガー), though I unfortunately can't seem to find a source for this. Does anyone know if the Japanese version lists boss names not in the English version or if there's a Japanese guide of some sort the name may have come from? I'm inclined to believe it's real, but don't want to move the page without a source. As a side note, the Robot Kremling Head is called "Junklomp/Junkromp" (ジャンクロンプ) in the same sources.

- A brief update, some googling revealed there IS a Japanese strategy guide, which is almost definitely where these names come from. However, I can't find pictures of the pages in question. Not sure what to do now. BubbleRevolution (talk) 02:59, October 7, 2022 (EDT)
