Draggadon is a character first appearing in the game Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. He is the king of an isolated volcano called Pyropuff Peak and is protective of his territory.
History
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
Draggadon appears as a recurring boss in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. He is fought in Episode 1-10: The King of Pyropuff Peak, Episode 2-9: Draggadon's Revenge, and Bonus Episode-11: Mummy-Me at Pyropuff Peak. When Captain Toad is chasing Wingo who kidnapped Toadette, he accidentally comes across Pyropuff Peak. Draggadon attacks him, thinking him to be an intruder, but after the fight realizes that he was innocent, and allows him to ride on his head as the two conquer hordes of enemies. Toadette in her pursuit of Wingo also ends up at Pyropuff Peak, which results in the same situation playing. Once again, Toadette befriends him, and they conquer even more enemies.
Unlike Wingo, Draggadon is not battled directly. Captain Toad and Toadette must avoid his attacks to the end of the level by hiding behind walls, and at the end, knock a pillar on his head. He is then knocked unconscious, and the Toads collect the Power Star.
As an ally, the player is able to control Draggadon in an interstitial page. Toadette will ride on him and command him to do various moves. By pressing 
, Draggadon will breathe fire that can break blocks and destroy enemies. He can also roar with 
that can shatter Used Blocks which are normally unaffected by flames. He raises and lowers by moving the left analog stick.
A Gold Draggadon also appears in a later episode, as the king of the Golden Realm. Like Draggadon, Captain Toad must also fight Gold Draggadon as boss, although fireballs will move faster and the lava will rise quicker.
Paper Mario: Color Splash
Draggadon will also make an appearance in Paper Mario: Color Splash. He appears as a fossil on a mountain in Marmalade Valley; however, after Mario retrieves the orange Big Paint Star, the fossil is covered with a coat of orange paint, causing it to come to life. Like Captain Toad in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Mario is also able to ride and control Draggadon over lava, this time by suspending a burger attached to a fishing rod in front of him as bait. While controlling Draggadon, he can destroy small platforms, and if Mario swings the rod upwards, Draggadon will leap up from the lava, allowing Mario to collect any items that are out of reach.[1]
