How to unlock Dratini in PokeBonk
Dratini joins your League in two steps. First, finish its League challenge; the counters add up across runs unless a goal says "in a single run":
- Have 40 members in your League.
- Defeat 3 legendary Pokemon.
Catching Dratini
Then Dratini can show up as a Wild Encounter in your next runs, 50 to 120 seconds into a zone. It runs away after 150 seconds, so weaken it and throw a Poke Ball before then. The PokeBonk unlock Pokemon guide lists every challenge.
Dratini moves in PokeBonk
Each League Pokemon has a fixed kit of four moves. Move 1 is equipped from the start; moves 2, 3 and 4 are offered as new-move cards at player levels 2, 4 and 7. A run holds three moves until you buy the 4th move slot in the Lab. Hit damage below is the move's base hit at level 1 before your stats, items and type bonus; cooldowns shrink with attack speed.
| Slot | Move | Type | Class | Shape | Unlocks | Base hit | Cooldown |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Twister | Dragon | Special | Vortex | Start | 39 | 3.06 s |
| 2 | Dragon Rage | Dragon | Special | Homing | Level 2 | 12 | 1.13 s |
| 3 | Dragon Pulse | Dragon | Special | Bolt | Level 4 | 10 | 2.05 s |
| 4 | Draco Meteor | Dragon | Special | Meteor | Level 7 | 71 | 4.08 s |
Dratini passive: Multiscale
At full HP you take -50% damage.
Twister, Dragon Rage, Dragon Pulse, and Draco Meteor match Dratini's type, so they deal 25% more damage (same-type bonus). Moves can also be learned from its learnset and from other League members of the same type, which the PokeBonk beginner guide explains.
Dratini Ultimate in PokeBonk
Dratini's Ultimate gets stronger as the line evolves: each form has its own version. Press R (Y on a controller) when the bar is full, or turn on Auto Ultimate with the Y key. The PokeBonk Ultimate guide explains how the bar charges.
| Form | Ultimate | Duration | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dratini | Dragon Cyclone | 2 s | A cyclone of draconic flame advances 16 m toward your target, dragging along and hitting. |
| Dragonair | Dragon Ring | 2.4 s | Dragonair's orbs: three dragon rings burst out of you, the weather changes to rain and two cyclones sweep the front. |
| Dragonite | Final Draco Meteor | 3.2 s | Dragonite calls down the comets: twelve Draco Meteors fall from the sky, three Dragonite swoop down and a hurricane finishes it off. |
Dratini evolution levels in PokeBonk
In PokeBonk every evolution happens by player level inside a run, whatever the main games ask for. The Dratini line evolves like this: Dratini evolves into Dragonair at level 30 and Dragonair evolves into Dragonite at level 50.
Dratini stats in runs
The game turns base stats into run stats with the share of each stat in the base stat total, so a balanced Pokemon and a lopsided one end up with different strengths. Each evolution stage adds 0.12 to the HP and damage multiplier. These are the starting values before Lab upgrades, items and vitamins:
| Form | Stage | Max HP | Armor | Speed | Physical | Special | Damage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dratini | 0 | 107 | 8.4 | 1.04x | 1.08x | 1.02x | 1x |
| Dragonair | 1 | 122 | 8.6 | 1.04x | 1.06x | 1.02x | 1.12x |
| Dragonite | 2 | 138 | 8.7 | 1.02x | 1.09x | 1.02x | 1.24x |
