A Reddit user going by the nickname Kampy5567 shared an original artwork suggesting Paradox forms for Dragonair and Dragonite inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, respectively called Winged Wyrm and Iron Champion. This idea of what a Paradox version of Dragonair and Dragonite could look like was originally shared by a fellowPokemonlover known as Onduregion, an artist who regularly creates concepts of alternative versions of well-known Pokemon. Not only did Onduregion come up with the design of these Paradox Pokemon, but they also provided details as to their types, moves, abilities, statistics, Pokedex entries, and even the appearance of theshiny versions of these Pokemon.

In the comments to this post, avidPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers discussed the abilitiesof these Paradox forms for Dragonair and Dragonite and which pocket monsters would be able to defeat them in battle. Others complimented the appearance of these Paradox Pokemon, stating that they would love to see them added inPokemon Scarlet and Violet. Some eagled-eyed Pokemon fans noticed that the nickname for the Paradox form of Dragonite, called Iron Champion, was over the name limit of 12 characters and should therefore be changed to something shorter like Iron Force or Iron Knight.
