Template:Enemy The Ryu Dragon is a Dream Eater that appears in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
Design
The Ryu Dragon's design is based on a European dragon.
Etymology
The Ryu Dragon's name is derived from the word "ryū," which means "dragon" in Japanese. Its dispositions are named after dragon-like enemies from the Final Fantasy series.
Strategy
The Ryu Dragon, as one of the late-game Dream Eaters, tends to be one of the stronger ones. It is able to inflict heavy damage with slicing attacks that allow it to dash past its targets.The Ryu Dragon is also able to breathe fire while in mid-air and launch flame projectiles, as well as inflicting a version of Doom. Rare Nightmare versions of this Dream Eater are stronger than regular Nightmares, but due to the Ryu Dragon's tendency to favor fire-based attacks, it has a notable weakness to Blizzard-based commands. These will freeze the Ryu Dragon solid, leaving it vulnerable to other attacks.
