I think it would be far better to identify the 'electric dragon' meaning through identifying the fragments - its the same as the English prefixes, infixes and suffixes. You can't disregard a meaning only because its not in the dictionary - all Japanese and English fragments are not in the dictionary and yet are used to form Pokemon names.
Could it have been inspired by a naked sheep? File:Ani475MS.gif Agent 448δ | DP | ☆File:Ani282MS.gif 11:12, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
