The '''Dragon's Den''' (Japanese: '''りゅうのあな''' ''Dragon's Den'') is a location in the [[Johto]] city of {{ci|Blackthorn}}.
The '''Dragon's Den''' (Japanese: '''りゅうのあな''' ''Dragon's Den'') is a location in [[Blackthorn City]] in the [[Johto]] [[region]].

The Dragon's Den is inaccessible before defeating [[Clair]] in the [[Blackthorn Gym]], as it is blocked off by a man in front of the cave, and then it must be traversed to finally obtain the {{badge|Rising}}.
The Dragon's Den is inaccessible before defeating [[Clair]] in the [[Blackthorn Gym]], as it is blocked off by a man in front of the cave. After defeating Clair, it must be traversed to obtain the {{badge|Rising}}.


In {{game|Crystal}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, several {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can be found in the cave. The [[Master of the Dragon Tamer Clan]] is located here, and he will quiz the player on their attitude towards and treatment of their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. If the {{player}} gives compassionate answers, the player will be rewarded with a {{p|Dratini}} that knows {{m|Extreme Speed}}.
In {{game|Crystal}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, several {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can be found in the cave. The '''Dragon Shrine''' (Japanese: '''りゅうのほこら''' ''Dragon {{wp|Hokora|Shrine}}'') is located in the south end (blocked off by a {{OBP|whirlpool|obstacle}}), where the {{OBP|Master|Dragon Tamer clan}} will quiz the {{player}} on their attitude towards and treatment of their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. After the quiz is completed, they will be rewarded with a {{p|Dratini}}. If they got all the answers right the first time, the Dratini will know {{m|Extreme Speed|ExtremeSpeed}}.


{{ga|Silver}} can be found here contemplating his training on {{DL|Days of the week|Tuesday}}s and {{DL|Days of the week|Thursday}}s. Clair will visit to reward the player with the Rising Badge she refused to award in the Blackthorn Gym, as well as {{TM|24|DragonBreath}}{{sup/2|GSC}} or {{TM|59|Dragon Pulse}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}. This requires fulfilling the task described above. In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, where the '''Dragon Shrine''' (Japanese: '''りゅうのほこら''' ''Dragon {{wp|Hokora|Shrine}}'') is closed and everything related to it is unavailable, Clair will instead give the Rising Badge to the player after they collect the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}.

In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, where the Dragon Shrine is closed and everything related to it is unavailable, Clair will instead give the Rising Badge to the player after they collect the [[Dragon Fang]]. If the Dragon Fang from Dragon's Den is not obtained, but the player has one anyways, usually from trading from another Trainer, Clair will call the player a cheater and refuse to give the badge.


In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, after the player battles Silver at [[Mt. Moon]], they can participate in a [[Multi Battle]] with him against [[Lance]] and Clair here. Also, in these games, if the player receives the Rising Badge from Clair and then leaves the Dragon's Den with {{m|Dig}}, {{m|Teleport}}, or an [[Escape Rope]], then they must return to her Gym in order to collect the TM.

Pokémon world locations

The Dragon's Den (Japanese: りゅうのあな Dragon's Den) is a location in Blackthorn City in the Johto region.

In the games

The Dragon's Den is inaccessible before defeating Clair in the Blackthorn Gym, as it is blocked off by a man in front of the cave. After defeating Clair, it must be traversed to obtain the Rising Badge.

In Pokémon Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver, several Trainers can be found in the cave. The Dragon Shrine (Japanese: りゅうのほこら Dragon Shrine) is located in the south end (blocked off by a whirlpool), where the Master will quiz the player on their attitude towards and treatment of their Pokémon. After the quiz is completed, they will be rewarded with a Dratini. If they got all the answers right the first time, the Dratini will know ExtremeSpeed.

Silver can be found here contemplating his training on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Clair will visit to reward the player with the Rising Badge she refused to award in the Blackthorn Gym, as well as TM24 (DragonBreath)GSC or TM59 (Dragon Pulse)HGSS. This requires completing the quiz described above. In Pokémon Gold and Silver, where the Dragon Shrine is closed and everything related to it is unavailable, Clair will instead give the Rising Badge to the player after they collect the Dragon Fang. If the Dragon Fang from Dragon's Den is not obtained, but the player has one anyways, usually from trading from another Trainer, Clair will call the player a cheater and refuse to give the badge.

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, after the player battles Silver at Mt. Moon, they can participate in a Multi Battle with him against Lance and Clair here. Additionally, in these games, if the player receives the Rising Badge from Clair and then leaves the Dragon's Den with Dig, Teleport, or an Escape Rope, then they must return to her Gym in order to collect the TM.

Master's quiz

In Pokémon Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver, it is possible to obtain a Dratini with ExtremeSpeed, a move it cannot normally learn in Generation II and IV.

It is a prize for correctly answering the questions given by the Master in the Dragon Shrine. If any wrong answers are given, the player will still receive a Dratini but it will have Leer instead of ExtremeSpeed.

Question Correct answer(s) Wrong answer(s)
What are Pokémon to you? PalC / AllyHGSS

What helps you to win battles? Strategy

What is most important for raising Pokémon? Love

Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. Which is more important? Both ToughC / StrengthHGSS
WeakC / WeaknessHGSS

After completing the quiz, the player will then need to receive TM24 (DragonBreath)C or TM59 (Dragon Pulse)HGSS from Clair. After this, returning to the Master will result in him giving the Dratini to the player.

Layout

Of note is that Pokémon Crystal's redesign of the Dragon's Den added Headbutt trees to the back of the Dragon Shrine. Despite this, no Pokémon can be found hiding in them. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver's redesign, the Headbutt trees are absent, much like in its original design from Pokémon Gold and Silver.

In the anime

The Dragon's Den in the anime

The Dragon's Den appeared in Fangs For Nothin', where it was reduced to a series of tunnels leading to the Dragon Holy Land. The Dragon Holy Land takes over for the Dragon's Den's other roles in the anime, including the location of the Dragon Shrine and the Dragon Fang.

In the manga

The Dragon's Den in Pokémon Adventures

Pokémon Adventures

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

The Dragon's Den appeared in Debonaire Dragonair. Clair encountered and battled Suicune here, but failed to defeat and catch it. According to Clair, only the Pokémon living on the site with her family are allowed here.

Trivia

  • Dragon's Den is the only location where the player obtains a Gym Badge that is not a Gym.
  • In Pokémon Crystal, if the player whites out due to poison damage while still inside the Dragon Shrine after receiving the Rising Badge, they can return to the Blackthorn Gym to receive the reward TM from Clair. However, if the player then returns to Dragon's Den and stands on the tile directly in front of the Dragon Shrine's door, Clair will appear again and give the player another TM24.
