Biology
Koraidon is a bipedal reptilian Pokémon. Most of its body is scarlet in color, with white accents on its abdomen, legs, and tail. Its head features a large plume and long, thin antennae; its rear has a similar, much larger plume. These plumes and antennae are white in color, and blue-purple at the base. It has yellow eyes with brown pupils, webbed feet, and blue features on its elbows and shoulders, as well as blue frills running down its neck. On its chest is a large circular protrusion which resembles a rubber tire. Its texture and black coloration is similar to the base of its tail.
Koraidon has the ability to change its form in order to travel or a action.[1]In Sprinting Build, it can move very fast using its powerful legs and wheels. Swimming Build Koraidon can float in the water by turning its throat into a flotation device and using the membrane between its feet to swim. Gliding Build Koraidon can fly by turning its twisted tendrils into wings, allowing it to glide around the sky.
Trivia
Origin
Koraidon's appearance seems to pull from various species of lizards, most notably the iguana, the gecko, the anole, and the genera Sitana and Sarada — the latter two are collectively known as fan-throated lizards. Some elements of its design also resemble parts of a motorcycle: its antennae and shoulders are similar to handlebars, and the black coloration on the base of its tail together with the protrusion on its chest resemble rubber tires.
Name origin
Koraidon may be a combination of 古来 korai (ancient), ライド raido (ride), dragon, don (Spanish for lord), and -don (common suffix in dinosaur names derived from the Ancient Greek word for tooth).
