Most Dragon-type Pokémon have high {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} and are further blessed with wide movepools to complement this. Even though Dragon-type moves are only [[Damage modification#super effective|super effective]] against Dragon-type Pokémon, the only type that resists Dragon is {{t|Steel}}, giving them good use of their [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]]. Furthermore, Prior to Gen VI, the combination of Dragon and {{t|Fire}} had {{p|Heatran|almost}} unresisted coverage. This is balanced out by the fact that {{t|Fairy}} is completely immune to Dragon type attacks.

However, many Dragon-types can use moves like {{m|Iron Head}} and {{m|Sludge Wave}} to threaten Fairy-type Pokemon.
