Draco Meteor (Japanese: りゅうせいぐん Dragon Meteor Cluster) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation IV.
Draco Meteor can only be tutored to Dragon-type Pokémon. This means that Pokémon like Charizard and Gyarados, despite their dragon-like characteristics, cannot be taught the move. Similar to Blast Burn, Frenzy Plant, and Hydro Cannon, the Pokémon that the move is to be taught to must have a high happiness rating.
Effect
Draco Meteor inflicts damage, and lowers the user's Special Attack by two stages afterward.

Trivia
- Smeargle is one of only four non-Dragon-type Pokémon able to learn Draco Meteor, due to Sketch. The other three are an Arceus that doesn't hold a Draco Plate (it needs to be holding the plate when it learns the move), a Horsea in which both of its parents knew the move when the Horsea hatched, and a Seadra that evolved from the aforementioned Horsea.
- Mew, though repeatedly said on the Pokédex to be able to learn any move, is not able to learn Draco Meteor because it can only be taught to Template:Type2 Pokémon.
- Because of this, all Pokémon who can learn Draco Meteor by move tutor receive STAB (except Arceus when the Draco Plate is removed).
