During the group's lunchtime, Team Rocket returned disguised as an elderly couple. They pretended to take pictures but as soon as Clair allowed them to go near Dratini, their canes activated which trapped Dratini inside a net. Team Rocket weren't able to keep Dratini for long as it rocked the balloon which caused the balloon to crash and Dratini to escape. After {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Thunderbolt}} was {{m|counter}}ed by {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, Clair jumped in to protect Dratini from a stray Thunderbolt. This caused Dratini to [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Dragonair}}. Dragonair finished the villains with {{m|Twister}} combined with Gyarados's {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It led the group to Riverhead Falls where Clair performed her ritual.

Dragonair reappeared in ''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]'' where Clair sent it out to navigate her and the group to cross the [[Dragon's Den]] to get to the [[Dragon Holy Land]]. It tried to stop Team Rocket from stealing the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}.

In ''[[EP253|Great Bowls of Fire!]]'', the Dragon Holy Land was in flames and Clair sent out Dragonair to help put out the fire with {{m|Rain Dance}}. With the fire out, Dragonair fought a {{m|Outrage|rampaging}} {{p|Dragonite}} in an attempt to calm it along with {{AP|Charizard}} and Pikachu. It was able to calm Dragonite by creating thunder clouds with the help of Pikachu's {{m|Thunder}}.

Clair used it in the Gym battle against Ash in ''[[EP254|Better Eight Than Never]]''. With its speed and power, it defeated Ash's Pikachu easily. With a wide range of moves like {{m|Dragon Rage}}, it proved to be a tough challenge for Charizard as well. But finally it was able to defeat Dragonair with {{m|Seismic Toss}} earning Ash the {{badge|Rising}}.
Clair used Dragonair as her final Pokémon in the Gym battle against Ash in ''[[EP254|Better Eight Than Never]]'' after two of her Pokémon were defeated. It fought against Ash's Pikachu and managed to defeat him easily with {{m|Hyper Beam}} with the help of its speed and power. Dragonair fought Charizard next as Ash's final Pokémon. It proved to be a tough challenge for Charizard as well as it kept on dodging Charizard's attacks by diving underwater. Dragonair also had a wide range of moves like {{m|Dragon Rage}} which also gave Charizard problems. Ash had an idea by having Charizard evaporate the pool water to prevent Dragonair from hiding in there to dodge attacks. Despite doing so, Dragonair resorted to attacking and defending. Charizard was finally able to defeat Dragonair with a flaming {{m|Seismic Toss}} earning Ash the {{badge|Rising}}.


Dragonair also appeared along with Clair in ''[[EP255|Why? Why Not!]]'' where it helped Ash find his missing Gym Badges which were stolen by Team Rocket.

==Personality and characteristics==
Dragonair, as a Dratini, was a friendly Pokémon during her debut appearance. Dratini was not yet experienced with Pokémon battles as Clair would often protect it. However, when {{TRT}} attacked Clair and went after Dratini, it evolved into Dragonair to save both of them and caused Clair to want to use it in battles. Dragonair managed to hold its own in battles as it managed to do well handling its evolved form, [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Charizard}}.

When the [[Dragon Holy Land]] was on fire, Dragonair went out of its way to put the fire out and to protect Ash's Pokémon from a rampaging Dragonite. It even helped calm the Dragonite from its rage. Dragonair had good swimming and flying skills which became useful during the Gym battle with Ash.
