Dramon

Dramon-species (Dragon Monster Species) refers to Dragon-species Digimon that may or may not have the suffix "-dramon" 「ドラモン」 in their name. Dracomon is said to be the ancestor of all Dramon Digimon[1] and those that bear the "-dramon" suffix in their name must possess Dragon-factor data in their Digicore; the higher the percentage of that data, the more the shape of their body becomes a Dragon-type[2]. Also, the Greymon-species Digimon are said to be some kind of subspecies of the Dramon-species[3][4]. While often extremely powerful, they share a similar weakness in that they are affected by Dramon Killer weapons.
