Dragaux

Enemies:
Ring
Ring Fit Trainee
The Four Masters

Dragaux is the main antagonist of Ring Fit Adventure. He battles frequently with Ring and the Ring Fit Trainee, and bodybuilds and trains extensively in between.

## Personality

Dragaux is determined to beat Ring and the trainee. He is also very overconfident, which proves to be his downfall late on. In Quizton, Ring mentions that he's very good at quizzes. Ring also says that Dragaux loves to sleep and used to joke that sleeping was his favorite part of training.

## Appearance

Dragaux is an enormous, anthropomorphic muscular dragon, with a dark body and moderately large wings, along with a large tail. Ring mentions that Dragaux used to be pretty skinny when the two first met.

## History

Prior to the events of the game, Dragaux was a resident of The Land of Night. He would eventually meet Ring and train with him, eventually constructing Dragaux Stadiums on their shared belief that everyone should be able to exercise.

However, Dragaux thought of himself as too weak, and would eventually become the host of a dark influence, causing him to start training extensively. Fearing his growing power, Ring trapped Dragaux inside him to prevent him from training, although he still managed to train in confinement, albeit "falling out of shape" inside.

Eventually, the trainee comes across Ring struggling to keep Dragaux in place. Dragaux then talks to the Trainee to free him, and they do so, and he leaves to train more comfortably.

## Battle

Over the course of the game, Dragaux uses and learns many moves.

Dragaux's main attack is to punch the Ring Fit Trainee once or twice in succession for moderate duration and damage. He may also use both hands, resulting in a longer duration and power. If he is holding a Scuttlebell+, his attack duration and power for that hand is increased.

In earlier worlds, Dragaux idles by working out. This happens less and less later into the game, eventually not idling at all in later worlds.

In A Shining Jewel from the Heavens, Dragaux introduces a crate attack, in which he jumps to the back of the arena and punches crates toward the Trainee, who must destroy the crates using Ring Presses. It sometimes heals you if you do good.

In The Nation of Sporta, Dragaux introduces a laser attack, which is countered with a Mega Ab Guard.

In Dragaux Vs. the Four Masters, Dragaux introduces a rock attack, where he continually throws giant boulders at the Trainee, who must use multiple Ring Presses to destroy them. It sometimes heals you if you do good.

In Flex Dojo, Dragaux uses a fireball attack, constantly breathing a stream of small fireballs while turning his head, which are destroyed using Ring Presses.

In Grandminion Gauntlet and El Dorago, he begins the battle balancing on a blue Puffersquish. In this state, he often idles trying to keep his balance, and when he attacks, he either makes the Puffersquish fire air or punches the Trainee, both requiring a long Ab Guard. Once he falls off, he becomes disoriented, allowing the Trainee to initiate a Rush, before **Dragaux** begins using his normal patterns. If the player drinks a Papaya Smoothie during the start of the battle, Dragaux usually falls off after the first attack, however, he will also punch Trainee with both hands at once as his first attack.

In Quizton, The Boy Who Howled Wolf, and Getting Rusty, Dragaux turns yellow, blue, and red at the start of the battle, respectively. He additionally starts using endurance moves like those used by The Four Masters. He also introduces the ability to make his eyes flash, inflicting a debuff on the Trainee. Though Dragaux does have the color coding weaknesses, Dragaux does have more health (3 bars in total)
