Gold Dragon (Final Fantasy IV 3D)

The Gold Dragon, also known as the King-Ryu or GoldDragon, is an enemy from Final Fantasy IV.

Battle
It is one of the most powerful dragons, and has an affinity with Thunder. Gold Dragons can be farmed for HP-increasing Golden Apples in the PS versions on up. They counter any attack with Entangle, which has a chance to inflict Paralyze on a character, and can also attack using the deadly Blitz move, which can take off one tenth of a character's max HP each hit. They are not immune to Tornado.

They can appear alone, in groups of two, or one with a Silver Dragon.

Strategy
Using Tornado and then using a simple physical attack will defeat them quickly. Bahamut and Leviathan also work well against them.
