{{DISPLAYTITLE:Thunder Dragon (''The After Years'')}} {{infobox enemy | name = Thunder Dragon | release = IVTAY | image = <gallery> FF4PSP Thunder Dragon.png|PSP Thunder Dragon from FFIV GBA sprite.png|Wii </gallery> | japanese = らいりゅう | romaji = Rairyū | location = '''Ceodore''': [[Mist Cave]]<br/>'''Kain''': [[Challenge Dungeon (The After Years)|Challenge Dungeon]] - Underground Cavern<br/>'''Crystals''': [[Subterrane]] }} '''Thunder Dragon''' is an enemy in ''[[Final Fantasy IV: The After Years]]''. It follows a strict pattern of Attack → Lightning, and then loop this pattern. To prevent as much damage as possible, the player needs to defeat it before it takes its second turn in the battle. It is recommended to inflict [[Slow (status)|Slow]] or [[Stop (status)|Stop]] on it if the party is under[[level]]ed, or use items that do so if there are no Mages present. Bringing equipment with resistance to [[Lightning (element)|Lightning-elemental]] attacks is also helpful, as the dragon's main means of offense is the powerful [[Lightning (ability)|Lightning]] ability, which damages the entire party for a significant amount of HP. == Stats == {{infobox enemy stats IVTAY | sec 1 = #136 | wii = Thunder Dragon | 1 hp = 3000 | 1 strength = 72 | 1 defense = 3 | 1 magic = 3 | 1 magic defense = 20 | 1 location = '''Ceodore''': [[Mist Cave]] | 1 gil = 800 | 1 exp = 4800 | 1 drop 1 = [[Heavenly Wrath (The After Years)|Heavenly Wrath]] | 1 drop 2 = [[Silver Hourglass (The After Years)|Silver Hourglass]] | 1 drop 3 = [[Silver Apple (The After Years)|Silver Apple]] | 1 drop 4 = [[Blue Tail (The After Years)|Blue Tail]] | 1 abilities = [[Lightning (ability)|Lightning]] | 1 dragon = true | 1 projectile = Weak | 1 poison = Immune | 1 blind = Immune | 1 silence = Immune | 1 pig = Immune | 1 mini = Immune | 1 toad = Immune | 1 petrify = Immune | 1 death = Immune | 1 berserk = Immune | 1 confuse = Immune | 1 sleep = Immune | 1 paralyze = Immune | 1 curse = Immune | 1 gradual petrify = Immune | 1 lightning = Absorb | 1 info = Only appears during a full moon.
