The Yellow Dragon, also known as the Yellow D or Y.Dragon, is an enemy in Final Fantasy IV. It is extremely rare, and as such, drops a variety of rare items, including valuable Sirens that can be used to search for other elusive monsters. The player can find one by waiting for the last Trap Door in the Sealed Cave to summon it when weakened, and another two by using a Siren on the fourth floor of the Cave of Trials. In the Pixel Remaster, it can be found in the southern-most areas of the northwest continent of the Underworld. Using a Siren will guarantee a spawn of a Mystery Egg which Edge can steal from (do not hit the egg, there is a chance you could kill it). This will hatch the egg into a Yellow Dragon. In the GBA version, the ones hatched from Mystery Eggs are not counted in the bestiary.

Etymology[]
A dragon is a legendary creature, typically with serpentine or reptilian traits, which is featured in the myths of many cultures.
Chromatic dragon is a classification of dragon in the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons who are typically of evil alignment, in contrast to the metallic dragons, and their queen is Tiamat. White, black, green, blue and red dragons are the classic chromatic dragons. Final Fantasy has derived a lot of influence from D&D, especially the early series. Yellow dragons are solitary and secretive, and among the most agile of all dragons. Their breath weapon is a watery blast that contains a corrosive sodium compound.
