Grapple Grounder

  Grapple Grounder's are very fast, springy, and dangerous Boulder Class dragons. It has a snake-like in appearance, with four long skinny legs and a long body. The Grapple Grounder is ready to fight any dragon it meets, and it seems that this dragon shoots pulse blasts similar to a Night Fury.

It's diet consists of fish and ham. 

Grapple Grounder's coil itself around its enemies until they beg for mercy, but most of the time they never receive it. 

The Grapple Grounder is usually red, with golden or yellow spots or rings on its body. It has four horns and its body is long and slender. The tail is shaped like an arrow and it has the larger wings than other Boulder Class dragons. If you want to beat a Grapple Grounder in wrestling it's weakness is it has slow attacks and can't dish out attacks in a fast amount of time, making them vulnerable to ships to fire. When this dragon becomes restless and has nothing left to fight it might tie itself up in knots. This dragon doesn't know when to call quits. 

Titan winged Grapple Grounders are dark gray with black stripes. They have green wings and a green outlined arrow-shaped tail. There are small blue spots on their knees as well. They developed a pair of smaller horns, as well as grew more spines along its neck to the tail, which are also sharper and smaller. 

This dragon is described to be the wrestler of the dragon kingdom. Much like large snakes like the Boa and Anaconda, they wrap their elongated body around their prey, suffocating and snapping their bones. 

The Grapple Grounder can shoot a light-blue pulse ball, possibly of electricity or plasma of a sort. It can shoot multiple of the blue orbs at a time, but at a sacrifice of size. The balls have a somewhat magnetic field, drawing towards larger objects than it (ie, opponents or victims), however the more decreased the size the stronger the force is. This information could also infer it might be electromagnetic. If a Grapple Grounder takes a deep enough breath, or charges it long enough, the fire will come out as a big blackish sphere that explodes impressively upon impact, almost fatal. Its bomb contains Magnesium gel. In addition, the Grapple Grounder launches fireballs at its opponents and are said to create beautiful waves in the sky as they shoot. 

This species is jumpy and aggressive, described to be merciless to its enemies. It is also known to lurk in the dark, however it is unknown if it has night vision or something to help him orientate in the dark. Being a snake-like dragon, the Grapple Grounder is very agile. It quickly twists and coils around its victims.
