Rare Dragong

"Very few have actually witnessed it, but it's said that the Rare Dragong has limited flight capabilities! The coloration of it's plates is actually owing to the fact that they are hot to the touch. Then, it simply heats the air below it, and surfs around on the updraft. The ingenuity of Rarethereals never ceases to amaze."

Description
The Rare Dragong appears similar to the regular Dragong except it has blue skin instead of it's counterpart's pink-ish skin, 2 pairs of horns instead of ears and its knees, a mohawk hair-style on it's back and head, and red cymbals instead of yellow.

Song
Audio sample:

The Rare Dragong plays the same tune as its counterpart the Dragong.

Breeding
Rare Dragong can only be bred on Ethereal Island. And, like all other Rares, it is only available for breeding during short time periods announced in the game.

The Rare Dragong can be bred using a combination of a Mech and Poison. It can be bred using either their common versions or their Rare counterparts (although there currently isn't a Rare Reebro out there). Possible combination(s):


 * Reebro.png + Humbug.png Reebro and Humbug

It can also be bred using a combination of a regular Dragong and any other monster. When a Rare Dragong is available, breeding it with a regular Dragong is recommended.

Failed breeding results in a parent monster or Dragong. It is assumed that the Rare Dragong's chances of breeding are less than the common Dragong's. It is unknown if any factors other than Wishing Torches might affect the chance of success, such as breeding using Rare parents.

Earning Rate and Maximum Income
Earning rate is in shards per hour and depends on Happiness % (Likes increase Happiness), also each monster has a limit to how much income it can hold at a time. Increasing the monster's level increases the limit.

Feeding Monsters
Each monster needs to be fed four times before it reaches the next level. Increasing the monster's level increases the shards earned per hour. The food per level is the same for all Ethereal monsters of the same element count and can be found in this article.

Likes
Every monster has different things that they like. For every unique object that they like that's placed near the monster, the monster's happiness will increase by 25% (in other words, placing two of the same liked item near a monster will still only increase happiness by 25%).
 * Dragong
 * Fire Bush
 * Castanevine
 * Eerie Remains

Strategy
Some items to take into consideration when designing your island by strategy are number of beds for the monster, rate of income per bed, max income per bed, and time for max income to be reached.
