If you are wondering how to get Dratini, Dragonair, and Dragonite in Pokemon Legends Z-A, you've come to the right place. The latest Pokémon game is out now, and players are already out there catching the ones they want. If you are new to the game, keep in mind that unlike the previous Legends title, Pokémon Legends Z-A features a single map - Lumiose City from the Kalos region. You will find all the Pokemon within this one map.
If you want to get Dragonair and Dragonite, you won’t be able to find them on the map except in rare cases. Your goal is to find Dratini first, and only then, through evolution, can you obtain the other Pokémon in Legends Z-A.

Dratini location in Pokemon Legends Z-A:

Tips to catch Dratini in Pokemon Legends Z-A:
- If you’ve spawned at the restaurant, look to your right. You’ll see a ladder on an adjacent building. Climb the ladder and jump to the restaurant roof. Now, your job is to stay calm, as Dratini is pretty difficult to catch.
- Find cover and sneak up toward Dratini. If it’s an Alpha, it will put up a fight. You can try throwing your Pokeball, but it’s better to battle it for a while first. If it’s a normal Dratini, you can throw the Pokeball immediately, and it should be easy to catch.
