the new za trailer showed the new mega evolution dragonite is getting and most of the community is divided with opinions about the addition of the head wings,are they based on anything? or original
So in the trailer they mentioned that Dragonite is supposed to have a slightly more dragonair look. Of course you can see this by the wings and pearl at the end of mega dragonite’s tail. So basically dragonite’s wings are based off of dragonair. However, dragonair likely got its wings from Greek mythology. The Greek god Hermes has similar wings on his helmet and boots. https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Dragonair_(Pokémon) you can see Bulbapedia‘s take if you scroll down to trivia.
