| First appearance | Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King |
The bobonga is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first introduced in Dragon Quest VIII.
It is an obese, purple Dragon that fills its seemingly bottomless pot with Amor seco essence.
Characteristics[edit]
Bobongas are large bipedal Dragons with bumpy purple scales, a magenta underside, and a yellow pair of eyes. The jovial dragons have small black spikes running from between their eyes to the back of their heads and they are constantly seen displaying a toothy grin. Their amor seco essence-filled jars are colored dark blue and bronze and are held at their right side with a long leather strap on their left shoulders. Much like their yellow and green-scaled cousins, the bobonga attacks by tackling enemies with their huge stomach or will take a swig from their jars to breathe out intense flames. They will take a swig from their jars to heal their injuries, as well.
