(At no point is Xenlon referred to as female, nor its gender brought up. Even in-battle text refers to Xenlon as an "it." Referring to Xenlon as a she as the last editor did is pure fanwank and has no place.)

This divine dragon is by far the strongest foe in the game, and will make Zoma look like a chump. She has immunity to every status debuff, and even Drain Magic, so the only way to approach this fight is with a full frontal assault with Oomph and Falcon Blades. Her specific action attacks like chewing on a character will ignore defence, so don't even bother with Kabuff. Instead, keep Acceleratele up at all times to make life easier for healers. Also, because Xenlon only has one spell and an equal chance to use any of his actions, Insulatele is a better idea than Bounce.

On the bright side, Xenlon has no resistances to offensive spells, meaning that if the hero has enough MP, you can cast Kazap over and over again to whittle down her health. Magi and Sages should only cast Kafrizzle when healing and buffing have already been covered for the turn.

This divine dragon is by far the strongest foe in the game, and will make Zoma look like a chump. It has immunity to every status debuff, and even Drain Magic, so the only way to approach this fight is with a full frontal assault with Oomph and Falcon Blades. Xenlon's specific action attacks like chewing on a character will ignore defence, so don't even bother with Kabuff. Instead, keep Acceleratele up at all times to make life easier for healers. Also, because Xenlon only has one spell and an equal chance to use any of its actions, Insulatle is a better idea than Bounce.

On the bright side, Xenlon has no resistances to offensive spells, meaning that if the hero has enough MP, you can cast Kazap over and over again to whittle down its health. Magi and Sages should only cast Kafrizzle when healing and buffing have already been covered for the turn.

Xenlon can be synthesized by combining four monsters: an alabast dragon, a boreal serpent, an ethereal serpent and Orochi. Xenlon is a Rank X monster, taking up two monster spaces.

Note

  • In Dragon Quest III, due to Monster Medals being saved automatically, the player can save wishes by defeating Xenlon and getting all of their sets of medals, then resetting the game.
  • This character is likely a tribute to Akira Toriyama's Dragon God Shenron. Not only do they look extremely similar (the only difference being Shenron's glowing red eyes), they also grant wishes.
