Seasonal Dragon

Seasonal Dragons were released along various dates and are one of the few dragons to possess different forms depending on the physical environment of Valkemare. The first Seasonal dragon to be released was the Summer variant, followed by Autumn, Winter and lastly Spring. As the name suggests, Seasonal dragon's variants follow the different seasons of the planet: a different colored adult and hatchling can be caught for each Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

The variant of the dragon depends only on the current season, therefore parents of one seasonal color can sire offspring of different seasonal colors. Lineages containing different variants of the Seasonal dragon are quite popular amongst players as a result.

Q: When do the seasonal eggs switch to the next season? A: The seasonal dragon eggs always switch on the solstices and equinoxes of a given season. Since this varies from year to year, it is recommended that you look up a calendar such as this one to figure out when a specific season begins in the northern hemisphere.

Egg
"The markings on this egg match the weather outside."

Hatchling
"Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It perfectly depicts summer/autumn/winter/spring weather."

Mature Hatchling
"Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It perfectly depicts summer/autumn/winter/spring weather. And look! It's grown its wings! It must be close to maturing."

Adult
"Seasonal dragons take on the characteristics of the season they are born in. Thus, eggs that are laid in spring match the pink flowers and green buds of spring, and those that are laid in the summer grow to depict the bright green of the forest trees and the yellow of the sun. Eggs laid in autumn display the bright colors of leaves falling from trees, and those that are laid during winter take on the appearance of the icy snow."

Trivia

 * Some of the dragon's sprites were changed before their release and differ from the originals that the artist submitted.
 * Before the Dimorphism change on March 26, 2010 both genders of these dragons appeared as the male sprites.
 * During the Christmas 2011 Dragon Dress Up, the Spring and Autumn hatchling sprites were initially swapped during a glitch. This was quickly fixed before the end of the event.
