5.53 min. | 4.87 user rating		 I was looking for some cheats for my emulator and I came upon Dragonair as a starter. I love Dragonair so I decided, Hey, Why Not? I disabled the code when I choose my pokeball.
1.52 min. | 3.28 user rating		 This video is made by me, but the pictures are not. So stop commenting on how I edited the animals, someone else photoshopped them. If you don't know what photoshop means, it means taking a photo on the computer, and adding details to make it look fake, like sometimes people photoshop celebrity's heads to naked porn stars, and post it on google, please do not ask how I know this.
