| “ | Lightning crackles in those dark eyes. It may be warmer than its icy kin, but you should still beware of the Electric Dragon! | ” | — Tough Quest flavor text from Super Kirby Clash |
Electric Dragon is a yellow lightning-powered alternative to Ice Dragon first encountered in Super Kirby Clash. The Electric Dragon has the same proportions and battle style as its icy counterpart, but its dorsal fins are shaped into lightning bolts, and it has yellow lightning-bolt-shaped marks on its belly as well as white marks on its tail. The Electric Dragon is faced in five different Quests, and is first encountered in the Empyrean. Later on, it can be found alongside Ice Dragon and Flame Galboros to form the Super-rank Team Kaiju Trio.
Attacks[edit]
| “ | The dragon of the lightning is back! It can store a million volts in its dorsal fin before discharging it all from its tail! | ” | — Super Quest flavor text from Super Kirby Clash |
The Electric Dragon is effectively a lightning-based counterpart to the Ice Dragon, and as such, both of them share essentially the same move-set. The only major difference between the two is that the Electric Dragon's attacks create thunderbolts instead of icicles, and it emits a static field instead of breathing frost. Unlike some other enemy variants, it cannot be explicitly said which of them is more dangerous.
The following are all of the Electric Dragon's attacks in Super Kirby Clash. Note that attack names are conjectural:

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Attack | Description | Variants | Notes | |
| とっしん Charge |
The Electric Dragon picks a target Kirby and starts running after him for a while. It will turn around if that Kirby manages to get behind it. | The Electric Dragon may vary how long it is willing to run. | ||
| テイルズホバー Tails Hover |
The Electric Dragon hops into the air, and floats for a while as it waggles its tail before landing. | The length of the jump can vary. | ||
| Spark Breath | The Electric Dragon breathes a cone of sparks from its mouth, wiggling its tail as it does so. | The Electric Dragon may hold out this attack for longer, or move while using it. | ||
| Lightning Ball Toss | The Electric Dragon conjures a ball of lightning and tosses it forward. These balls of lightning can be destroyed with an attack. | The number of balls created can vary. | The electric balls can be crouched under. | |
| ヒッププレス Hip Press |
The Electric Dragon jumps in the air and then pounds the ground. Upon landing, a series of lightning bolts strike the ground spaced evenly from each-other. These bolts are telegraphed in advance by beams of light. | The positioning of the bolts can vary. | The Electric Dragon may start with a Tails Hover before transitioning straight into this attack. | |
| Spark Cutter | The Electric Dragon spits out a series of electrified cutter boomerangs from its mouth. The last ones are extra large, and can push back a guarding Kirby. | The number of blades can vary. | ||
| Discharge | The Electric Dragon releases a large static field around itself, preventing any Kirby getting close for a while. | In its Toughest and Super-rank battles, the Electric Dragon will slowly move forward while using this move. | ||
