{{Nihongo|'''Changkey Dragon'''|チャンキードラゴン|Chankī Doragon}} is the sub-boss of [[Magma Man]]'s stage and the first [[Wily Castle (Mega Man 9)|Wily Castle]] stage in ''[[Mega Man 9]]''. It's a skeletal dragon with the body covered by large Changkeys. It rises up and down in a wave-like fashion, while breathing out Changkeys. If they hit the ground, they will roll towards [[Mega Man (character)|Mega Man]].

Its weaknesses are [[Black Hole Bomb]] and [[Concrete Shot]]. When hit by Black Hole Bomb, the Changkeys will temporarily disappear, weakening the dragon. The [[Tornado Blow]] does this effectively as well, but it uses all four shots of it, potentially leaving Mega Man at a disadvantage when he fights Magma Man (who is weak to the Tornado Blow himself). For speedrunners, it is fastest to use Concrete Shot. It kills him in five hits, but it's hard to hit the dragon's head with it for it keeps rising up and down. The [[Hornet Chaser]] is also a good weapon to use on it, as the bees will almost always hit him as long as the dragon's head is visible.
