* In ''BreathOfFire 3'', shortly after Ryu matures into an adult, he and Garr face off against a zombie dragon. This fight is either really easy (if you have the Kyrie spell, which is a GuideDangIt to acquire through the Master system), or devastatingly tough (as your main healer in the battle, Ryu, is also your main damage dealer, and he can't do both).

* The Frost Wyrm of the scourge in ''{{Warcraft}} 3'' and ''WorldOfWarcraft''. Sindragosa deserves special mention, having appeared on the latter's login screen for the duration of ''Wrath of the Lich King'' and ''really'' annoying players with her loud roar.

** Another one worth mentioning is Sapphiron, a blue dragon slain and raised by Arthas [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome (who is actually playable in Warcraft 3: The Frozen Trone Scourge campaign for one mission)]]. He too is a raid boss in World of Warcraft in the necropolis of Naxxramas.
** Though he never actually became a Frost Wyrm, the progenitor of all dragons Galakrond deserves a mention. One of the projects of the Lich King was to exhume the skeletal remains of this IMMENSE (probably the size of a small hill) dragon and reanimate it as a frost wyrm. Fortunately ([[MissedMomentOfAwesome or maybe unfortunately, since the boss battle with that thing could have been epic]]) players crash this project before it can be achieved.

** They are notable in that Dragons are the only creatures not converted into skeletons when using any "skeleton transformer" type structure. Instead putting dragons through this will result in one of these (who have better interactions with your undead troops, since apparently even living dragons are fearful of the dead).

** Volvagia in ''OcarinaOfTime'' is stated to have been killed by an ancient Goron warrior and later revived by Ganondorf. He seems to have gotten all his flesh back, though, so it's not really apparent just from looking at him that he's undead.

** This includes [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Dragon Zombie]]. Zombie]].
** Also features in one of the anime's most infamous examples of ScrewTheRulesIHavePlot when Yugi somehow fuses his Mammoth Graveyard (a wooly mammoth skeleton) with Kaiba's Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon (a three-headed dragon created by combining three copies of the iconic Blue Eyes White Dragon card). This turns the dragon into a zombie, causing its stats to drop each turn as its body decomposes.

* EverQuest and EverQuestII both feature the Dracoliche in the Plane/Shard of Fear, a (at the time of their release) very tough boss monster. Strangely, thanks to its immunity to magic-type spells, it was immune to spells that worked against undead and dragons.

* One short based on ''Film/HowtoTrainYourDragon'' involved the heroes being attacked by a skeletal dragon called the Bone Knapper. However it's revealed at the end of the short that the Bone Knapper is actually friendly and that it just wanted its collar bone (which allows it to roar) back.
