| The Year of the Dragon brings many great wonders, but this Lunar New Year's Dragon Dance is a little different. The dragon costume itself has been enchanted by the mice at Zugzwang's Tower for a most magical display, however, it seems things have gotten a little bit out of control. This poor mouse is barely able to hang on as the costume seems to have taken on a life of its own! Use Dragonbreath Charms to attract this most ferocious beast; it's the only fireworks display that can stun them long enough to be captured! | |||

Preferred Cheese

Hunting Strategy
Dragonbreath Charms must be armed in order to attract this mouse during the Year of the Dragon Festival, and Nitropop Charms must be armed to attract this mouse during the Year of the Snake Festival. In the Calamity Carl's Cozy Cruise a hunter must have a Firecracker Charm armed to attract this mouse. Hunters are advised to use their strongest and luckiest trap available to them for this rare adversary, in order to prevent this elusive mouse from getting away from their trap in the event that they encounter one.
