First off, there will be 4-6 different regions. each region has from 2-4 Draco breeds. The regions (and Dracos) are called:
Alagayjia (Al-Leh-GAY-zha) : The Japalo, the Sinitic and the Korien
Euronia: Gergio, the Sparroe, and the Englo
The Northern Amerigo lands: The Mejicana, the Pate and the Canado
Unknown breeds: there, so far, are twelve unknown breeds (which have yet to have a ame) but with many more yet to be discovered, and many, many, many combinations of breedings for you to discover!
Final breeds: Muttlies. They are called 'muttlies' because of being a combination of two or more Dracos. There is a maximum of 4 cross-breedings alowed per bloodline. in other words, you can have 30% of one breed, 30% of another, 15% of one other, and 25% of one final breed. Sound unique yet?

Japalo looks like Japaleno, as in the pepper I thought this was a Mexican-style dragon at first lol. And Chineez is like Cheez Whiz... Not all that elegant an association. xD How about maybe calling it the Sinitic, which is what the various Chinese langauges (yes there's more than one) are called. Sinitic isn't something a normal person might immediately associate as Chinese, but it's solely Chinese and personally sounds both better and more original to me than Chineez. And I'd call the Mejicana the Japalo for the before mentioned pepper But really only the Chineez look espeically cheesy to me haha. I do have a question. Why the strange breed combo for Muttlies? It's very possible and easy to code, but why? And why the limit on number of crosses, won't that just discourage the breeding of Muttlies all together? Also I'd be careful about seeming too down on crossbreeding, since they are going to look human at least part of the time, some stupid trolling people may take racial purity meanings from it and say the site is promoting racism or something. xD

The reason for thelimiting on crossbreedings is because too many crossbreedings would cause sterility in the Dracos...

Oh, haha, the exact opposite of real life. ^^ Usually, too purebreeding causes fertility and disease problems lol Okay. By the way, I think it would be easier to write code to piece the Muttlies together, rather than artists doing it. This way there's more variety with less general work, and should be more easily updated or changed if the Dracos change entirely or just a bit. Least I think so, I admit I've not pieced together a huge number of parts before. But I have done it! ^-^

lol, OK, fine then. We'll just piece the Draco's together. If it turns out looking wacky though, we'll go with my idea, 'kay?

Your idea, um kay. ^^ Once another dragon is finished up, I'll take it apart a bit for a preview. Though for the real thing the artists should be doing the individual pieces, with all similar parts the same size, so they don't look messed up. By the way, I just realized today that Wajas has an inbreeding percentage. I'm guessing it works the exact same way? And that they also apparently have stats that determine, contray to real life, the genders of babies they have. Just so you know in advance, I am strongly opposed to copying Wajas' unique ideas and genetics like that.

Well, the only way I can think of for having a higher chance of males or females would be a MG% or FG%....

what about the mutations, will they be %s or based on show, not show, and carry?

I think that there should be a water region, and have dragons like the following: Shuiliung: a fishy twist on the traditional chinese dragon (the name means "Waterdragon" in chinese). Basically, more fish like, no wings, smooth body, and fish fins. Mizuryu: a fish version of the japanese take on dragons. etc.

Meh, I think we have enough breeds to worry about...

well, I figure it would be better to get it up quiker, with good quality and with less, then add more later, than taking forever or having worse quality^.^

Why do you need a higher chance for males vrs females? That's not how real life works. xD Why not an item that gives you a higher chance of one gender over the other, as an alternative breeding item?
Or how about giving an equal chance at males or females, but have dragons either throw good quality males and low quality females or vs versa? That's realistic, at least where horse breeding is concerned. I've also not seen it in any game, so it'd be original as well.
