Dragons will have its own page in the Registry, alongside the other Oddities. Finding a dragon will also work in the same way - a special Dragon trace will appear on the map, you'll save the dragon from a Confoundable, then add the dragon to your Registry. Dragons will, however, be the first regionally exclusive Oddity in the game. Being 'regionally exclusive' is exactly like it sounds. Much like how certain Pokémon in Pokémon Go can only be found in specific countries or areas around the world, Tauros only spawns in North America for example, Dragons in Wizards Unite will be assigned specific regions across the world to appear in.
