Clan Dragons are unique Dragons that can only be obtained in, and belong to, a Clan. Each Clan receives an Enigma Egg when the Clan is created, this egg houses Chip, the first of 10 clan Dragons that can be earned by obtaining Card Packs in Clan Events. Each Clan Dragon requires multiple eggs to be hatched, performed though Community Hatching where members incubate and hatch the required number of eggs, before it can be used.

Clan Dragons cannot be placed, fought with in individual battles, or sold, and they remain available as Clan members join or leave. Clan Dragons have a Rarity but no Dragon Codex entry, no Elements, and they give no experience nor DCP points. Instead, they have Powers that can be activated before a Clan Event starts, making it easier, though it cannot be changed once an Event has started.

Chat

The following article contains in-progress content affected by the development of information.
***Information contained herein may be incorrect or incomplete and is subject to change.***

The Clan Chat is the interface where members can communicate to each other. It is always shown in the left of the screen whenever the front page of the Clan is accessed through either of the options. Whenever a members sends a message, their name and Clan Rank is shown, as well as the time they sent the message and the icon if they are the current MVP.

Upon joining a Clan, new members are able to view a limited number of past messages posted to Chat (the default behavior as of Update 6.0 was 50 messages retained on new member entry, though this has been known to change in Game Updates). Clan Chat has a memory buffer that retains the limited number of posts, though once chat is viewed if a Trainer keeps the screen active, the number of messages retained increases until they are fully logged off. Similarly, Trainers rejoining the same Clan may be able to access the full history of messages if they did not log off the game.

When using chat, messages are written at the top of the chat interface and then sent through the button (the message can also be sent through the enter key on the keyboard). The Trainers' equipped badge is shown in the left of their name. The names of other Trainers are colored in a lighter shade of blue while the main Trainer's name is not displayed. The messages of all Trainers are colored in black and those of the main Trainer are over a lighter shade of orange background while those of the other Trainers are over a light gray background. However, Trainers have the option to color their text by adding # and any number from 1 to 8 before their text. Additionally, the Messages are limited to 512 characters and profanity is censored with asterisks. Profanity, however, can be enabled or disabled when editing the Clan settings.

Apart from member messages, the Clan Chat also sends automated messages for whenever a Clan levels up or a Clan event started, who is elected the MVP of the event, who and when they completed a Legendary recipe, who joined, left or was removed from the Clan, who asks for donations, who and which Clan Dragon they changed, who and which characteristic of the Clan they changed. Automated messages are generally sent in light gray text over an even lighter gray background, but the color of text becomes green whenever a new Trainer joins the Clan.

If a Legendary recipe is completed, the automated message will be sent in white text over a purple background. During Clan events, if there are people who asked for donations, but have not received all the ingredients they asked for, whenever a Trainer is scrolling through the chat and said incomplete donation message leaves the viewable screen, the Trainer will see a number in a yellow-bordered shape indicating how many people have not received all the items they have asked for. Whenever a request for ingredients appears in the chat, other Trainers can donate by pressing the   Donate   button in the right of the requested ingredient, and can also press the i button to see how many times they have donated for that day.

Donations

During Clan Events clan members can help other team members by donating event items, though the amount of items that can be donated is limited. Typically this involves donating items earned though the completion of Clan Quests. If members leave a Clan their donation counter is reset, even if they re-join the same clan. Clan Coins are not lost when leaving or switching Clans.

Enchantment Material can be requested from Clan members by selecting the button in the Clan Chat. The Trainer can request either 16 fair or 2 average material at once every 24 hours. Once a request is sent, the Trainer must either wait until a fellow Clanmate has donated the requested material or 24 hours before being able to send a new request. Donators will receive 1 Enchanted Trinket for 1 Fair Material and 6 Enchanted Trinkets for 1 Average Materials. A donator can donate up to a maximum of 24 times per day. Legendary, Divine, and Ancient materials can not be requested or donated, except for extremely rare special occasions.

If there are people who asked for donations, but have not received all the materials they asked for, whenever a Trainer is scrolling through the chat and said incomplete donation message leaves the viewable screen, the Trainer will see a number in a purple-bordered shape indicating how many people have not received all the items they have asked for. Whenever there is a new message, the icon will be shown in the top-right corner of the Clan-accessing option in the left of the screen.

Non-Member View

When viewing the details of another Clan as non-member, the following can be seen: Crest, Clan name, Level, current and maximum number of members, language, description, League, status, and a list of current members of the Clan (their name, avatar, level, rank and a ••• button to, depending on their privacy settings, buttons to invite/friend, visit their Islands). Non-member actions buttons appear depending on the its membership acceptance status:

•   Join   - Join the clan (open/without approval), if there are free spots.
•   Apply   - Apply to join (join by request), if there are free spots.
  • The applicant must wait until their request is reviewed by a member with the ability to accept or reject it. Appling to multiple Clans at the same time, is not possible, prior requests must be cancelled first.

Events

Clan Events are limited-time competitions Clans can participate in only if they have a fully hatched Clan Dragon. Clans work together to reach milestones, compete against each other and other Clans to earn rewards. For the duration of the event, Clan quests, in addition to the regular rewards, give items needed for Clans to progress through the event.

Clan events begin on Mondays at 09:00 UTC and end Fridays at the same hour. On very rare occasions, these events can occur during the weekend. There are 4 types of Clan events, The Great Dragon Race, Emerald Wars, Sugar Rush and Clan Siege.

Leagues

Clans are grouped into 5 different leagues of approximately the same strength. Each league has several leaderboards, each having a maximum of 100 Clans. The league a Clan is currently in affects the prizes and requirements in Clan Events. Each league gives the Clan several other shields in addition to those unlocked through leveling. The amount of Dragon Pieces rewarded by Grand Prize Card Packs depend on the Clan's final position on the leaderboard and the amount is not affected by any league.

Icon	League	Shields Available	Milestone Card Pack	Grand Prize Card Pack	MVP Reward
	League 1	None	1 per pack	All Clan Dragons (except Kutter, Boone and Feather)	500
	League 2	None	2 per pack		750
	League 3		3 per pack		1,000
	League 4		4 per pack	All Clan Dragons (except Boone and Feather)	2,000
	League 5		5 per pack	All Clan Dragons (except Feather)	3,000

Note: Feather Dragon Pieces are only awarded weekly to the top 5 clans of League 5.

Promotion and Demotion

Scores are determined in accordance with final leaderboard position at the end. The league leaderboard resets at 23:00 UTC and Clans are promoted and demoted accordingly.

The number of Clans promoted and demoted depends on the league:

Icon	League	Promoted	Demoted
	League 5	Top 5 (Feather )	Bottom 40 ▼
	League 4	Top 20 ▲	Bottom 35 ▼
	League 3	Top 20 ▲	Bottom 25 ▼
	League 2	Top 10 ▲	Bottom 25 ▼
	League 1	Top 5 ▲	n/a

 See Clan Events for information on rewards and Clan event types

Gifts

In addition to the other benefits of being part of a Clan, members will receive a gift whenever one of their Clan members purchases Gems, directly or indirectly, during a so called Gift Giver Event. There are five different gifts and the gift that is to be awarded depends on the number of Gems that were purchased. This event is a promotion that is only made available occasionally and for a limited time, usually no longer than 3 days.
