Process 1: Type Cycle
The Type Cycle exists on 3 stages. The system will only check for opposites on Stage 1. When an opposite is detected, the process will skip to Stage 3. At the end of this process when no dragons are generated on the list. An elemental that contains the first element from left parent will be generated on the list. In this process, only type combinations are generated.

Stage 1
- Containing : P1(e1)/P2(e1) if opposite = none;
- Containing : P1(e1)/P2(e2) if opposite = none; check if P1(e1) = P2(e2)
- Containing : P1(e1)/P2(e3) if opposite = none; check if P1(e1) = P2(e3)
- It will only check the opposite list in stage one. If the containing types are equal, an elemental from that type is generated.
Stage 2
- Containing : P1(e2)/P2(e1)
- Containing : P1(e2)/P2(e2)
- Containing : P1(e2)/P2(e3)
- If the containing types are equal, an elemental from that type is generated.
Stage 3
- This stage will only be unlocked if both parents have more than 1 element or are a wildcard.
- Containing : P1(e1)/P2(e1)/P2(e2)
- Containing : P1(e2)/P2(e1)/P2(e2)
- Containing : P1(e3)/P2(e1)/P2(e2)
- Containing : P2(e1)/P1(e1)/P1(e2)
- Containing : P2(e2)/P1(e1)/P1(e2)
- Containing : P2(e3)/P1(e1)/P2(e2)
Notes
Trivia
- The breeding system is similar to the one from pokémon games.
- Gen(eration) classification of each dragon is a DCW-made device to assist players in the determination of the likelihood of breeding that dragon. Credits --> Andibad.
History
- As at 26-July-2013 (LaW update), the Breeding system has been changed. The Pure Dragon is now an Elemental Dragon, and can be bought at the Store. Due to the change in the status of the Pure, it and Pure Hybrids are now very easy to breed.
- Sometime Mid-2013, the Deus Vault was removed from the Store. Many of the dragons from the Deus Vault are now breedable, and are now classified as Breedable Exclusives.
- Approximately 6:30, September 23, 2012 in Tuesday, an official update in Dragon City's Facebook page showed that Rarity Boost raises the chances of getting a Rare, Legend or Pure Dragon is increased by 50%. The probability of getting a Pure has since (LaW update) been changed.
- The breeding times have been changed. Previously, the breeding time was calculated as a total of the parents breeding time. Currently most dragon's breeding times are equal to the hatch time.
