| The '''Atari Dragon''' is an 8-bit creature that has often been mistaken for a [[Ducks|duck]]. The dragon comes from the [[Atari 2600]] game [[Adventure (Atari 2600)|Adventure]]. The objective of Adventure is to take a magic Chalice and place it in the starting castle ([[Strong Bad]] can actually be seen carrying this Chalice in [[Main Page 13]]). The three dragons in the actual game were yellow, green, and red; so, while the yellow dragon (whose name is "Yorgle") could be considered an actual character from the game, the white dragons seen in "Everybody to the Limit" could not.
