'''Dragoneels''' are gigantic eels that make their debut in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. These enemies have angry closed eyes that resemble those of a [[Porcupuffer]], and large zigzag-shaped red jaws, the upper one having a pink lip. Also, they have long sleek bodies with a long purple crest running along their red backs and their underside is white with pale purple polka dots, and a long purple fin along their back. Dragoneel's wing-like pectoral fins and three-lobed caudal fin are similar to those of [[Cheep Cheep]]s. They closely resemble [[Gobblegut]] (and [[Fracktail]]) and behave similar to the [[Snorkel Snake]] as they try to encircle players with their bodies; in fact, their internal file name in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' suggests they may be directly based on the Snorkel Snake. | '''Dragoneels''' are gigantic eels that make their debut in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''.

In the game, they attack by chasing the player's character. They can only be defeated with a [[Super Star]], and doing so causes it to spit out several [[coin]]s. Dragoneels appear in the [[Sparkling Waters]] level, [[Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto]] and {{world-link|coin|5|World Coin-5 (New Super Mario Bros. U)}}. It follows the player throughout the underwater course, while the players must avoid the monster. Throwing [[fireball]]s at its head will slow it down, but throwing them at its body will speed it up. If the player swims behind a Dragoneel and remains out of reach, the Dragoneel will begin circling the player. In a multiplayer game, it will go after the player furthest to the right of the screen. The Dragoneel is also capable of swimming through walls and other objects. | In the game, they attack by chasing the player's character.

A shorter, purple-blue variant of Dragoneels can be found in Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto. Only two purple Dragoneels appear in a small section with coins and a [[Star Coin]]. They have the same strategies that Dragoneels have; they follow the player(s) while they must avoid them. However, they make tighter turns, and are significantly slower.
