Theoretically, how would one figure out the most average looking dragon on Flight Rising?
EDIT: I mostly mean "how would one do this in a way that does NOT involve using the dragon search for days." Survey, maybe?

I'm sure you could find what is the most common of all of the different categories in the search- first by breed, then by gender, then colors, and finally genes.
Too bad there isnt a faster way to see what the most common colors are other than by searching each and every color three times...
The culmination would end up being like all those photos where they morph a bunch of faces together to get an "average" face.

Triple white is about 70K non-exalted dragons.

Had done some research a while ago now that I think about it!
Ironically the most "average" would be an imp since it is the breed with the most number of active dragons on the site. It would be iridescent/shimmer/underbelly.

So back in March I actually did go through all the colors for prim/sec/tert to find the color used the least, among ALL dragons- exalted included. The numbers probably haven’t changed terribly much since then.
Obsidian and White are used the most. Moss was used the least, with Olive and Murk not far behind.
Findings showed that old color wheel colors far outnumber expanded wheel colors, which makes sense since progens still use the old wheel. If I had the time I could probably figure out the exact averagely used color.

@
Halszkaraptor Would that be a triple White or Obsidian?
@
jennycatmystique Any idea on flight?
I definitely feel like the genes would be iridescent/shimmer; they've been around the longest, were a favored combo, and were bred to hell and back because they were thought of as some of the best genes.

That’s with them in any location. Primary, secondary or tertiary. I can’t find my post on xxx colors, perhaps the thread was deleted, but I believe those two were on top of the list for those too.
Sadly I can only help with colors. I don’t have any numbers for genes or breeds.

Behold! The most basic of basic dragons! Find it near you in your local G1 Lair [s](Jking obviously people can like what they like)[/s]

Real talk I went through search a little and tried to narrow down an idea of the most average dragon based on what people have the most of. For sanity's sake I assumed it would be an XXX because going through each color for all three genes would take far too long and could probably be a thread in of itself.
Based on numbers, the most average would be an Adult Female Imp with Triple White Basic and Shadow Common eyes.

I'm kind of surprised Shadow is the most common element, but hey!
Anyway I'm sure this is right, it's possible I fudged the numbers on the colors since that was super hard and I did only check XXX's but here we are.

I'd like to point out that if anyone does try to find average colors, there's a difference between average and mode.
Popular colors like white and obsidian are going to be very common, but are grey-range dragons more common than, say, blue-range? There is a way to find the average of circular data like color wheel position, but it is a bit complicated.
...oh no, someone stop me before I fall down the dragon statistics rabbit hole.
