its the part that people appear to like drawing the most so that makes sense-
Ok. So dragon flight is mostly magic anyways. There’s no way a creature the size of dragons should be able to be supported by wings of the sizes shown. And dragon fire is also pretty sketchy from a biochemistry perspective. So maybe it’s all just magic. And I’m fine with that. If that 's the case?..
Imagine this thing can still fly and breath fire. They’re just as dangerous as a regular dragon (well minus the threat of the talons.) But they still have full dragon bite strength and fire breath. Also, because of their small size, they fly extremely fast and are very small targets for an archer to hit from a distance. They’re basically a fire-breathing skyshark.
Now this depends on the exact setting. In the Inheritance cycle for instance, it’s a combination of both the wings and the innate magicness of dragons that neither the riders nor even the dragons themselves fully understand (for example, dragons can’t cast spells on demand, but in the right mood something that they want to happen, can happen). Lose the wings and there’s still no flight, even if flight does also involve magic. Basically, they use their wings to fly like just like a bird, but their flight power is always boosted to make up for their massive size
I remember seeing some old animated movie as a kid that was part isekai adventure (though we wouldn’t have called it that at the time) and part documentary about dragon physiology.
In that setting they generated hydrogen internally, which is both helpful for flight and how they breathed fire (ignited by a bioelectric organ in the roof of the mouth).

Was playing year of the dragon like a month ago.
His roll attack was annoying.
