Breeding projects are so, so fun! They can also be the world's biggest pain in the rear! Oh, how I love dichotomy! Absolutely delicious.
This here Google Sheet is supposed to be a helpful little tool to assist in your breeding projects. Wanna compare a bunch of breeding candidates to pick the best possible partner for your project dragon? Or maybe you want a more streamlined Auction House search tool that takes rarity tiers into account. Whatever you'd like to do, this sheet can do it!
... within reason. I'm only one gal who likes fiddling in Sheets with my free time!

Current version: v2
How to Use This Sheet:
- - - - -
It's easy as pie, I promise!
And that's it! If you've used my other sheets in the past, this should look rather familiar. This sheet relies heavily on a dragon's URL (if they have one) and their morphology image link. If you're unsure what I'm talking about, check the Intro page on the first tab of the sheet! I go over everything there.
Anyways, here's what this sheet can do!
Breeding Candidate Comparison
Judges breeding candidates based on the goal scry by analyzing their colors and their gene rarity.
- - - - -
To use, first paste your goal dragon's morphology image URL into the large topmost gold cell. For this example, I'll be using a current project of mine: a fandragon of Franziska von Karma from the Ace Attorney series:
Franziska von Karma, she's so pretty~
I'll paste her URL in the gold cell mentioned above. If the URL you posted is correct, it should look like this:
You'll see that this scry is for a Female Ridgeback with a Sky Iridescent primary, a Midnight Shimmer secondary, and a White Filigree tertiary (eyes and element do not matter here, as it's the nest and RNG that influences a dragon's element and eyes respectively, not the parents).
I've deliberately chosen all gem genes, so I'm going to be picky about the dragons I search for because I want those genes to pass on from parent to offspring (otherwise, this becomes a VERY expensive geneing project).
Thankfully, I've already found all the dragon's I'll be using, so I'll upload a handful of them into the sheet. For each breeding candidate, paste their URL and their morphology image URL into the proper cells below:
Here are 4 of the 16 dragons I've found and will be using for this project. Each row is a potential breeding candidate, and within each row you'll find the following:
- - - - -
Color Numbers Explained
- - - - -
Next to each gene you'll notice some numbers. Some are positive, others negative, and some sit right at 0. The numbers next to a gene determines the distance and placement of the candidate's colors when compared to the goal.
Larger numbers are further away on the color wheel from the goal scry. Positive (+) numbers place candidate's colors above the goal scry's colors. Negative (-) numbers place the candidate's colors below the goal scry's color. Colors marked 0 are an exact match.
Note that breeding two positive colors or two negative colors will not get you your goal scry, as the goal color sits outside the breeding color range. Colors marked 0 can be bred with any dragon and still be within color range.
- - - - -
CDI Explained
- - - - -
CDI stands for Color Distance Index.
This number determines how many colors are between the breeding dragon and the goal scry in all 3 gene spaces.
Rule of thumb: the lower the CDI, the better. A CDI of 0 means the breeding dragon is an exact color match.
Note that sometimes you may have better odds with dragons with higher CDIs! Always do the math to determine your odds!
- - - - -
Rarity Words Explained
- - - - -
The breed and each gene also have one of four words by them: match, higher, even, and lower. The words next to a gene describes that gene's rarity when compared to the goal scry's genes. In each instance, assume the breeding candidate is paired with a dragon that has the goal scry's genes.
Match: This gene is a match with the goal scry's. An ideal candidate to use in breeding if you're looking to pass on that gene to the pair's offpsring.
Higher: This gene is rarer than the goal scry's, and less likely to be passed down. Good for breeding.
Even: This gene is a rarity match with the goal scry's. 50/50 shot of being passed down. Good for breeding.
Lower: This gene is more common than the goal scry's, and more likely to be passed down. If breeding for genes, not ideal.
Because I'm breeding for a dragon composed entirely of gem genes, I specifically searched for only rare genes. That's why all breeding candidates only have "Even" or "Match" next to each gene! As for her breed, Ridgeback scrolls are a lot less expensive than gem genes. I plan on breed-changing her once I get the right colors and genes.
- - - - -
Using this sheet, I'm able to look at a consolidated, color-coded list depicting all the potential breeding candidates I found. I can see what kind of genes each candidate has, where their colors sit on the color wheel, and who I can pair off in order to get the outcome I want. When browsing the Auction House for breeding candidates, what I'll do is set certain search criteria, copy and paste the candidate URLs and morphologies into the sheet, then compare the potential breeders so I can see what kind of dragons I'm working with and who will be the best candidates for the project.
Additionally, you can move the rows up or down without disrupting the formulas, so if you find a perfect pair, you can place them next to each other and set them at the top of the list. You can also use the white bars above the first breeding candidate row to filter your entries! Filter for only female dragons, organize entries by lower-to-highest CDI, you get the point.
Note: This sheet does not assay bloodlines. I wish it did. But it doesn't. Be sure to do that before shelling out 40g for a breeding candidate that cannot breed because you accidentally bought a niece and uncle pair. Ask me how I know this.
And those are the basics on how to use the Breeding Candidate Comparison tab!
Breeding Probability Calculator
Calculates the exact percentages of breeding pairs pasted into the Candidate Comparison tab. Can be enabled in the Candidate Comparison tab, but may make the sheet lag.
- - - - -
If you'd like to know the exact chance of getting the perfect dragon from all your dragon couples, then use this tab!
To use, first make sure that the Calculator is enabled (the toggle option can be found in the Breeding Candidate Comparison tab). Then, start uploading dragons into the Comparison tab! If done correctly, your Calculator should look like this:
The Calculator draws all the info it needs from the Comparison tab, and all dragons uploaded there will be automatically imported into the Calculator. Below is a brief explanation of each section of the Calculator and how to use it:
And that's the Calculator explained!
Auction House / Dragon Search URL Generator
Generates URLs for the Auction House and Dragon Search based on breed and gene rarity tiers and color ranges.
- - - - -
The Auction House is a blessing and a curse. Blessing because yay, new dragons! Curse because new dragons cost money. Also, it's a bit of a pain to use. If you've ever wanted to search for all the genes of the same rarity tier, you understand me.
The AH/DS URL Generator streamlines the process of searching for breeding candidates by making it easier to define your search criteria based on your goal scry's URL. Again, I'll by exemplifying its use with my Franziska scry. I past the morphology in the upper lefthand gold cell:
And there she is!
The right column of cells are where you set your search criteria:
Now, let's says I wanted to search the Auction House for all-gem gene dragons, regardless of breed or gender. I also want to search for dragons that are at most 12 colors away from the scry's colors. In this case, my search criteria would look like this:
Two URLs will spit out at the bottom: one for the Auction House, and one for Dragon Search. Copy and paste those URLs into your browser to search the respective database! Fingers crossed you find the dragon you need!
Note: This sheet accounts for the differences between dragons and modern dragons. If you enter an ancient dragon within the scry URL cell, you can only search for either ALL dragons (moderns included) or the same ancient breed.
Breeding Pair Generator
Generates BBCode for two paired dragons.
- - - - -
If you've used my other Toolkit before, this tab will look similar. As it has to do with breeding, I figured I'd throw it in here for good measure. Simply copy and paste the URLs and morphology image URLs of two parents into their respective cells to generate paste-able BBCode showing the potential breed, color, and gene outcomes of the their offspring! Using a pair for my Franziska von Karma dragon:
Caster x Doc

Pink, Bubblegum, Rose, Pearl, Maize, Cream, Antique, White
Further customization can be had by choosing fonts and symbols from the dropdown menus at the bottom of the sheet tab.
Family Tree Generator
Generates a (good enough) family tree of a dragon. Requires names and URLs of family members, and goes up 4 generations (to the great-great-grandparents).
- - - - -
If you need a quick and easy family tree to post in your dragon's bio, here you are! This is a pretty rudimentary BBCode generator that will let you do so. For my example here, I'll use my Trucy Wright fandragon (and her lineage):
To use the generator, simply trace your dragon's lineage back starting from Gen 0 (in this case, Trucy). Paste the names of the dragons into the tan cells, and their URLs into the gold cells. Then, use the topmost gold dropdown cells to indicate the starting generation and the paste location. For Trucy here, I'll trace her back as far as I can go (to her great-grat-grandparents).
Once that's all filled out, copy and paste the generated BBCode wherever you like!

It's easy as pie, I promise!
- Click File > Make a Copy to save your very own version of this document onto your own Drive! Give the Sheet permissions if it asks for them.
- Start filling out the proper boxes! As a general rule of thumb, only the gold boxes need any user input. Everything else should generate automatically based on what's in those gold boxes.
And that's it! If you've used my other sheets in the past, this should look rather familiar. This sheet relies heavily on a dragon's URL (if they have one) and their morphology image link.

Even: This gene is a rarity match with the goal scry's. 50/50 shot of being passed down. Good for breeding.

- Goal Scry: Found at the top of the calculator. Displays what each pair is being judged against. If any cell of the Percentage Table displays 0%, it means that the goal scry is not attainable in that pair (neither dragon shares the goal's breed and/or genes, the goal scry's color sits outside the pair's color range, etc.). You don't need to do anything to this section.
- Percentage Table: The chance of each attribute being passed to each pair's offspring. The Calculator automatically pulls all dragons from the Breeding Comparison tab. Then, it sorts male dragons and female dragons and pairs each male with each female. You don't need to do anything to this section.
- Pair Blacklist: If any dragon pairs are related to one another, paste their IDs here. The Calculator will flag all pairs that are ineligible to breed in the Best Pairs section. The same ID can be posted multiple times in case one dragon has multiple relatives in the Calculator's pool!
- Best Pairs: Sorts the pairs based on the highest probabilities. Self explanatory.
- Ignore Attributes Checks: Check these boxes if there are any attributes that are unimportant to the outcome. For example, if you plan on breed-changing your final dragon, checking "Breed" will stop the Calculator from considering a dragon pair's breed outcome in the final percentage.
And that's the Calculator explained!

The right column of cells are where you set your search criteria:
- Gender: Search by Male, Female, or Both.
- Breed: Search by all breeds (searches all breeds), equal and higher rarity breeds (searches all modern breeds as rare or rarer than a Ridgeback), and exact breed match (will only search Ridgebacks).
- Gene color range: The maximum number of color spaces from the goal color that you're willing to search. A blank cell/"0" in the primary gene slot will only search for dragons with Sky primaries. A 10 in that slot will search for dragons 10 away on both sides of Sky (Indigo and Cerulean).
- Gene rarity: Search by all genes (searches all genes), search equal and higher rarity genes (searches only rare/gem genes, in this instance), and search exact gene (will only search Iridescent, Shimmer, and/or Filigree).
Now, let's says I wanted to search the Auction House for all-gem gene dragons, regardless of breed or gender. I also want to search for dragons that are at most 12 colors away from the scry's colors. In this case, my search criteria would look like this:
Two URLs will spit out at the bottom: one for the Auction House, and one for Dragon Search. Copy and paste those URLs into your browser to search the respective database! Fingers crossed you find the dragon you need!
