Best passives for Shaolong
Passives are rolled or bred on, not learned, so these are the same picks for any Pal you plan to fight with — highest-ranked attack traits first.

Awakening
Shaolong is dual-element, so its crystal is either Dragon Awakening Crystal or Water Awakening Crystal — the item data names one element per crystal and does not say which a two-element Pal takes. Either way it costs 50 Radiant Gems of that element plus 10 World Tree Holy Water.
