They go together to Flame Mountain, where his home is. Bloom says that she is sad because she does not know how to defeat the evil dragons. Buddy says that if she wants to defeat the dragons, she needs to be a dragon herself, so he teaches her dragon ways, teaching her how to walk like a dragon, eat like a dragon, and also how to roar like a dragon, but Bloom's roar made him laugh.

Trivia[]

“Buddy” is a name often used as a nickname to describe someone as a friend, highlighting Buddy’s friendly and trustworthy nature. Adding to this, the first part of Buddy’s name (“Bud”) shares a similar, floral commonality with Bloom’s as a “bud” is a flower that has “yet to bloom”, symbolizing his status as her inner dragon.
Bud greatly resembles a dragon species called flames, whose names were revealed in Issue 115: The Last Dragon of Pyros. The only difference is that they have a longer, skinnier neck than him.
- His adult appearance however is exactly what the species will grow up to be, except that he is still green.
