Anonymous thanks...i found the last elite enemy but i didn't get 100/100. What did I do wrong? I have no bonuses left and i beat malefour but i guess i didn't do something. if someone can help me (which i think all it does it just unlock the enemy art gallery) that would be great.

Well, when I got there... I first flew to the left, and battled that ground opponent farthest over. I realized that I couldn't find a way back to the door, so I had to turn of the game. I went to the right, and got the two over there, with the two whirlwinds. I see where I'm supposed to go, above everything, and I think I know how to get there, but I keep trying, and can't make it. I'm currently swining with my other character on the vines, around and around, and trying to run on the side of the wall to the top, not working.

I just finished beating the large rock lava guy from the beginning, in Dragon City. We are leaving to meet up with the large rock guy. We're underground, just leaving, and there are 4 dragons to awaken before you can get the door open. I have the two on the right, and I'm a bit stuck with the two on the left, I can't seem to find a way to get them their jewels to awaken them.

I killed the one on the ledge after you get in the doors from lighting all the torches. You fight all those metal monter things then you jump over to that other broken building area. I killed that one. I figured there should be one outside the doors but I can't seem to get one to pop-up.
