Dran was originally awakened by Takuya Harashima, Kazuki Tokimura and Dai Suganuma when they got their hands on Dran's Power Stone, which they accidentally found buried beneath their "time capsule" box, situated on the Ishinowayama Ruins located in the boys' home city. Dran then proceeded to defeat Walter Walzac and his minions shortly after as they were giving chase to the boys in order to claim the Power Stone for themselves, but not before combining with Golgon to form Goldran when facing Walter's robot.
