ALL. But from order of dificulty Shadow/Red, Silver and Black.
the green only matters if you take let your pride take the best of you.(a dificult fight were i get nothing and I can get away from it´s a fight I am unwilling to take)
the green is in Hell.(pride)

No, never was, I did play P&P (hence my name)for a while here, But this Info cames from the "Monstrous Manual" and "Monstrous Compendium Annual Volume 2,3 and 4" that I am lucky to possess.

I know that some of you may not count this as a dragon but the pseudo dragon is in the game as a familiar.
also missing from the list is the fairy dragon.

Hah! If we're getting fancy there's the Dragonne and the Dragon Turtle...

But what happened to THE Chromatic Dragon (Tiamat) and THE Platinum Dragon (Bahamut)?

Look, the fairy dragon is a dragon in terns of age but not as dificult.
I did put the dragon turtle and I like to point out that Dragon magazine creates a lot of new types of monstrers. So the list I put is most likely incomplet. the peudodragon is not related to dragons at all.
Tiamat and Bahamut are Powers (GODS) by the way and they come from Krynn.
