There are several figures named Pelagon (Ancient Greek: Πελάγων, -ονος) in Greek mythology.

Pelagon, king of Phocis and son of Amphidamas. He gave Cadmus the cow that was to guide him to Boeotia.[1][2][3]
Pelagon or Pelasgus, son of the river-god Asopus by Metope.[4][5]
Pelagon, one of the suitors of Hippodamia before Pelops.[6]
Pelagon, one of the Calydonian hunters.[7]
Pelagon or Pelegon, who is given in the Iliad as the father of the Paeonian warrior Asteropaeus, son of the river-god Axius and Periboea, the daughter of Acessamenus.[8] Presumably this Pelagon was the eponymous founder of Pelagonia.
Pelagon, a native of Pylos who fought under Nestor in the Trojan War.[9]
Pelagon, an "illustrious" companion of the hero Sarpedon during the Trojan War, who removes Tlepolemus' spear from Sarpedon's thigh.[10]
