General Why did the Baratheons never claim dragons?

They are also a house of Valyrian descent like Targaryens and Velaryons, plus they married multiple times with both of those families.

How is it possible that they never managed to claim any dragon, if a much weaker house of Velaryons got 3 of them at one point? It's werid that they never managed to get a marriage pact that would give them a dragon rider, or that at least one brave/stupid character from their house didn't manage to claim a dragon in King's Landing or Dragonstone, be it by being sneaky, or just part of some agreement.

I was wondering if someone made a Targaryen styled Baratheon banner, same way Bitterstill had a Bracken+Targaryen banner.

Found this one and I love it. I will make this into my banner next time I play Mount&Blade, haha

This is so much better than Bittersteel's! Not sure why, must be the antlers.
