Does anyone know the meaning of Altaria's Japanese name?
>I'm pretty sure it's named after a star in the Draco constilation. I know it's an astrological reference, anyways.
- Zeta
Location
Where is Altaria located in ruby/sapphire and beyond? I don't have any of them but D/P and this won't tell me where. Tyrogue
- You just have to be patient. Bulbapedia relies on voluntary work and we already know where there are gaps. As it happens, I was working through the Game locations before my unexpected absense in the last week but now that I'm back I'll get back into them. --FabuVinny T-C-S 10:36, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
- To tide you over, I think they can be found in the Sky Pillar, though very rarely. --DarkfireTaimatsu 19:15, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
I thought they were in Sky Pillar... Tyrogue
Another name theory
Could the "Alt" in Altaria's name possibly refer to the word "altitude", as in a high altitude. It does make sense, being a Flying-type. -- Nebula 00:24, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Altaria-based of a Phoenix?
It is,after all,a Dragon-type Pokémon and can learn moves such as Flamethrower and Fire Blast(even though many other non-Fire-types do too) If I recall correctly this was even once written in the Origin section!
Albatross?
