Aerodactyl (Japanese: プテラ Ptera) is a dual-type Rock/Flying fossil Pokémon.

It is resurrected from an Old Amber and is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

It is widely considered to be extinct, and is only found by resurrecting it from the Old Amber.

Physiology

A ferocious, prehistoric Pokémon, it possesses serrated, saw-blade-like fangs that it uses to tear through the throats of its prey. Its wings have skin stretched from its side to its arms. The triangular-shaped tip of its tail is gray, as is the tail itself, which is connected to its oval-shaped body. Aerodactyl have dark green eyes, though the iris is barely visible.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Aerodactyl is capable of flying at great speeds and tearing through prey with its fangs. It is also very durable due to its rock-hard body. Aerodactyl also shows some form of relationship to Dragons, thus allowing it to learn Dragon- and Fire-type moves such as Dragon Claw, Fire Blast, and Flamethrower.

Behavior

Aerodactyl's preferred method of killing its victims is by tearing through their throats with its serrated, saw-like fangs.

Habitat

File:Mountain.gif

Mountain Pokémon

The exact habitat of Aerodactyl is unknown. Even though living samples have been found underground in caves, so far most Aerodactyl are revived from Old Amber. It most likely lived in mountainous areas.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

In the episode Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon, Ash's Pokédex states "Its hard fangs suggest it might have been a carnivore. Its sharp claws were probably used to capture prey." Despite this analysis, in the episode Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl, the Aerodactyl seemed to enjoy eating a pear-like fruit that grew in the forests of an island, would would imply this it was more of a herbivore.

Major appearances

Aerodactyl first appeared in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon. It scared off the other Generation I fossil Pokémon that were chasing Ash and Team Rocket. It then kidnapped the young Trainer, who was rescued by his Charizard. Todd took a photo of this Aerodactyl, which was seen in Pokémon Paparazzi.

Fossils of Kabutops and Aerodactyl were resurrected by Annie and Oakley in Pokémon Heroes; in the English dub, they were once used by an evil Pokémon Trainer to torment the civilians of Alto Mare, but were drowned when a Latios brought water to the city. They were sent to chase after Ash and Latias. They have blank, yellow-tinted eyes with no pupils and are lined with a thick black outline.

Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl featured an Aerodactyl that was revived by Gary Oak. The Aerodactyl seemed to enjoy eating a pear-like fruit that grew in the forests of an island. Team Rocket agents Butch and Cassidy wanted to steal this Aerodactyl in order to present it to Dr. Namba, but were stopped by Gary's Umbreon and Dodrio, and the Aerodactyl itself, who sent the two Rockets flying with a Hyper Beam.

Another Aerodactyl appeared in Wild in the Streets, where it terrorized Oreburgh City after being revived from its fossil state.

Minor appearances

Aerodactyl can be seen flying within the Tree of Beginning in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew.

An Aerodactyl appeared in the opening scenes of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.

Trivia

• Aerodactyl is one of the few Generation I Pokémon that, as of Generation V, still have no evolutionary relatives, along with Farfetch'd, Kangaskhan, Pinsir, Tauros, Lapras, and Ditto.
• One of Aerodactyl's ability is Rock Head, but for unknown reason, it was never able to learn any recoil move besides Double-Edge, and even then it can only be learned via Generation III Move Tutor. This makes the ability very much useless for Aerodactyl from Generation IV games and above, until a Move Tutor that can teach it a recoil move appears.
• In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Aerodactyl was originally known as "Ptera", from its Japanese name.
  • Aerodactyl's German and French names are the same as its English and Japanese names, respectively.
• During its first appearance in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon, it was mentioned that Aerodactyl was carnivorous, based on its teeth (and the reactions of the other fossil Pokémon when it arrived). However, in Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl, it is shown and proven to be at least omnivorous, based on its joyful consumption of fruit.
• Aerodactyl is the only fossil Pokémon that does not have an evolution or pre-evolution.
  • It is also the only fossil Pokémon that can be obtained in any way other than breeding it or reviving its fossil: it is available through an in-game trade in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal and is one of Hayley's trades.
    • The trade in Generation II was removed in HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions, likely due to the fact that the Old Amber could be obtained and revived in these games, unlike in Generation II.
• Aerodactyl is the only Generation I Template:Type2 that doesn't have a 4× weakness to Template:Type2 moves.
• Aerodactyl is the fastest Template:Type2 Pokémon, with a base Speed of 130.
• Aerodactyl is one of the four non-Hoenn Dex Pokémon available in Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire. The others are Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile.
  • Out of all four, Aerodactyl is the only one which isn't a starter, as well as the only Generation I Pokémon.
• Aerodactyl is the only Template:Type2 Pokémon in the purple color group.
  • What makes this odd is that a non-shiny Aerodactyl is mostly gray and the purple is only on its wings, while color group is usually based on the most prominent color, and there IS a gray color group.

Origin

It appears to be based upon pterosaurs, prehistoric flying reptiles, particularly the rhamphorhynchoidea branch, due to Aerodactyl's possession of teeth and a long tail. It also seems to possess some dragon-like characteristics, such as that of a wyvern, a two legged variety of dragon, which would explain its being on Lance's team.

Name origin

Aerodactyl is a combination of aero, Greek for air, or aeroplane, and the similar sounding pterodactyl. Ptera is simply an abbreviation of pterosaur.

In other languages

Language Name Name Origin German Aerodactyl French Ptera From Greek suffix -ptera Korean 프테라 Peutera Chinese (Mandarin) 化石翼龍 / 化石翼龙 Huàshíyìlóng Literally "Fossil pterodactyl". Chinese (Cantonese) 化石飛龍 Fasehkfēilùhng Literally "Fossil flying dragon". Can also be taken as "Fossil wyvern".
