Aerodactyl (Japanese: プテラ, Hepburn: Putera) (AIR-row-DACK-tull) is a Rock/Flying-type Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation I that is resurrected from an Old Amber fossil.

Biology

Physiology

Concept artwork of Aerodactyl.

Aerodactyl is a pterosaur-like Pokémon. It has an arrowhead-shaped point at the tip of its tail, a cone-shaped spike on its back, purplish-gray skin, and a lower jaw full of sharp teeth.

When it Mega Evolves, it gains black stone spike-like protrusions on it body; five on each wing, five on its head, one one its back, and three on its tail. It also has smoother black protrusions; one on its forehead and three on its chest.

Behavior

Aerodactyl has a vicious temperament and flies without fear through the sky. It is said that Aerodactyl ruled the skies in its ancient world. When incensed, it can use its extremely sharp and serrated saw blade-like teeth to attack. When Aerodactyl hunt, they aim for the throats of prey. They attack from above, tearing out the necks of victims with their teeth. Some research has shown that they may be loosely linked to modern-day Dragon-types. Though superb fliers, they were actually quite slow and clumsy on land. Surprisingly, Aerodactyl are omnivores, eating various fruits and Berries in addition to meat. They seem to especially enjoy Pamtre Berries, perhaps because these Berries are closely related to an ancient fruit they consumed long ago. Aerodactyl also love Aspear Berries, though no studies have linked them to any fruits from when Aerodactyl were alive.

Anime

Aerodactyl made its anime debut in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon where it took Ash Ketchum away. Later a flashback appear in Pokémon Paparazzi, while Todd had taken a photo of this scene on the sly.

A large, fossilized Aerodactyl was resurrected with the power of Soul Dew by Annie and Oakley along with a large Kabutops in Pokémon Heroes, using Hyper Beam to attack Ash and Latias.

Trivia

• Aerodactyl is the only Rock-type Pokémon from Generation I that does not have a double weakness to the Grass type.
  • It is also the only Generation I Rock type Pokémon that isn't part ground type nor water type.
• According to the Official Pokémon X and Y website, researchers believe Mega Aerodactyl may be the true form of Aerodactyl.
• Aerodactyl and Vileplume had the same cry up until Generation VI.
• Aerodactyl is the only Fossil Pokémon with a Mega Evolution.
• A genus of pterosaurs was named Aerodactylus after this Pokémon.
• Unlike real pterosaurs, Aerodactyl has bat-like wings and can completely bend its limbs.
• It is the only fossil Pokémon that is restored from a sample of DNA in a different source rather than the actual fossil.

Origin

Aerodactyl is based on a pterosaur with some features of dragons. Its grayish-purple color, pointed tail, and draconic features may be in reference to Ridley, a recurring boss from the Metroid series who takes the form of a purple pterosaur-like dragon with a spear-like tail. It could also be inspired by Rodan, a pteranodon kaiju from the Godzilla series.

Etymology

Aerodactyl is a portmanteau of aero- (meaning air) and Pterodactylus (a genus of pterosaurs popularly known as "pterodactyls").

Its Japanese name, Putera, comes from ptera (Greek for wing) and pterosaur.
