Altaria (Japanese: チルタリス Chirutarisu) is a Dragon/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Biology

Physiology

Concept artwork of Altaria.

Altaria is a blue bird-like dragon Pokémon with a long, slender neck. It has two long feathers on it head. Its most distinctive feature is the white cloud like feathers covering most of its body.

In its Mega Evolution, its cloud-like feathers are located on top of its head, back, and its wings. Its breast area is exposed and its tail feathers are longer.

Behavior

In sunny days, Altaria blends itself with the clouds and fly freely in the sky. It hums to a person that it feels its mind is synchronized with, by gently wrapping them with its tender wings.

Although mostly having a kind disposition, it will still threaten its opponents with a shrilling cry before mercilessly attacking them if it is provoked.

Natural abilities

When Altaria sings through the sky in its beautiful soprano voice, anyone listening falls into a happy daydream.

Evolution

Altaria evolves from Swablu starting at level 35. It can Mega Evolve into Mega Altaria using its Mega Stone, Altarianite.

Winona's Altaria

Altaria first appears in Sky High Gym Battle! as one of Winona's Pokémon that she uses in battle against Ash Ketchum.

Another Altaria owned by Drake appears in Vanity Affair! where it battles against Ash's Grovyle.

In Last Call - First Round!, one appeared where it was owned by Nando.

It makes minor appearances in Jirachi: Wish Maker where it is seen as one of the Pokémon that lives in Forina. A Swablu was injured and belonged to a flock of Altaria in True Blue Swablu.

It appeared again in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew in a flock with many Swablu. In Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis, a flock an Altaria appeared and the Altaria went mad and Solana caught one to snap the mad Altaria out of their haywireness. An Altaria was seen in A Meteoric Rise to Excellence! where Wilma was training it.

Trivia

• Although its Emerald Pokédex entry states that it launches fireballs from its mouth, Altaria can't learn any Fire type moves via level up.
• Altaria is the only Dragon-type Pokémon to evolve from a Normal-type.
• As Mega Altaria, it is the only Dragon-type Pokémon that is completely immune to Dragon-type moves.
• Winona owns an illegal Altaria in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
• Mega Altaria's type combination (Dragon/Fairy) is unique.

Origin

Altaria is presumably based on a cloud and a phoenix. It may also be based on a Peng, a giant bird from Chinese mythology that can travel great distance and has wings that are described as cloud-like.

Etymology

Its name is a mix between alto, meaning high in Spanish, and aria, which is a song or part of a song that is written for only one singer. It may also come from Altair, a star whose name means "The one who flies".
