It was first introduced in Generation I, alongside the original 150 Pokémon, and is revived from an Old Amber fossil. This ancient Pokémon dominated the skies during the prehistoric era, using its sharp teeth and claws to hunt prey. Its powerful wings allowed it to fly at impressive speeds, making it a formidable aerial predator. Aerodactyl does not have any known evolutions or pre-evolutions, existing as a standalone ancient species. In the Pokémon games, it is often a valuable asset due to its high Attack and Speed stats, making it a strong offensive presence. In the anime, Aerodactyl has been featured in episodes depicting its revival and its powerful presence as a prehistoric creature, often challenging Ash and his Pokémon. Its unique status as a revived fossil Pokémon gives it significant cultural recognition, symbolizing the deep history and scientific aspects within the Pokémon world. Its Rock/Flying typing gives it specific matchups, being weak to Water, Electric, Ice, Rock, and Steel, but resistant to Normal, Flying, Poison, Bug, and Fire. Aerodactyl embodies the raw power and untamed spirit of ancient Pokémon, a true relic of a bygone era.
