Collector Insights

Aerodactyl is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. Its primary attack, Rising Lunge, requires one Fighting and one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage plus an additional 20 if a coin flip results in heads. The card includes a Poké-Power called Ancient Wind, which allows the player to ignore all Poké-Bodies during their turn if Aerodactyl is the Active Pokémon, provided it is not affected by a Special Condition. Aerodactyl is part of the Skyridge set, released in May 2003, and is numbered as the first card in its series. The card's theme color is a warm golden hue, matching its Fighting-type classification. It has a Water weakness that multiplies damage by two, making it vulnerable to such attacks. Designed by artist Toshinao Aoki, this Rare card emphasizes Aerodactyl's aerial combat capabilities through its abilities and attack mechanics.
