Air-Ptera (エアプテラ) is a pteranodon-type Medarot that first appeared in Medarot 2.

Description[edit]

Air-Ptera is a flying Medarot that specializes in close-range attacks. With its head part it can reveal any hiding opponents, and it can attack with its arm parts as if they were blades. It often apears as a Medarot used by the Select Force.

In the games[edit]

Air-Ptera is a flying-type Medarot with Sword attacks on its arms. In Medarot 2 and R, its head part is a Conceal Clear action, but in Medarot 2 Core it was replaced with Scan.

Air-Ptera was one of the Medarots not present in the original Medarot Card Game to receive cards in Medarot Cardrobottle.

In Medarot 2[edit]

Air-Ptera appears as a member of the Select Three (Select Trio) as "Select Yellow", alongside Attack-Tyranno and Land-Brachio.

In Medarot R[edit]

Is obtainable from the Parts Collection by fighting たいちょう that is ranked opponent number 9.

In 2 Core[edit]

It is obtainable through battles with the Select corps via random encounters and required battles throughout the game, and also used by the select 3 enemy. Its head is now a support type, using the scout/scan ability.

In the anime[edit]

Appearing similar in shape to military jet aircraft, Air-Ptera Medarots are shown in the Medarot anime series with wings attached to their backs. The Pocket Sword and Microsword are used for a different purpose - instead of close-combat, the Left- and Right-Arms of the Air-Ptera are used to grip spherical incendiary explosives which are then released (seemingly often in mass numbers) from a higher altitude onto the area of a target. This tactic is listed in the dub as PTL-162012's specialty, the Bomb Attack.

It appeared when Giant Emperor was wreacking havoc towards the city. The Select Corps were trying to stop it, and an army of Land-Brachios, Attack-Tyrannos, and Air-Pteras appeared to stop it.
