Tri-Ptera (トリプテラ) is a pteranodon-type Medarot that only appears in Medarot Navi. An avian reptile (but not a dinosaur) of the late Cretaceous period.

Description[edit]

Tri-Ptera fulfills a defensive role. Its Arms will Randomize into Defense parts each turn while its Head has the passive Super Sense ability. Its Leg part is an Air type, leaving it vulnerable to Anti-Air attack.

By folding its arms, head and tail inward, Tri-Ptera becomes a large floating shield. Its Drive A is Lesser Defense, allowing it to take damage in place of its allies. Drives B and C will despense Fighting and Shooting Traps.

In the games[edit]

In Medarot Navi[edit]

Tri-Ptera is the third of five Fossil Medarots faced in the final act of the game. It is first fought by the Space Robo general, Smog, who is beaten and tied up before turning on Kasumi's party. It leads two Pupa Beetles and two Pupa Stags into battle.

The "Tri" in its name is part of a theme with its fellow Fossil Medarots: Mono-Cruziana, Di-Tyranno, Quar-Brachio and Zero-Suicide. It also forms the basis for Zero-Suicide's Right Arm part and its Counter action.

In addition, Tri-Ptera, Di-Tyranno and Quar-Brachio may reference the Select Corps' Air-Ptera, Attack-Tyranno and Land-Brachio, respectively.
