Aerodactyl thrives as a phenomenal Mixed Tank perfect for single battles. First generation Pokemon had alot of struggles to deal with. Keep in mind back before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
◆ Hyper Beam is a physical 150-base power Normal-type move (can't move next turn if target or sub is not koed). ◆ Double-Edge is a physical 100-base power Normal-type move (has 1/4 recoil). ◆ Sky Attack is a physical STAB-boosted 140-base power Flying-type move (charges turn 1. Hits turn 2). ◆ Wing Attack is a physical STAB-boosted 35-base power Flying-type move that deals damage. ◆ Reflect is a status move (while active, your Aerodactyl's defense is doubled). ◆ Substitute is a status move (Aerodactyl takes 1/4 its max hp to put in a substitute).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula.

Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
