Trivia[]

- Aerodactyl is one of only 3 Rock/Flying types. Coincidentally, they are all fossil Pokémon.
- In the games, it is one of the three Pokémon Lance has that is not a Dragon-type, the others being Gyarados and Charizard.
- Strangely, they are all Flying-types.
- Of them, Aerodactyl is the only that isn't a main Starter type.
- This is due to the fact that Aerodactyl is a Fossil Pokemon and all Fossil Pokemon are Rock-types.
- Aerodactyl is the only one that is weak against Steel-type moves.
- Aerodactyl is the only Rock-type Generation 1 Pokemon that doesn't take 4 times the amount of damage from a Grass-type attack.
