Aerodactyl [1st Edition] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Aerodactyl’s Fossil holo is famous for its disruptive Prehistoric Power, a Pokémon Power that shuts off Evolution cards entirely and gave this card a uniquely oppressive identity in early WotC-era play.
In-Game
This card’s Prehistoric Power has a special bit of history for game fans: its Japanese name matches Ancient Power, the move later introduced in Generation II that Aerodactyl can learn in the video games.
Set Lore
Fossil Aerodactyl was released in English as both holo and non-holo, but in Japan’s Mystery of the Fossils expansion it debuted only as a holofoil, giving the original print extra prestige for vintage collectors.
Card History
Aerodactyl made an unforgettable early-anime impression by debuting in “Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon,” where it snatched Ash and reinforced its image as one of Kanto’s most ferocious revived Fossil Pokémon.
Artist
The artwork is by Kagemaru Himeno, one of the defining illustrators of classic Pokémon TCG history, whose work has been part of the franchise since the early years and is deeply tied to the nostalgic look of vintage sets.
