Altaria (Japanese: チルタリス, HepburnChirutarisu) (ahl-TAR-ee-uh[1]) is a Dragon/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III. It has a Mega Evolution form which is a Dragon/Fairy type.

Altaria concept art

Concept artwork of Altaria.

Altaria is a blue bird-like dragon Pokémon with a long, slender neck. It has two long feathers on it head. Its most distinctive feature is the white cloud like feathers covering most of its body.

In its Mega Evolution, its cloud-like feathers are located on top of its head, back, and its wings. Its breast area is exposed and its tail feathers are longer.

Behavior[]

In sunny days, Altaria blend themselves with the clouds and fly freely in the sky. They hum to a person that they feel their minds are synchronized with, by gently wrapping them with their tender wings.

Altaria are also known to fly high up in the sky, resembling cottony clouds. They catch updrafts with their buoyant wings to rise effortlessly in the sky. They enjoy flying through clouds, blending in seamlessly into their surroundings. When Altaria roost, they fold their wings inwards and preen their feathers to clean them. They do this every few hours to keep their wings from growing too heavy with dirt. Altaria are in fact famous for their beautiful, melodic singing. They trill with light soprano voices as they fly, making listeners feel like they are dreaming. When they see loved ones, they will engulf them with their pillowy wings and begin to hum.

Although mostly having a kind disposition, they will still threaten their opponents with a shrilling cry before mercilessly attacking them if they are provoked. However, Altaria generally hate conflict and will try to avoid it at all costs; although they can launch intense fireballs at foes when threatened.

Natural abilities[]

When an Altaria sings through the sky in its beautiful soprano voice, anyone listening falls into a happy daydream.

Evolution[]

Altaria evolves from Swablu starting at level 35. It can Mega Evolve into Mega Altaria using its Mega Stone, Altarianite.

Trivia[]

  • Although its Emerald Pokédex entry states that it launches fireballs from its mouth, Altaria can't learn any Fire type moves via level up.
  • Altaria is the only Dragon-type Pokémon to evolve from a Normal-type.
  • As Mega Altaria, it is the only Dragon-type Pokémon that is completely immune to Dragon-type moves.
  • Winona owns an illegal Altaria in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
  • Mega Altaria's type combination (Dragon/Fairy) is unique.

Origin[]

Altaria is presumably based on a cloud and a phoenix. It may also be based on a Peng, a giant bird from Chinese mythology that can travel great distance and has wings that are described as cloud-like. Its Dragon type may be inspired by the Chinese philosophical concept of Dragon and Phoenix, which describes different yet compatible forces such as yin and yang coming together in harmony, and is hence depicted as an Asian dragon and fenghuang dancing while flying about the skies.

Etymology[]

Its name is a mix between alto, meaning high in Spanish, and aria, which is a song or part of a song that is written for only one singer. It may also come from Altair, a star whose name means "The one who flies".
