Biology

Altaria appears to be a cross between a dragon and a bird. Its cloud-like wings that wrap underneath its body are not wings in the traditional avian sense, but they are used like normal wings at any rate. Two tendrils, possibly feathers, come off the back of its head.

Altaria carries a highly refined set of vocal chords among Pokémon. It sings and trills beautiful melodies (which has been described as a gorgeous soprano) in its crystal-clear voice as its pastime in the mountains, making its listeners experience dreamy wonderment. But although it seems unlikely, Altaria also carries a flame sac within its body (compare with Torchic), which it uses to launches intensely hot fireballs from its mouth in self defense from attackers. During migration, Altaria wheels through the sky among billowing, cotton-like clouds, supported by aerial updrafts in the sky that it catches with its buoyant wings in order to soar.

In the video games

Altaria is available in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. It can be evolved from Swablu at level 35, or caught in the fifth floor of Sky Pillar, where it can reach up to level 60, thus making it the highest-level wild Pokémon in the game, save Rayquaza, and Kyogre and Groudon in Pokémon Emerald. It can also be taken from Cipher Admin Lovrina at Citadark Isle.

Generally, Altaria is an underused Pokémon. Its Natural Cure ability compliments its defensive stat arrangement and multiple resistances. Unfortunately, the vast majority of its movepool is offensive, which is less than useful to a Pokémon whose major stats are its defenses; particularly when said Pokémon (Altaria) has attack stats that are subpar (though not awful).

Even in underused gameplay, Altaria is seldom used. Generally, it is a utility role of sorts, since it sports moves such as Heal Bell (the Altaria in PokémonXD, when purified, receives the opportunity to learn Heal Bell), Haze, Sing, etc. Unfortunately, therein lies another problem. Altaria sports a crippling Ice weakness and Rock weakness, which destroys its ability to effectively take hits; generally, Altaria runs in, helps the team, uses Rest to recover HP and switches. It is also used by people who find legendary (Mewtwo, Groudon, Suicune, etc.) or "sub-legendary" pokémon (Dragonite, Metagross, Salamence, etc.) not to their tastes, but fancy the Dragon type. Altaria is one of or possibly the only Dragon type that is not sub-legendary or legendary.

Generally, people just use the classic Dragonite or popular Salamence over Altaria. Altaria's common use is to learn Dragon Dance at level 40 and then - through breeding - pass the move onto Salamence. Dragonite (カイリュー Kairyu in Japan, Dragoran in Germany and Dracolosse in France) is a fictional dragon Pokémon, from the Pokémon franchise. ... Salamence (Boomander ボーマンダ Bōmanda in Japanese, Brutalanda in German and Drattak in French) is a fictional character from the Pokémon franchise. ...

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, Winona, the leader of Fortree Gym, uses a Level 33 female Altaria that knows the moves Aerial Ace, Dragonbreath, Dragon Dance, and Earthquake. Altaria is also trained by Bird Keepers and Dragon Trainers, as well as the Elite Four challenger Drake. It can learn any move that Swablu can, as well as Dragonbreath and Dragon Dance. It is the only non-legendary Pokémon that learns Sky Attack naturally.
