Ight so find one,shoot it with a tranq the pump narcotics into it,some raw meat,if torpor is low,pump some narcotics,go back and make more,pump more narcotics in(also I'd recommend making the saddle first,already went through that hell)and let it tame,it will take a while,but it'll. Be worth it,they can fly so fast of ya always upgrade movement speed,weight,and stam.

How do you tame a Pteronodon?

-Knocking out and taming-

Well first you need to find one and be sure it's a high level. It's not too hard finding one because their mostly flying everywhere. But before you start to tame it, make dodo kibble first (on mobile and console only). When you have found the one you want use a bola on it and knock it out, I recommend tranq arrows which can be unlocked at level 21 (I think). Then feed it with the dodo kibble you made and wait a few minutes, make sure you have narcotic on you just in case.

-Stats-

If it's a low level it doesn't have much health, stamina, or weight carry so I recommend you finding a high level one. Even tho they don't have much stamina or health, they are very fast and can get around the island very quickly, tho you might have to make frequent pit stops.

-Tips-

1. You can do a barrel roll with a Pteronodon. To do this go to settings and choose right multi-tap then choose "reload/alt attack 2".

2. You can pick stuff up with your Pteronodon, tho you can only pick up dodo's and dilo's.

Thank you for reading

How to tame you will need a bola,a wooden bat any type of meat and bio toxin/narcotics when it’s on the ground throw the bola at it and hit it with your bat now when it’s unconscious feed it your meat and wait a little then if it’s almost conscious feed it your bio toxin/narcotics you need to kill Cnidarias for bio toxin and you will need the mortar and pestle to get the narcotics unlocked now look at your area to see if there are any carnivores around if there is kill them now you have a pterodon

Yeah I take her everywhere. When I need prime meat or chitin I just use her to massacre dead island (700%+ melee damage really helps with this). If you wish to do the same just be really mindful of stamina when fighting raptors cuz they can force dismount you if your pteranodon stays on the ground.

How to tame Pteranodon without the smoothing balm!, it's easy↓

Materials: Need to tame Pteranodon faster:

1) Make Tranq arrows at least according to your weapon power (example your bow give damage of 350 of 1 hit and 1160 of Torpor).

2) Carry a sleeping bag.

3) Make a dodos kibble at least 10 and carry 40-80 raw meats.

4) Make a Bola.

You are ready to tame now↓

First find some good level Pteranodon and make sure there are no carnivores dinos.

And then wait for midnight watch on your dino when Pteranodon come down for a rest to fill his stamina then place your sleeping bag near to visible between you and Pteranodon and then go to sleep

When you wokeup then immediately bola to Pteranodon and knocked him out

You will see (Pteranodon foods stats is 0) his health will be draining that time then put your dodos kibble in Pteranodon inventory after put raw meats

Just wait 5-7 mins!

Now it will tame faster ⚡without smoothing balm even🙂
