Fast and powerful mount,which is easy to tame and level up
Pteranodon
The pteranodon is a fast and versatile flying mount useful for traveling and scouting, though not always the ideal choice for battle. Knocking a pteranodon out doesn't take much, but can still be a challenge since it will immediately flee after being attacked. Once knocked out, taming is quite easy in comparison to other creatures, and with its low saddle requirements, this makes it an especially popular creature for newer survivors while still being versatile enough for more experienced survivors. What the pteranodon lacks in stamina, weight, and health, it makes up with its speed.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I collect all my pteranadon's eggs and my other dinosaurs eggs 🥚 and bring them in the house 🏠 to incubate them so they so they hatch to cute dino babies!!🦕🦖
PT su KMIGHT AS WELL TAME A DAMN ARGY

You have a better chance of bola-ing it when it’s landed but these things eat slow and wake up quick, so I’d suggest get some narcotics and tranq arrows. Kibble would be the fastest way, Dodo Kibble is probably the best.
It's fun to do a barrel roll with them but be careful! It costs alot of stamina and there's a chance you might knock your Pteranadon out midair, causing you to dismount and both of you crashing to the ground below. If you're alive, you need only to wait for…
It's fun to do a barrel roll with them but be careful! It costs alot of stamina and there's a chance you might knock your Pteranadon out midair, causing you to dismount and both of you crashing to the ground below. If you're alive, you need only to wait for him/her to wake up or feed them stimberrys. Always keep an eye on your stamina bar and find safe spots to land and catch it's breath before taking flight again. :D
First get a bow and tranks.
Second find and knock out.
third let it starve then give it tameing food.
Then you got your self a pteranodon.
Tek bow is usually one hit for any level.
All you need to tame this is a bola and if you complete the kill three dilos quest you get a really good bow so use that to knock it out easily in one shot knock out
Very effective as a fighter when you aren’t high enough lvl to get the saddle and can carry a little stuff for when your busy putting your upgrades into more useful things like speed, because we all know speed is essential to any escape maneuver, or jumping off cliffs, the AI…

If you want to tame these guys my style you need to: 1. Find a pteranodon,2. Hit and follow it (P.S hit it until it gets unconscious). 3. Feed them raw meat, ( and to make the torpor stay high, you need about 100 or so of the bio-toxins, 4. Name and put a saddle on it.

HOPE THIS WORKS!
I wish this thing had a peck down attack, also with the quetz
If I were you I would upgrade the stamina most of the time of the pteranodon because you might be battling then your stamina goes down then the pteranodon flies to the floor (also upgrade weight otherwise the pteranodon will fly slow)
Easy tip! If you found a ptera lvl low by 90 bola it, equip your rifle, reload, get near it shoot the head only ONCE then its K.O already. Have a perfect taming!
Is it just me, or do these guys have way more stamina than on pc? And how do you do a barrel roll? I'm going crazy trying to find out how.
Guys is it safe to usey my pteradon on going to volcano?
It might just be me but it seems these things tame faster when you are away from them! Just check on them every now and then to make sure they aren’t going to wake up before they are tamed!
My first pteradon and i were flyin hunting for carnos, and we landed i dismounted the next thing i attacked a pack of dimorphodons and it attacked emm and one remained my pteradon chased it to the sky where it flew up and now i cant even see it with a scope i built a base there…

Any ideas to help me get it down?
Barrel roll works really well especially when you’re good at using it you can hit things without being attacked. I play on a level 300 single player game and my ptera has health and melee mutations but I basically got to level 70 with only that tame. :)
