What I found helpful for if your just starting out look for a level 5 and use a bow not a crossbow b/c a crossbow has a slower reload time. And if you have tribe members online ask them to help, but make sure to change the tribe setting and your tribe member could help. If you are playing on solo just start small with a level 5.

Best way to find and KO one of these bad boys is to take your self and your spy glass down the river they like hangout out there.

Get your self a bola or two with a cross bow and some tranqz.

If you want you can put some wooden spikes around him/her once KOd

Always make sure it's worth to tame a pteranodon by punching in its stats on the Dododex caculator and see whether it wasted points and what you need to put points to like health stamina etc

Great for transport. With enough wieght you can make metal runs. The game is much easier with a flyer.

Try and team up with someone else to knock out the pteranodon.

BE CAREFUL picking up stray pteranodon eggs! If you manage to agro a group of pteras, they can do a lot of damage really quick. If you do this, find a base with plant species X and hide near those.

I'm going to tame one level 2 male ptereadon tame by bola fead meat and boio toxin or anting that torpor and wait

And by the way nock out

If you don’t have a good source of prime meat try to kill sabertooths Salmons is in small rivers or oceans if you have an aquatic creature to get prime fish it will not be as effective but still faster and taming effectiveness will be higher Just don’t do what I did and feed them fish meat I didn’t know that raw meat was more effective I just saw thought since it was a bird it would eat fish so don’t be like me 👍

When taming a pteranodon you need narcotics, if you don’t it’s gonna leave half way, I also recommend making dodo kibble since it’s usually easy to make and it’s the easiest way to tame them. Also if you don’t have that use prime meat, but if you don’t have that use the regular meat, since there torpor is low I recommend feeding them narco berries or narcotics so then you can take them fully without them flying away. If you need to tame them, bola them, then tranq, or slingshot, or hit them to knock it out, then you put everything in.

Every time you level this guy up punch EVERYTHING into ether weight, stamina or on the off point heath

So the best way to tame it is narcotics, narco berries or that stuff the jelly fish things drop. Along with some meet. When it gets close to waking up click the narcotics, narco berries or the jelly fish stuff and click feed. It’ll eat the meat and stay knocked out. You could do this for any creature. You’re welcome <3

For taming easier sleep near at it (don't stray to far)

After you wake up knock this creature and look it's food it's 0

This trick will take andvance for taming and less using narcotics.

Also you can do this for any creature.

By sleeping near at it.

when i tame a pt first time i am very happy to fly him i tame him then my mom come and deleate game ark-mobile 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I really recommend you to tame them in your early state with kibble so that after you unlock its saddle it will be level uped

And you can add levels in his stamina and weight by yourself

Can carry other players. I leard this when my bro (who has a hard time sprinting) pick me up. I think the pterodactyl are as good as argentinas without the weight reduction.

I DONT LIKE DAEDONS(THEY KILLED EVERYTHING)

How to tame.

Step 1 Find a high or low level preferably level 40 or higher that is on the ground.

Step 2 get 8 to 10 narcotics and have at least 10 narco arrows.

Step 3 shoot once in the head until it is knocked out then Feed it any type of meat preferably mutton give it a few narcotics or shoot it once or twice in the wings and Wala you have tamed the pteranodon 😁

Remember to bring narcotic or ur gonna be panicking trying to harvest enough narcoberries to keep it asleep, unless ur on easy and it’s a really low level anyway

How do you incubate pteranodon egg on mobile?

Go to areas between the swamps and redwood forests if you want to tame a pterandon. The swamps’ many predators (ex. Titanoboa) will provide a lot of prime meat and tranq arrows for you, and there are many pteranodons lounging around the area.

In short: Swamps are tranq arrow and prime meat farms (around 2 arrows can knock out a pterandon). Pterandons spawn a lot between the biomes. This is a mass taming farm.
