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.
Easy tame guide for mobile grab two bolas in case you miss one get 12 narcotics. A bow and four tranqs with some uncooked meat or fish meat Bola the pteranodon then tranq the beast. give it the meat a narcotic every now and then. Say hello to the beast that’s now yours and just like that you have a good tame. saddle at level 38. Go to settings right multi touch and click reload/attack2 use two fingers to click and use barol roll .
I was fighting a raptor and then a pterodactyl just comes and attacks me for no reason
Bola and feed dodo kibble and meat. Then you have a loyal protector.
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
shoot it down like a clay pidgeon with anything capable of putting it to sleep
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
A level 9,999 will take u 37 shocking track darts to the head so ya
Use a bola then get your club and if you have dodo kibble it will take fast
I was forced to land in the middle of a fight between a pack of allos and a scorpion they were fighting. Needless to say It didn't end well.
I’m on ragnarock, and I found a 140 and I somehow knocked it out with 2 tranq arrows? I’m assuming this is a glitch but it was a good one I guess because then I tamed it up with mutton and named her hetty thank the ark gods 🙏

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.
What does it need to tame wild knockout?
On Ragnarok if you spawn in highlands, you can knock it out with an equus. Since ovis also spawn there, you can kill some to get raw mutton and it’ll tame the pt faster with better stats.
Bola and wooden club to the head of you need a quick tame for a ride
Use a bola first then hit with knock it out it really helps unless you like the chase
