Pteradon

**Debut** | TBA

**Pteradon** is the Simplicitrix/Stabilized Simplicitrix's DNA sample of a Monsetanus Dorn from the planet Monsekai.

## Appearance

Pteradon is an enormous pterosaur-like alien with dark mustard yellow scales, extremely long wings extending from the back of his arms colored a dark reddish brown that become a lighter orange gradient the further up they go, and a long bladed beak with a pronounced brow, both of which are also colored reddish brown. Pteradon has a large frill extending from the top of his head, patterned with vibrant green almond-shaped stripes, a very skinny torso with pronounced ribs, long limbs each ending with three claws, and a short tail.

Pteradon wears the Simplicitrix on his left shoulder.

## Powers

* Pteradon can fly at supersonic levels, allowing him to easily outmaneuver supersonic jets despite his much larger size and weight.
* Pteradon can generate powerful tornados, hurricanes, and gusts of winds through a limited form of atmokinesis.
* Pteradon can emit dangerous radon gas in the form of energized pulses or radioactive mists around himself.
* Pteradon has bio-volcanic nature, with its applications allowing him to summon volcanos and forcing them to erupt, and spew torrents of lava from his mouth, as his organs continuously generate immense heat that breaks down whatever he consumes into a molten consistency.
	+ Pteradon can alternatively project his molten breath in the form of massive fireballs or extreme heatwaves to barrage his opponents.
	+ Pteradon can heal himself through absorbing and dunking himself within magma, also capable of breathing within them as if he was underwater, with exposure towards fire and radioactive materials additionally aiding in revitalizing him, although fire isn't as effective as other methods of regeneration.
	+ Pteradon has thick hardened scales with the preporties of cooled magma that gives him much higher resistance towards attacks.
* Pteradon has smoke affinity that allows him to transform into pure smoke should he accumulate enough heat to do so, temporarily becoming invulnerable towards all physical blows due to his low density, enhancing his flight speeds through gaseous propulsion, and even imbuing himself with the preporties of his radioactive mists in order to make his very proximity deadly in nature.
* Pteradon has enhanced durability, endurance, speed, and agility, all aided by his immense size.
* Pteradon has a sharp beak and talons.

## Weaknesses

* Pteradon has limited resilience despite his massive size and durable scales, as enough damage overtime can eventually breach his durability threshold and crack straight through his hardened scales.
* Pteradon's radioactive gas abilities are dangerous in nature due to their harmfulness towards most other species, meaning overusage can cause serious damage towards his surroundings and even worse, his own allies.
* Pteradon's smoke form can be taken advantage of through opponents capable of smoke manipulation.

## Etymology

* Pteradon's name is a play on "pteranodon" and "radon," not only referring to his radioactive abilities, but also his kaiju inspiration, with Radon being the Japanese name for Rodan.
* Pteradon's species name is a play on "Monsekai," his planet name, "Titanus," the prefix of the Titan species from the MonsterVerse film series, and Friedrich Ernst Dorn, the German physicist who discovered radon.

## Trivia

* Pteradon's powerset was done by Ghost King. His design was made using the *Ben 10: Omniverse* design of *The Secret Saturdays* character Zon, similar to how Anspikelosaurus was made using a composite using another Secret Saturdays character, Komodo.
* Pteradon pays homage to Rodan.
