It has feet with three forward claws and one backward.


Its main attacking prowess involves charging head-first into its opponents. When it lived in dense forests and jungles 100 million years ago, it would use headbutts to snap obstructing trees, down its prey, and combat other Pokémon like {{p|Aerodactyl}}. It notably lacks any intelligence.
