    FILE DATA IS CLASSIFIED. HIGHEST LEVEL CLEARANCE NEEDED TO VIEW.    The creation of the Dameosaur in AS 214 (CE 2206) was a boon to Sanctuary’s defenses. They were easier to control than the other types used before, were more powerful, fiercer, more durable, in every way an improvement. They could even be used as mounts in their battle forms if need be. But it wasn’t enough. They had ground troops, but they needed air support as well. To that end, they tried a simple experiment: Gather every evolution stone they had and see what affected Dameosaurs. The end result of that was the Pterodame.
    Pterodames, along with Nessidames and Dameosaurs, were instrumental in defending the landscape during the 1st Frontier War. Human incursions into Sanctuary-controlled territory were getting dangerously close to Sanctuary itself. And with the fact that Sanctuary’s previous guardians, Cheetits and other wildcat types, were being caught and Tamed en masse, Sanctuary needed the dinosaur Pokégirls as a means of protecting themselves. Granted, Sanctuary’s presence in other Leagues, rescuing and relocating children abandoned by their parents out of fear of them going through Threshold, was part of the reason attention was drawn to Sanctuary in the first place. From this, League leaders, headed up by a committee headed by Vince McMahon Senior, father of Vincent Kennedy McMahon of the Capital League, launched an investigation into the Dark Continent to discover the source of these mysterious ‘dark angels.’
    Very few of the Tamers and Pokégirls sent back in made it back home. Most were killed by Sanctuary’s dinosaur forces, their Pokégirls either taken in by Sanctuary or killed outright in combat. Those that returned had been driven insane, telling stories of lizard girls turning into monsters, being ridden by shadowy demonesses (REAL demonesses, not Pokégirl-types). It was only after the (CLASSIFIED) began to get into contact with League officials that we began to learn about Sanctuary and their dinosaur Pokégirls at all.
    Pterodames are short, lizardlike Pokégirls, around five feet five inches tall with greenish-brown skin. They differ from Dameosaurs in that they lack the spiked toe-claws or the sharp teeth in their ‘normal mode.’ Their eyes are varying shades of red, black, or gold. Their tails shrink down until they become almost vestigial, and possess a lightweight protective exoskeleton to compensate for their newly lightweight bone structure. They also have small webbed wings underneath their arms that allow for limited gliding, and a thicker coating of feathers on their head than their Dameosaur counterparts. Their teeth aren’t as sharp as those of a Dameosaur, their bodies adapting to a more omnivorous diet.
    Like Dameosaurs and Nessidames, they have a ‘normal mode,’ which was described above, and a ‘battle mode,’ a completely dinosaur-esque form that allows them greater attacking power. For Pterodames, they turn into a form resembling that of a pterodactyl. Their wings grow out tremendously, their heads elongating into massive beaks, their bodies growing in size as they become, essentially, a massive bird. Their exoskeleton retracts into their body, becoming an endoskeleton which armors them for battle mode. Their head has the most armoring in battle mode, allowing for the lethality of their Beak Lancer attack. When harnessed properly, a Pterodame can be used as an aerial mount for a single rider.
    Pterodames are markedly more pleasant to deal with than Dameosaurs. They are cheerful, friendly Pokégirls, even when fighting. They tend to greet people they like with friendly nips to the ears, and are easy to please. (They consider any kind of fruit to be a wonderful gift.) All observed Pterodames have the strange mental quirk of calling any kind of favored food a ‘Nom.’ They also have a rather unusual means of speaking which cannot be properly expressed in text. There have been a few that do not have this manner of speech, however.
    Pterodames primarily are used for aerial scouting and reconnaissance. Patrols consisting of two Pterodames with one rider each can be seen around the perimeter of many Sanctuary-controlled territories in the Dark Continent. They are not as suited to battle as Dameosaurs and Nessidames, but are very agile and fast in the air, especially in battle mode. Their aerial speed is seconded only by Skarmories.
    Data on Pterodame Threshold is limited. Sanctuary guards their Dameosaurs and their evolutions closely, making sure that they produce exclusively through parthenogenesis. However there is a point of interest about Pterodames; The friendly dinosaur Pokégirls seem to be very interested in meeting new people, and are fascinated by men. So much so that many Sanctuary officials have gone to great lengths to keep Pterodames away from male exposure…
