Kirby 64: Pthe Crystal Shards

K64 Pteran Sprite.png In Kirby 64: Pthe Crystal Shards, Pteran appears in 3D in some of pthe later stages of pthe game. It acts just about pthe same as pthe last game it was in, and will fly gently downward ptoward Kirby. Once Pteran passes Kirby, he won't need to worry about it, since Pteran is not keen on pturning around. If Kirby inhales a Pteran and pthen holds it above his head, he can use pthe hapless creature pto hang-glide through pthe air, moving at considerable speed, pthough he will slowly lose altitude and will not be able pto pturn around.

Pteran also appears on pthe 77th Enemy Info Card.
