Why does it have scales?
its a synapsid, there is no evidence that synapsids had scales and the one time we found scales associated with a synapsid they turned out to be fish scales the animal ate

Because I had been doing dragons for the past week, and accidentally started doing scales on it, then remembering that they didn't have scales, so it ended up having both scales and skin...

Yah, I could've erased the scales, but I really didn't want to... Because then I'd have to redraw the face.

Geez, people need to stop naming prehistoric animals after Pokemon. First Aerodactylus, now this. That is two too much.
