Astrodactyl is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of an unknown species from the planet Terradino.
Appearance
Astrodactyl resembles a cross between a Pterodactyl and a glider. He has a large yellow beak-like mouth, green eyes, red skin, black and green clothing on his shoulders and waist, green braces around his wrists and ankles, and small, yellow, retractable wings that resemble a glider in appearance which are connected to a 'jetpack'-like structure on his back.

Astrodactyl is capable of flying through the aid of his 'jetpack', and with his retractable wings proving stability for this ability. He can create a propulsion blast from his jetpack using some kind of internalized star power to enhance his flight.[1][DJW 2]
Astrodactyl's star power can be used to create different forms of weapons,[DJW 2] the most common weapon being energy whips.
Astrodactyl can use his star power to fire an energy beam from his mouth.[2]
Astrodactyl possesses enhanced strength, as he was able to rip off goo that was difficult for Ben and Rook to escape from[3] and pull one of the Techadon robots tied up to his energy whips.[4] He is also strong enough to carry and lift a Cerebrocrustacean with his prehensile feet.[2]
Astrodactyl can survive in the vacuum of space.[5][DJW 3]
Weaknesses
