Winona's Altaria (Japanese: ナギのチルタリス Nagi's Tyltalis) is a Pokémon owned by Winona in the games, anime, and manga.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga
History
Altaria first appeared in the Ruby & Sapphire arc where Flannery and Winona rode it in search of Norman. After finding Norman, Altaria departed with the three Gym Leaders. It was later seen with Winona while waiting for the Hoenn Gym Leaders (save for Flannery who already made the call and Tate and Liza who are unable to make it).
After Sapphire arrived in Fortree City, Altaria battled her Combusken. During Combusken's evolution into Blaziken, Altaria was hit by Chic's Blaze Kick. The impact gave Altaria a chance to recover while hiding in the sky. Altaria came down with Sky Attack and defeated Chic. After the battle, Altaria trained Chic to get stronger and Winona pointed out to Sapphire about her attacks. Altaria flew away with Winona when Winona got a call from someone.
Later, Altaria flew around in Hoenn with Winona and Sapphire on her Troppy, witnessing a drought and heavy rain. They stopped by Route 123. Winona and Altaria separated from Sapphire and Troppy, and then flew to where the SSS was. Altaria entered by firing a DragonBreath at Shelly and Matt and then fought them alongside her Skarmory. When Wattson was defeated, Altaria attempted to dive after Wattson to save him but Matt prevented Altaria from listening to Winona by having his Sharpedo use Taunt.
Altaria flew to the Pokémon Association’s headquarters and dropped off Flannery and Wattson to rest up from their injuries while both Altaria and its Trainer flew to Sootopolis City. Winona picked up Sapphire and went on Altaria to evacuate the area since Absol’s Magic Coat was wearing off.
Personality and characteristics
Altaria has been used by Winona more often, more than any other of her Pokémon. As such, Altaria was happy to work alongside Winona.

History
Altaria's only appearance in the anime was in Sky High Gym Battle!.
It was the first Pokémon Winona sent out during the Gym battle with Ash, pitting it with Ash's Grovyle. Altaria's Peck clashed with Grovyle's Bullet Seed. Altaria tried Peck again but Grovyle avoided the hit by jumping on a totem pole in the battle field and did a backflip. Altaria attacked with DragonBreath next which successfully hit. When Altaria attempted to use DragonBreath again, Grovyle dodged and attacked with Bullet Seed which did very little to Altaria. Altaria used DragonBreath the third time but Grovyle leaped in the air and attacked with Leaf Blade from above. This caused Altaria to lose despite having a type-advantage.
Personality and characteristics
Very little is known about Altaria's personality as it was only seen battling Grovyle. However, during battle, it was shown to have great strength as shown when Ash and Grovyle reacted to it and were struggling at first.
