What planet has many craters but no atmosphere?
There are probably a very great number of planets in our galaxy with no atmosphere. Of the 400+ planets that we know of, we can only determine the presence or absence of an atmosphere for the 8 planets in THIS solar system; our technology is not yet good enough to study atmospheres from several light-years distance. Of the planets of this solar system, we are fairly sure that Mercury has no atmosphere to speak of. Of the other seven, we know that Mars has a very thin atmosphere, but enough to use a parachute in. If we include dwarf planets, we can say with some certainty that Ceres doesn't have enough mass to retain an atmosphere, and Pluto's atmosphere is almost certainly all frozen by now.

Do only the inner planets have atmospheres?
Negative, not only do the inner planets have atmospheres, but the outer planets also have atmospheres. The masses of the outer planets are great, enough easily to hold an atmosphere. In fact it's Mercury, an inner planet, that has almost no atmosphere. True, Mercury has a less mass and the closeness to the sun make it impossible to hold on a atmosphere. As matter in fact, Mars had a atmosphere, but the solar wind had almost eaten all the atmosphere that Mars had.
