I like it but that's it. For a legendary that is supposed to represent Tera, I find it kind of underwhelming. This (and its smaller form) look more like regular (but rare) pokemon that would spawn only in Area Zero.

It's a cute idea it's just a little weird they did a second world turtle Pokemon and tried to make it more fantastical. Game Freak seems to have this idea that they can reuse ideas if they just raise the stakes a little more going from a pretty general monster design idea to suddenly now it's a God-tier Legendary
>>
>>58183794
if it didn't have the single most idiotic type meme "epic" ability and gimmick ever put pen-to-paper in pokemon history it would be fine, really. But it's currently LITERALLY what all cartoons in the late 90's and mid-2000's were parodying pokemon as.

If I told you we would have a crystal galapagos turtle ufo gamera legendary 10 years ago people would have been interested. If I told you that it had a new stellar-type that resisted everything then there would have been groans and complaining. GF shoots themselves in the foot, again.

just give it pre-nerf protean and make terablast match its current type

Oh you sweet summer child. The Dexcut will turn this little Testudinidae into turtle soup.

Kek it does look like a more hairy Wartortle. I think a dex entry even says it turns blue as it gets older. Looks closer to Wartortle than Blastoise does.
>>
>>58185212
It's based on the same animal/myth so that makes perfect sense.

The Terastal Form should be it's base form
>>
>>58186094
the terastal form should be an evolution and the tera mechanic should be scrapped
>>
>>58183818
They shot themselves in the foot by having the book design and describe it as being way more impressive/threatening than it actually was. There was no reason as to why it's tera form still has it look goofy and cutesy instead of an aggressive world turtle that's pissed it had to go that far. Not to mention it's a fucking gimmick mon and unlike Zygarde, it's gimmick is completely tied to a whole generation/game so it's going to be absolutely useless outside of it until Gamefreak puts tera mons into another mainline generation.
>>
>>58183794
I like it. In that form at least, not so much the others.
It's just that it was implemented pretty fucking poorly in the game and is a bit underwhelming as such an important legendary (for the game anyway)
>>
>>58186197
>entire basis for a whole fucking game/generation

Lol this is like having Kyorge or Groudon show up in the last 5 mins of RSE and then you only see Rayquaza in the credits.

The only thing terapagos has in common is the jet stream exhaust burning from where the legs should be and it's ability to fly.

that seems a lot more distinctly gamera-esque than being a bipedal, robust turtle with claws and tusks. Blastoise hits 3/4 of those too lol

Its also a blue turtle with a blue hairy tail. I dont think any other turtle Pokémon has that besides Wartprtle and this fella. Blastoise doesnt even have it. Lol

>>58188349
Wartortle's tail isn't even hairy

>>58188475
I stand corrected. It's still a futile point tho since the long tailed turtle *is* a symbol of longevity irl too, it's not a pokemon thing you know. Terapagos and Wartortle are both turtles wich are associated with the sea, hence the blue color (same as Carracosta or Drednaw), and with many turtle pokemon it's normal that the minogame tail shows up more than once.
It's like saying Baxcalibur, Duraludon and Tyranitar are all from the same line because they are godzilla references when that's completely normal when you make a big ass lizard monster
>>
>>58185251
>If I told you that it had a new stellar-type that resisted everything
Stellar has no resistances, tera shell only works at full health and only if it doesn't tera on that turn. Entry hazards cancel out tera shell.
>>
>>58188500
Baxcalibur, Duraludon and Tyranitar are much more distinct than Wartortle and Terapagos. Not even an issue. Just intersting, looks like Wartortles lost third evolution that went all in with the fur instead of growing cannons and shedding all its fur.

Absolutely not, Baxcalibur, Duraludon and Tyranitar have pretty similar basic body shapes and stances. Terapagos and Wartortle look radically different, this would have to be digimon for them to be remotely related
>>

How the hell could anyone hate cool gem turtle when last gen gave us THE BRAIN and his two faggot horses? I'd take turtle over discount Great Grey Wolf Sif or the two faggy fursona kung fu bears any day too.

You're not wrong.

Not really. Wartortle's shell grew and its fur grew out more becoming more prominent. Colors are even really close. Only think throwing it off is the element symbols.
>>58188539

Huh yeah Groudon or Kyogre show up only in the climax of the story, then you have a bike minigame a see a cutscene of Rayquaza flying and roaring
>>
>>58188711
Im confused fused these are way closer than Baxcalibur, Duraludon and Tyranitar just different shades of blue and Wartortle just has some brown tones. Dis ingenious to say they aren't close. Alot closer than say Dragonair and Dragonite or Faaffy and Ampharos

>>58186131
Tera is still in Champions though so you can use it in Ubers there. I'm pretty sure Champions is just Gamefreak giving up on putting everything competitive into mainline unless you need to make a Trick Room Team.
>>
>>58188738
The kaijus have different colors but are closer in themes and body shape, same about your other samples. Terapagos and Wartortle are both turtles with the japanese long lived tail yeah, but that's all about it, they don't look like they would be related unless this was digimon where you could have Sharpedo evolve into Kyogre lmao

Gay turtle legend is decent in my book. It rounds out the Tera theme better than most mascots. Not my favorite legend in the region, but I think it's neat.

Anon did you see what Sharpedo evolves from? Wartortle evolving into Terapagos isnt really that weird. They are the same animal based on the same myth with similar color pallets and design motifs. Terapagos just has those crystals and elemental symbols. Really not even that much weirder than Wartortle losing its fur/Squirell design auestic and go full turtle while growing canons that had 0 indication they were their in previous evos.

I’d argue Wartortle is a Minogame, and Terapagos is more a Bixi? The Crystal in the middle of Terapagos shell actually leans more towards the Bixi funeral stele, and it explains its dragon-turtle appearance. I mean it’s *also* a Minogame based of Urashima Taro’s ride, but just saying my two cents.

No thanks. Horizons killed any chance of that for me by turning it into a cute mascot and shoving it down our throats

Really? Most people I know like it enough. Just another legendary that looks pretty I guess. Not like my favorite but I can't say I hate it or anything. Kind of the same way with Diancie.

>>58190538
way to completely disregard his point
>>
>>58191021
Hmm? Oh, no, I just stated a thought, cause I was bored. It was basically just me putting a foot in the door. I’ve just been ruminating on Terapagos’ design, because everyone calls Stellar form a world turtle. It isn’t, and I’m thinking it’s peoples pattern seeking brains stuck on the fact a small not-an-actual-turtle is on top of an actual turtle, on top of not-a-turtle-at-all, so where is it turtles all the way down? Anyway, looking up some design inspiration, and the fact Terapagos is more Tortoise than turtle in its small design, I think a change of the view of its design is needed.
>>
>>58183794
Everything about it Pre-DLC is way more interesting than the actual creature in itself.
>>
>>58191431
hmmm... I'll let you off this time, but I'm watching you...
>>
>>58183794
this guy's gonna look REAL silly when they add more types again in a gen or two
>>
>>58190509
Carvanha and Sharpedo still have similar aesthetics and markings. Wartortle and Terapagos don't, Terapagos for starters doesn't even look like a legendary but a straight up mythical with those eeary dreamy colors, Wartortle would never evolve into that
