The [[Scarlet Book]], which named the creature, describes how it attacked the Area Zero Expedition team with its large body and tusks, fatally injuring one of the explorers in the process.<ref>(November 8, 2022). "[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/books/ The Scarlet Book and the Violet Book]." Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website</ref> An article from a September issue of {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} magazine describes Great Tusk as a mysterious life-form resembling {{p|Donphan}}, albeit one with gigantic tusks, tough scales, and an aggressive disposition. Unlike its present-day and future relatives, Great Tusk is never seen curling up into a ball, perhaps prevented by its enormous tusks. There is an unproven theory that the Great Tusk is a living relic of the dinosaur era. | ||
Great Tusk was the first [[Paradox Pokémon]] to be discovered 200 years ago in [[Area Zero]] by the Area Zero Expedition team and recorded by [[Heath]] in his Scarlet Book. According to AI Sada, Great Tusk is an ancient Pokémon related to Donphan. However, according to a Sada brought to the [[Crystal Pool]] by {{p|Terapagos}}, Great Tusk is a counterpart of Donphan from another timeline. Its true origin is unknown. Great Tusk were brought to the depths of Area Zero by a [[time machine]] built by Professor Sada ten years ago. At some point, one individual escaped Area Zero and consumed [[Herba Mystica]]. This Great Tusk became the Quaking Earth Titan, one of the [[Titan Pokémon]] found in the [[Paldea]] region. | |||
