Am I misunderstanding, or is it not possible to get EVs from Normal-form Terapagos, due to it automatically becoming its Terastal form?

== Shiny Stellar Form Model not displaying == | |||
Thought I'd mention that in the sprites/models section at the bottom of the page, the HOME model for shiny stellar Terapagos is actually the normal model, not the shiny one. | |||

::This is intentional, Shiny Terastal form is the same as non-Shiny. -[[User:Minibug|Minibug]] ([[User talk:Minibug|talk]]) 01:30, 8 January 2024 (UTC) | |||
== Adding Terapagos (game) == | |||
The NPC appearances section is getting a bit long. Can we convert it to a (game) article, as seen with Koraidon, Miraidon, Ogerpon, and Pecharunt? [[User:CyberDragonM|CyberDragonM]] ([[User talk:CyberDragonM|talk]]) 12:55, 25 January 2024 (UTC) | |||
== Is Normal Form Terapagos the only Pokémon with programmed stats that cannot be fought or used legitimately? == | |||
Something I think should be added to the Trivia section - While Normal Form Terapagos has its own stat spread different from its other two forms, the form and as such those stats can never actually participate in battle (due to Tera Shift transforming it immediately and not being suppressible) without hacking the game to change its ability. There are obviously other Pokémon with forms that can't be used in battle, like Eternamax Eternatus or Neutral Xerneas; but the former can be '''battled''' in that form with those stats in its boss fight, while the latter doesn't have programmed stats different from Active Xerneas'. So is this a quality unique to Normal Form Terapagos, or is there another example(s) of this that I'm forgetting?--[[User:Necrozman|Necrozman]] ([[User talk:Necrozman|talk]]) 17:55, 21 March 2024 (UTC) | |||
Unfortunatley not, because Eternal Flower Floette has programmed stats. [[User:BorealRookidee|BorealRookidee]] ([[User talk:BorealRookidee|talk]]) 20:56, 21 March 2024 (UTC) | |||

There’s an old Japanese tale called Urashima Taro. | |||
The story goes that one day a fisherman named Urashimo Taro saved a rainbow shell turtle from some mean kids. As thanks the turtle takes him to the underwater palace of the dragon king (blueberry academy). He stays there for a few years but then gets homesick. Before he leaves they give him a box and tell him not to open it. When he arrives back home he discovers that what was a few years to him has been a hundred years on land. And all of the people he knew are dead. In despair he opens the box and he immediately ages into an old man. | |||
That last part is reflective of how Terapagos starts as a small child turtle and turns into a larger white bearded turtle when it enters battle. | |||
Side note: this tale is often used in the same way English speakers use Rip Van Winkle [[User:Dragoncat|Dragoncat]] ([[User talk:Dragoncat|talk]]) 00:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC) | |||
