In both its Normal and Terastal Forms, Terapagos is shown to be a docile and friendly Pokémon. Once it awakened after hundreds of slumbering in the depths of the [[Pokémon world|planet]], it yawned and looked happy to see the group of humans looking down at it. Terapagos is heavily implied to be the very last one of its species after seismic shifts brought its kind to the brink of extinction. It's also implied to be a very young-minded Pokémon as shown when it gladly walked towards the player upon seeing them for the very first time.

It also appear to enjoy granting desires to others, as seen when it brought a [[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} from a [[Pokémon multiverse|parallel timeline]] for its trainer. Even though it is a good Pokémon by nature, when [[Kieran]] [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallized]] it as instructed by [[Briar]], Terapagos is abnormally overloaded with [[Terastal energy]], causing it to lose control of itself and become enraged, so furious that it not only destroyed the [[Master Ball]] used to catch it, but also tried to kill everyone there, specially Kieran with a huge Terastal energy blast.

Over 2,000,000 years ago, Terapagos inhabited the [[Paldea]] [[region]] in a bygone era along with other Terapagos, however, according to one of its [[Pokédex]] entires, seismic shifts started to occur on the earth, which was said to have doomed its species to the brink of extinction. It was thought that this species went extinct, having been caught up in these seismic shifts; however, it seems that one Terapagos protected itself by changing the energy in its body into hard crystals and going into hibernation deep underground. Terapagos laid dormant in deep caverns in Area Zero, currently known as Area Zero Underdepths.

Terapagos laid dormant in deep caverns in Area Zero, currently known as Area Zero Underdepths.


As thousands of years passed, as Terapagos slumbered, it unintentionally caused [[Tera Shard|crystals]] to start growing all across the [[Area Zero Underdepths]] and [[Area Zero]] itself. Thanks to these crystals, Terapagos gave origin to a phenomenon that would later be named [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallization]], a phenomenon that crystallizes Pokémon and can even change their [[Type]]s. Furthermore, along with said phenomenon, a new type was also created from the mix of all Tera types, which would be later named {{t|Stellar}} type. It is also heavily implied that these crystals gave birth some rare crystal Pokémon, such as {{p|Carbink}}, {{p|Glimmet}} and {{p|Glimmora}}. Terapagos's power even caused [[Paradox Pokémon|Pokémon]] from [[Multiverse|parallel timelines]] to be temporarily brought into Area Zero.

200 years ago, during an expedition in [[Area Zero]], after the group was attacked by one of the Pokémon brought by Terapagos, a Great Tusk{{sup/9|S}}/Iron Treads{{sup/9|V}}, one of the members however, a man named [[Heath]], somehow found himself in Area Zero Underdepths and encountered Terapagos while in its Stellar Form. Fascinated by the sight, Heath included Terapagos in his [[Scarlet Book]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Violet Book]]{{sup/9|V}}, dubbing its page, "'''A Disk Pokémon?'''". Although he was unsure if it was a Pokémon or even alive at all, he named it Terapagos and suspected it is the origin of the Terastallization, which turns out to be true. When the team returned to the surface, most people who read the Scarlet Book{{sup/9|S}}/Violet Book{{sup/9|V}} believed everything in it was fake, which included Terapagos itself.

After the four return to the Blueberry Academy, Briar apologizes for putting them in danger and reveals that she wrote [[Briar's Book|a book]] about their expedition, finally confirming Terapagos's existence to the people of Paldea. If the player travels to [[Kitakami]]'s [[Crystal Pool]] with Terapagos in their team and Briar's Book in their bag, it will use its powers to temporarily bring a Sada{{sup/9|S}}/Turo{{sup/9|V}} from another timeline to this one. After a brief conversation, the player will trade their copy of Briar's Book for the Professor's copy of the Scarlet Book{{sup/9|S}}/Violet Book{{sup/9|V}}, before the professor returns to their own timeline.
