Great Tusk is a large gray {{wp|Proboscidea|proboscidean}} Pokémon. Its trunk, topside, and tail are covered in dark purple plates, with three rows of pinkish-red spikes on top. Similar pinkish-red accents form around its slanted yellow eyes, as well as on its body as spots. It also has tufts of pinkish-red fur around its legs. Its face has a jagged mouth and two large tusks that curl inward. Its dark purple ears are long, thin, and serrated, with red on the inside. | Great Tusk is a large gray {{wp|Proboscidea|proboscidean}} Pokémon.

At some point, a Great Tusk escaped [[Area Zero]] and consumed some [[Herba Mystica]], which caused it to become the Quaking Earth Titan, one of the [[Titan Pokémon]] found in the [[Paldea]] region. | At some point, a Great Tusk escaped [[Area Zero]] and consumed some [[Herba Mystica]], which caused it to become the Quaking Earth Titan, one of the [[Titan Pokémon]] found in the [[Paldea]] region. |
