Terastal Form Terapagos is a reptilian Pokémon that resembles an indigo {{wp|sea turtle}}. It now has two patches of voluminous, shiny fur: one near its head, vaguely forming a mane, and the other where its star-tipped tail used to be, vaguely forming three separate tails. The color of its fur varies between a greenish yellow and sky blue. Its hind legs have been fully covered by the fur, while only the toes of its front legs are visible, barely poking out of the mane. The eyes remain unchanged from the Normal Form's ones, but they are seen gleaming with the same hue as the fur. The diamond-shaped earrings and ponytail seem to have merged with Terapagos's head.

Terapagos's shell is composed of crystallized Terastal energy, with eighteen irregular pentagons on its surface, each decorated with symbols of varying shapes and colors in a way to resemble the eighteen [[type]]s. The symbols morph back and forth to abstract shapes. On the center of its shell is a cyan, hexagonal protrusion adorned with the Terastal symbol, much like the small body of Normal Form Terapagos. The sides of its shell also have three obtuse pentagons each on the rim of the shell that are a solid light blue color. [[Kieran]] assumes Terapagos's Terastal Form is its true form; this, however, is currently unproven.

Normal Form Terapagos enters its Terastal Form when it is either in danger or about to battle. Its shell {{a|Tera Shell|holds the power of every type}}, allowing it to temporarily distort type matchups and render all damage-dealing moves as ineffective.<ref>"[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/terapagos_terastal_form/ Terastal Form Terapagos]" Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website.</ref> The shell then absorbs the move's energy and transfers it back to Terapagos. When using specific beam-like attacks, Terapagos withdraws its hands and head into its shell, shapes its mane in a way it resembles its three tails, flies up, and shoots the beam from the gem in the center of its shell. In this form, it is known as "'''the indigo disk'''", due to its indigo coloration and disk-shaped shell.
