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 [[move]]s, 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.

Terapagos has taken this form at least three times throughout history: in ancient times, during the Area Zero expedition (200 years ago), and in the present time. Its Terastal energy becomes so abnormally amplified that it actually appears to lose control and lash out due to its energy output. Due to having so much power, Stellar Form Terapagos also risks wreaking havoc to [[Paldea]]'s ecosystem. While in this form, it was shown to resist going back into even the most powerful of [[Poké Ball]]s, the [[Master Ball]], destroying it in the process.

Stellar Form Terapagos is capable of absorbing Terastal energy from other Terastallized Pokémon, causing their Terastallized state to be undone earlier than intended. With it, it can create multiple Tera Shields and even change its type amidst battle, though this seems to be limited to only three times per battle. The hidden power within Stellar Form Terapagos is capable of {{a|Teraform Zero|reducing to zero all effects of weather and terrain}}. It has shown to be capable of shooting huge beams of pure Terastal energy at its foes. When using specific beam-like [[move]]s, Stellar Form Terapagos will use all of its hexagonal gems in a certain formation to shoot the beam from it. In this form, it is also known as "'''the hidden treasure of Area Zero'''" due to its status as the secret treasure that was sought by the Paldean empire.
