Titan Pokémon

Artwork of a Titan Pokémon

Titan Pokémon (Japanese: ヌシポケモン Leader Pokémon) are a type of variant Pokémon encountered in the "Path of Legends" storyline of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. They appear much larger than other Pokémon of their kind, and they guard the Herba Mystica, rare ingredients said to be able to restore health instantly when eaten.

History

200 years ago, the Area Zero exploration team, led by Heath, discovered the Herba Mystica hidden deep within Area Zero, in the Great Crater of Paldea, located in the center of the region. They recorded information on the herbs in the Scarlet Book^S/Violet Book^V and gave the Herba Mystica their proper name. They subsequently discovered that the Herba Mystica comes in five different flavor varieties with separate healing effects. Due to this discovery, the team attempted to grow the herbs outside of Area Zero, in different sites around Paldea, but before they were able to harvest them, the herbs were eaten by Pokémon, leading to the first appearances of Titan Pokémon. As a result, the project was abandoned.

At some point, a Paradox Pokémon called Great Tusk^S/Iron Treads^V somehow escaped Area Zero and consumed the Herba Mystica in order become the Quaking Earth Titan.

During the events of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, specifically the Path of Legends story, Arven and the player would face off against the six respective Titan Pokémon. After defeating each Titan, Arven collects the herbs and makes sandwiches in order to heal his wounded partner, Mabosstiff.

Background

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Titan Pokémon are ordinary Pokémon empowered and grown to gigantic proportions by the Herba Mystica they eat. There are a total of five Titan Pokémon fights to accomplish. Each Titan Pokémon is fought twice; the first fight is done alone, while the second fight is done together with Arven. After defeating a Titan Pokémon as part of the story, it can be encountered again in the same area it was fought as a normal-sized Pokémon (albeit one that is the largest possible size for their species), where it can be caught. These Pokémon will have the Titan Mark, which allows them to be given the title "the Former Titan"; they are also guaranteed to have an IV of 30 for all stats.

The Teal Mask

In The Teal Mask DLC, a similar battle state known as Titanic is achieved by the Loyal Three after being resurrected, implied to be caused by the villagers of Mossui Town feeding them Kitakami Mochi made with special herbs.

Challenges

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Details on locations and events surrounding these battles

Every Titan Pokémon is battled in multiple phases. First, the player will encounter one as larger-than-usual static encounters in the overworld and battle it. Once its HP is below 10%, it will retreat to its Herba Mystica location to recover and power up. Arven will then join the player to defeat the powered-up Titan Pokémon, which will be fully healed and have twice as much HP as normal in this phase. Once they are defeated, they can be re-battled and caught as Former Titans at the location they were originally encountered.

The Titan Pokémon are battled at the same level and using the same move set each time, including as Former Titans. Former Titans have fixed natures and will have 30 IVs in every stat.

The False Dragon Titan

The False Dragon Titan includes three battles, instead of two. Once the player finds Titan Tatsugiri, a Dondozo will suddenly appear and swallow the Tatsugiri, and a battle against Dondozo immediately begins. Once Dondozo's HP is low, it will retreat to its Herba Mystica location, where the player must battle it again, teaming up with Arven. Dondozo does not have stat boosts from Tatsugiri's Commander Ability in either of these battles. Once Dondozo is defeated, Titan Tatsugiri will reappear and battle; the player's party will be healed and their Tera Orb restored before this battle.

Because Dondozo is not the true Titan Pokémon, only Former Titan Tatsugiri can be re-battled and caught. Former Titan Tatsugiri always has a Quiet nature.

Trivia

• In all languages of the games except English and Chinese, the same terms are used to refer to both Titan Pokémon and Totem Pokémon.
  • The Japanese term for Titan Pokémon (Japanese: ヌシポケモン Leader Pokémon) is fully written in katakana, distinguishing it from Totem Pokémon (Japanese: ぬしポケモン Leader Pokémon), but the two terms are otherwise identical, being pronounced the same and having the same meaning.
• Every Titan Pokémon is a Pokémon introduced in Generation IX with a single-stage evolutionary line.
  • However, Great Tusk and Iron Treads are Paradox Pokémon resembling Donphan, a Pokémon with a two-stage evolutionary line.
• The Quaking Earth Titans are the only version-exclusive Titan Pokémon, and the only Titan Pokémon that are Paradox Pokémon.
  • They are also the only Titan Pokémon to be of unknown gender.
• The Stony Cliff Titan is the only Titan Pokémon whose type is not also the type specialty of a Paldea Elite Four member. However, Geeta does use a Glimmora with a Rock Tera Type as her final Pokémon.
