Description

You encounter either a random trainer or a scientist who has a “unique” Tera Orb. Unfortunately for them, they aren’t much of a trainer and would rather have EXP Charms to assist with their Pokemon.

Player does NOT need to have normal Tera Orb for this to spawn. However, they do need either 1 Super EXP Charm or 2 normal EXP Charms.

  • Player gains a golden/special Tera Orb. Terastallizing does not have a timer with this orb.

Explanation/Notes on Design

Players often complain about the timed mechanic of Terastallization, but I think there are concerns about opening the floodgates to balance issues by making a change to the Tera turn counts. This alleviates some of those balance issues by gating an “OP” version of the form changing behind a rarer event and putting a hefty price tag on it.

This seems like an ME you might code and not do its intended job for a long time, as Tera gets reworked — dunno if any dev is even on that though.

Otherwise it seems good.

Some questions:

• this then modifies future shards to be permanent?
• Does this give a shard itself?
