Tera Type: Stellar
Calm Nature
- Tera Starstorm
- Rapid Spin

- Ice Beam / Earth Power
Terapagos is a stellar utility Pokemon in Ubers thanks to its well-rounded stats, a neutral typing, and the defensive potency of Tera Shell. The limited distribution of entry hazard removers makes Terapagos's Rapid Spin a welcome addition to teams and an annoyance to setters like Deoxys-S and Ribombee. Arceus formes, especially ones like Arceus-Fairy and Arceus-Ground, thrive with hazards off the field, and Heavy-Duty Boots users like Necrozma-DM and Calyrex-I can use alternative items thanks to Terapagos. Offensive threats like Koraidon and Zacian-C greatly appreciate support against Sticky Web, while Sticky Web and hazard-stack teams themselves enjoy Terapagos as a spinner. Roar prevents sweepers like Calm Mind Arceus-Fairy from using Terapagos as setup fodder. Ice Beam enables Terapagos to hit back against hazard setters like Landorus-T and Gliscor, and it's a strong coverage move against Giratina-O. Alternatively, Earth Power covers Zacian-C, Glimmora, and Necrozma-DM. Terapagos greatly appreciates teammates like Kingambit that threaten spinblockers like Lunala and Giratina-O.
