Recent rumors suggest that Tera forms, which bring about significant transformations in both the appearance and capabilities of specific Pokemon, might be introduced in the upcoming DLC for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, titled The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero.
Concept art for Tera forms of Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise has been shared by Reddit user Colmlukas. These designs speculate on how the Pokemon might appear in the upcoming games, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, taking into account their established connection with the franchise.
An artistic Pokemon enthusiast has recently designed fascinating Tera forms for the original Red and Blue Starter evolutions. Following the trend in previous mainline entries, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet showcase a fresh battle feature known as Terastallization. This unique gimmick grants Pokemon a magnificent crystal-like form and alters their offensive elemental powers. While Terastallization has typically resulted in minor modifications in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, rumors suggest that the upcoming DLC, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, may bring significant changes. According to leaks, this DLC will introduce new Tera forms that resemble the popular Mega Evolutions from Pokemon X and Y. Unlike previous iterations, which merely added a new hat and crystal-like coating, these revamped Tera evolutions will reportedly transform the Pokemon's appearance and enhance their abilities to a considerable extent.
The new Tera forms in Scarlet and Violet's upcoming DLC have sparked numerous theories among fans regarding which Pokémon will receive these forms. Reddit user Colmlukas has taken the initiative to explore this topic, starting with the original Starter trio from Pokémon Red and Blue. Alongside fan concept art, they have shared their ideas for Tera forms of Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise.
In these alternate forms, Venusaur replaces its leafy flower on its back with a massive mushroom, Charizard forgoes its wings in favor of flames cascading down its back and shoulders, and Blastoise exchanges its water cannons for a jellyfish-like shell pattern.
Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise have been iconic Pokémon since their introduction in the franchise's early days. They gained Mega Evolutions in Pokémon X and Y and Gigantamax forms in Pokémon Sword and Shield, further solidifying their popularity over the years.
If Pokemon Scarlet and Violet does include new Tera forms in its upcoming DLC, it would be logical for Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise to receive them due to their longstanding history and the tendency for them to gain new forms. Limited information is available regarding these potential Tera evolutions, and their inclusion is not confirmed. Nevertheless, Colmlukas's fan art offers a compelling visualization of what these new Tera forms for Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise could look like if they were introduced in the post-release content of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
