Artwork

Tidalpole evolves from Tabbypole in its teenage years. At this point the dust patches on its back begin to solidify, creating earthy armor plates. In contrast to Tabbypole, Tidalpole’s tail is flat and articulate, allowing it to be used as a weapon. This tail also allows the creature to manipulate nearby bodies of water.
