Tyrantrum (Japanese: ガチゴラス, Hepburn: Gachigorasu) (tie-RAN-trum) is a Rock/Dragon-type Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation VI. It is Aurorus' counterpart.

Biology

Physiology

Tyrantrum is a massive bipedal dinosaur-like Pokémon that resembles a Tyrannosaurus Rex. It has craggy auburn rock-like scales covering most of its body, while its underbelly is gray and white. It has a large spiny white fringe around its neck. It has small arms with two sharp black claws, and powerfully-built legs. Its feet are very large with three sharp black claws on each. It has many sharp white teeth on its lower jaw, and craggy red fangs on its upper jaw. Tyrantrum has an orange spiked crest on its forehead, and small white eyes. It has a thick, powerful tail with orange spiked formations at the tip.

Its overall appearance appears to be patterned after an old king with a white beard, wearing a golden crown and red robe open in the front with a high collar in the back.

Behavior

Tyrantrum has immense jaw strength, allowing it to easily tear apart both a large metal sheet and a car. During the time it roamed the Earth, Tyrantrum was considered to be unbeatable.

Many scientists theorized that Tyrantrum may have feathers growing out of its body.

Tyrantrum lived 100 million years ago. Its vicious, but regal and magnificent, poise signified a kingly presence.

As the top of the food chain, Tyrantrum had little to worry about other than finding food and were believed to essentially rule ancient jungles like kings—they ate anything and travelled anywhere they wanted to.

Tyrantrum, however, often ended up being controlled by a certain other species of Pokémon—their own offspring Tyrunt. Greatly protective of their young, Tyrantrum would go to great lengths in order to please their incredibly picky children.

Evolution

Tyrantrum evolves from Tyrunt at Level 39 during the day.

Trivia

• Tyrantrum and its pre-evolution, Tyrunt, are currently the only Rock/Dragon type Pokémon.
• Aegislash and Tyrantrum are both Pokémon designed by Hitoshi Ariga.
• Tyrantrum is the heaviest Fossil Pokémon.
• Its Generation VII Pokédex entry mentions that it is originally thought to have feathers. This reflects how it is now commonly theorized that Tyrannosaurus rex had feathers, since a relative, Yutyrannus, was found with evidence of feathers.

Origin

Tyrantrum is based on a Tyrannosaurus rex. Its appearance and behavior are a pun on Tyrannosaurus rex's name, which means "tyrant lizard king". It also resembles a king with its crest resembling a crown, its neck feathers resembling a cape, and its lower jaw resembling a beard.

Name origin

Tyrantrum comes from “tyrannosaurus” and “tantrum”. It's king motif may also make the name include “tyrant”.
