>"Director Yajima:
I want to know the reason why the Turtle can only be found in Atlantis (codename for Area Zero). Why is it only there?
>Matsushima (scenario writer at GF):
Kodaikame (Terapagos) itself was a Pokémon that lived on Table Mountain before Atlantis was created by its sinking/collapse. It was an ordinary Pokémon that could be found in other regions with similar environments. The idea was that it became rare because of the collapse that created Atlantis."
Table Mountain was on Faraway Island, and was an anime exclusive area where Goh encountered Mew and was shown the formation of the universe. I always thought that scene was a bit unnerving, but I'm wondering if the crystals that showed Goh the past will become relevant in HZ.
