>>54585825The way I see it Terapagos fulfills wishes, but Dokutaro amplifies desires.
Not the same thing.
Terapagos sees a frustrated scientist hoping to find strange Pokemon that were completely made up by a fraud, and fulfills their wish to have more help (AI Professor) and for their “Time Machine” to work.
Terapagos sees a young boy’s wishes for his loyal Pokemon to be saved from its fatal injuries, so it makes the magic herbs from the book the boy is using real.
The Tera crystals and shards are a reflection of Terapagos’s power and allow Pokémon to at least temporarily be whatever type they or their Trainer wish for. Obviously most prevalent with the gym leaders, others in story mode don’t do that mostly to keep the game difficulty low.
Dokutaro sees easily exploitable weakling Pokemon who want to get stronger so they can bully others and get whatever they want, so he amplifies the power of the Lousy Three.
Dokutaro sees a sheltered, weak, emotionally stressed boy desire to be more like the evil ogre in a story and takes advantage of him, causing chaos by reviving the Lousy Three (I mean, anyone who’s dead would probably desire to live again) and still manipulating him by making him obsessed with Ogerpon even after witnessing the ordeal it went through at the hands of the Three for a second time, and then amplifying his desire to be stronger to get revenge.
I’m hoping it gets implied that Dokutaro got to the Professor which is why they went crazy and neglected their family.
