History[edit]
"Apparently Cyclizar has been allowing people to ride on its back since ancient times. Depictions of this have been found in 10,000-year-old murals." -Scarlet Dex
Found throughout Paldea, Cyclizar have made popular mounts for fast transit across the region since antiquity. Purportedly, they tend to be mild-mannered and friendly.
"It can sprint at over 70 mph while carrying a human. The rider’s body heat warms Cyclizar’s back and lifts the Pokémon’s spirit." -Violet Dex
It does appear that Cyclizar is possibly a domesticated form of other pokemon, although wild populations of Cyclizar have been observed to exist.

Racial Feats[edit]
Regenerator[edit]
Some Cyclizar display extremely powerful recuperative abilities between battles. Even if such abilities have limits, they're prized for their 'hidden' rarity.
When combat concludes, if you used your 'Shed Tail' ability, you recover 20hp. Additionally, you regain use of your 'Shed Tail' ability on a Short Rest as well as a Long Rest.
Terastallization[edit]
A phenomenon unique to Paldea, Tera Crystals have been the subject of immense amounts of research. Even if their true potential hasn't been unlocked by even the most brilliant researchers, any pokémon that accumulates enough of their power can terastallize.
When you select this feat, choose one damage type from Fire, Lightning, Poison, Acid, Cold, Force, Thunder, Psychic, Necrotic and Radiant. Additionally, work with your DM to determine a second type from this list.
As a bonus action, you can Terastallize for 1 minute or until you fall unconscious. While in this state, you have Resistance to your chosen damage type, and once per turn when you would deal damage of this type, you can deal an additional 2d6 damage. However, you also become Vulnerable to the second damage type agreed with your DM while in this state.
Once you have used this ability, you cannot do so again until you complete a Short or Long Rest.
