Excelo Region Legend Excerpt: The World Tree.

"The planet was young when one of the first civilizations formed on a barren landscape. It was crafted with a communal city surrounded by a massive stone wall... and a massive tree, a gift from the gods. Its leaves glowed an unearthly glow, producing fruits as bright as the stars. This tree granted the people there immortality, a concept that kept the city a prosperous utopia. A true Garden of Eden. However, this everlasting life was not without law and order. The gods gave the townsfolk one rule for their gift: "Thou shalt not take thy golden fruits."

"For many centuries, this oath was respected by all, but as time went on, the townsfolk began to get restless. Rumors started about the tree's supposed magical fruits. Did they possess knowledge? Power? The people did not know, though now curiosity ran rampant. A single human scaled the tree to harvest a single fruit. "Just one... just one." The human took the bite...

"A loud tremor shook the city to its core. Trees swayed, buildings shuddered. Then... silence. The human looked about in confusion. "What had happened?"

"From the earth burst forth an omen of the gods, the goliath legend present at the world's creation, the World Serpent. With eyes of rage the beast looked forth at the human who broke the sacred rule. A loud, fiery bellow emerged from its throat. The sky turned black, lightning flickered on and off. Citizens of the first civilization fled in panic as the World Serpent forced the city to fall to ruin..."

"Time passed, the people of the first civilization were no more. Immortality was stripped from humanity with this act, with none to recall it. The tree who bore the fruits of eternity was erased from this world, naught a seed nor root left where it formerly stood. The city, decimated, was eventually forgotten, built over, and succeeded by new settlers. As for the World Serpent, it returned to the center of our world to rest... guarding a secured gift from the surface."

Origin of Name: Deity+Tree+Eden= Deitreden
Based on: Yggdrasil, the World Tree of Norse Mythology. Also based on the tree from the Garden of Eden.

=============================

EDIT(12/27/17): New design/artwork! Classification changed from Forbidden Pokemon to Eden Tree Pokemon! Excerpt revised! Arbor Vitae effect changed!

Hoo boy, now compared to Corodin, Deitreden didn't really age as well. Time for that TLC!

First we sprout some glowing leaves, and spread your roots! Fix that posture! And voila! Deitreden looks better than before!

I went back and revised Deitreden's story as well since it felt too cluttered compared to the other Excelo Excerpts I've written. Think this gets the point across much more easily.

Lastly, Arbor Vitae's a cool sounding signature ability, but the effect always felt out of place compared to Corodin's Terra Firma (also pointed out by a recent commenter!). As such, the ability's been revised, acting as a passive Leftovers for Deitreden. Think that fits better as well since Arbor Vitae translates to "Life Tree", meaning Deitreden's keeping itself alive with its effect!

And two down! Only three more silhouettes to go!

EDIT(09/29/15): Added BST provided by !
EDIT(03/09/13): New display template and number! New ability and signature move names! Shiny coloration added!

Another legend returns, Deitreden! I may reread the story I wrote up there later and adjust it as I'm not too happy with how it sounds. Anyways, Deitreden got some notable major body changes since its last appearance, but otherwise is somewhat the same. The golden outlines represent the tree sap flowing though its body, as with the white orbs being the forbidden fruits. Also added to the changes is an "eye" on the visor of Deitreden.

A polar opposite in terms of raw power than Corodin, but regardless still a tank. Not even a tank, an entire fortress thanks to its ability! If it were to battle against a Fire-type however, it's ability would become null and void. But that doesn't stop it from walling the crap outta everything. Along with its powerful (yet hard to pull off) signature move, Deitreden learns a flotilla of moves pertaining to its type. Namely, Synthesis, Solar Beam, Wood Hammer, Metal Burst, and Iron Defense. As with Corodin, it also learns other moves such as Hammer Arm.
