I've always been partial to frogs and toads, so I have to say that I like Tetsucabra, and its Subspecies is fairly decent as well, though it could be better.

Design-wise, the dark green body provides a nice contrast with the firey orange its face becomes when it breaks the explosive boulders, and the Great Sword looks absolutely awesome with that firey design. Sure wish its other weapons looked that good.

In terms of the battle, all it has going for it is the increased range caused by the explosions; other than that, it's just like the regular Tetsucabra. The explosive rocks are a nice touch, but I believe that they would be better if they inflicted Fire damage or Blastblight; otherwise the explosions just seem fake.

And speaking of Subspecies, I once had an idea for a black and green Tetsucabra variant that uses black magic to hex its enemies and raise the dead (quite fitting if you ask me, since frogs and toads are associated with witchcraft after all). I like to refer to it as either the Abra Tetsucabra and the Sabbatic Tetsucabra.
