New Information About Osutogaroa (Info Comes from Nintendo Dream)


 * When Osutogaroa was being created, there initial draft was a Zombie Dragon (Japanese ドラゴンゾンビ).
 * Like Kirin and Yama Tsukami, Osutogaroa was put into the Elder Dragon class because it doesn't exactly fit into any other ones.
 * Osutogaroa maybe a powerful predator, however, in the sea it has to worry about its own predator. This monster's only known predators are Ceadeus and Ceadeus pups. So Osutogaroa has to be careful when traveling to new hunting grounds for food.
 * To move quickly, Osutogaroa has jet propulsion like squids. It uses this to return to its Wyvern Graveyard at a quicker rate, so it can avoid getting eaten itself.
 * Osutogaroa's Name Origin: Oyster (Japanese 牡蠣) + Tangaroa (Japanese タンガロア)
 * Though Osutogaroa can destroy an ecosystem, it doesn't actually want to do that. It prefers to leave its nest in search of prey so, it still has plenty of food at the environment it is living within.
