?

Taxonomy
An Akura Vashimu that has further developed its paralyzing crystals, Zenith Akura Vashimu is the rarely seen Zenith Species.

Habitat Range
Zenith Akura Vashimu have been sighted in the Desert, Swamp, and White Lake.

Ecological Niche
Akura Vashimu are large and powerful enough to be top predators in the Desert. Armed with powerful grasping claws and a mace-like crystal tail, Akura Vashimu can easily kill their prey in one strike whether it be an Apceros, Remobra, Aptonoth, or even Gendrome. An Akura Vashimu's only known predator is Odibatorasu. Odibatorasu have been seen killing and devouring fully grown Akura Vashimu with ease.

Biological Adaptions
Zenith Akura Vashimu have many of the same adaptions as Akura Vashimu, however, there is a few differences between them. Due to surviving for many years, Zenith Akura Vashimu's crystals have become heavier, sharper, and harder from its crystal liquid further developing overtime, especially on its tail. Zenith Akura Vashimu's tail has grown in a strange shape. This tail is quite heavy yet has flexible movements. A single slam from this tail can cause tremors around Zenith Akura Vashimu and crystallize everything that touches it. Both of this Akura Vashimu's pincers have developed differently from one another. One pincer has developed to rip apart prey, while the other is used to hold prey.

Behavior
Zenith Akura Vashimu has become more persistent in hunting down prey. Once it has a prey item in its pincers, Zenith Akura Vashimu is known to constantly stab the prey item with one of them until the creature dies.
