Phugu/Legacy

== Description ==
== Appearance ==
The is a platypus-like creature, standing on two legs, and has arms with large, wide hands and long claws. The face is made up of a platypus-like bill and large eyes. Hanging from most of its torso are fur-like patches of vegetation, with small flowers which also adorn its back, head, tail, shoulders, and knees. It consists of yellow, orange, green, white, and black. Upon its back and wrapped around its body are small buttercup-like glowing flowers. Its appearance is almost plastic like, as if it was a decoration in a garden.
=== Males ===
Males have small whisker-like extensions on their chin.
=== Females ===
Females have no additional features.

=== Pros ===
The is a semi-aquatic omnivore, meaning it can easily find food and shelter in all biomes, compensating for its average appetite and thirst stat and long growth time. Being capable of eating on-the-run gives it multiple advantages, eliminating the risk of remaining stuck in-animation while eating, and providing the ability to regain hunger while fighting and/or fleeing. Having ambush stat also provides it a decent boost against non-ambushers.
's HP and weight are quite decently high, specially for its tier, allowing it to tesist a few blows once fully grown. Combine that with its decent damage output, average HP regeneration and harden and it will be a tough opponent for most creatures of its tier and lower and some higher-tier creatures which happen to have lower weight than the . Its unbreakability additionally helps into protecting itself from bleed (in a better way that its already high bleed defense can) and several speed-debuff status like bone break and ligament tear at all stages of life, thus increasing its survival chances
Its nightvision is good enough to detect creatures with night stalker without the huge debuff creatures with better nightvision suffer.
=== Cons ===
's average stamina, combined with its low stamina regeneration, makes it easy to tire and slow to recover, specially underwater where this type of semi-aquatic will have some of its stamina periodically drained, leaving it at a disadvantage against full aquatics and several creatures with abilities that partially compensate for the drain like Streamlined. Its turn speed is also quite slow so many smaller creatures can easily outmaneuver it and both prevent getting hit at vulnerable spots, especially outside water.
Its damage output is still low enough that high-defensive status effect creatures like Eulopii can still deliver their status, becoming dangerous to bite. Harden is only really useful against creatures with a comparable weight difference (of 2.5:1 at most) due to the max/min cap damage, so against most heavier creatures with lower speed or against far lighter creatures, and since unbreakable already includes a better bleed defense, its boosts are eclipsed by their speed debuffs.
Its growth time is also considerably longer than most creatures of its tier, leaving juvenile relatively defenceless for a far longer time than its tiermates.
Additionally, due to its leaf-green blood, some people may target this creature just to see it bleed and drop a weird-colored carcass.

== Trivia ==
* Concept by JaxonBirb and Stood_04.
** The is inspired by a platypus, a duck, and a potted plant.
* Second confirmed and released creature of the Easter Event of 2021.
* 's plant-like features turn different colors according to each season, similar to how Lmakosauruodon's tree changes colors.
* Originally called “Platduck”.
* It is the first semi-aquatic event creature.
* The has green blood.
** Due to this, when killed, the drops a green carcass.
** This is an actual color in some Earth creatures: both from those that use chlorocruorin, a green oxygen carrier that replaces hemoglobin in some invertebrates blood; and in some vertebrates (like some green tree skinks) that have adapted to carry lethal amounts of biliverdin in their blood, which is a toxic byproduct of heme catabolism whose only good side is that it has anti-mutagenic properties. Its possibly green just because of the inspiration of this creature, meaning the blood could be sap or moss mixed with gravel, which is more fitting for the .
* It has the same calls (lower pitched calls) and swimming animation from Traiboros.
* Players can select the colors from the leaves or the back with the color-select tool to paint your creature with colors outside its normal palette. However, they'll only display in the main and paint menu, and not in-game. Unintended color selections will revert to default colors after clicking "Play".
