The semi-aquatic hatchling of an Exeggutops. The underside of its eggshell carapace and claws are coated in a yolk-like antimicrobial gel that protects it from dehydration and many water-borne illnesses.
Exeggtops is the neotenic or axolotl-like state of the Exeggutops line. Having stunted its development by choice or through a nutrient-poor environment, it has grown a stronger shell and developed keen eyesight to hunt in the dark sea.
A sprouting seedling or hatchling that has moved ashore to mature after finding sufficient nutrients and sunlight. From this point onward in its development, it can perform a vegetative reproduction by detaching its smaller 'propagule' Exegguto.
Frequently found stalking beaches, Exeggutops is capable of vegetative cloning through the Exegguto it relies on for sight. If no Exegguto are left to allow it to see and hunt, it buries its lower body to photosynthesize until one regrows.
