The '''Wyrtoise''' (originally '''King Tortragon'''; '''TortoLord''' in the GBC translations) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', it is typically a stronger, orange-red variant of the [[wyrtle]].
 
The '''Wyrtoise''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, introduced in {{Dragon Quest III}}.
 
It is a stronger, orange-red variant of the [[Wyrtle]] whose Japanese name implies a position of leadership amongst the terrapins.
 
==Characteristics==
Wyrtoises are quadrupedal {{Dragon}}s whose bodies are covered by a protective olive green shell like that of their namesake. They have long necks and tails like dragons, as well as a tall pair of horns on their heads, fins on either side of their faces, sharp fangs, and grey scales running down their backs to the ends of their tails. Their shells and scales offer them a high degree of protection from both physical and magical attacks, and they are capable of further bolstering their defences with the help of both '''[[Kabuff]]''' and '''[[Bounce]]'''. The Wyrtoise can breathe out blistering hot flames and, in later games, shock enemies with lightning bolts and spin in their shells to release flames.

==Etymology==
==Etymology==
* The English name "Wyrntoise" is the combination of "[[wikipedia:wyrm|wyrm]]" and "tortoise".
*The English name "Wyrtoise" is the combination of "[[wikipedia:wyrm|wyrm]]" and "tortoise".
* The Japanese name "ガメゴン ''Gamegon'' " is the combination of "かめ ''Kame'' "(turtle) and "ドラゴン ''Doragon'' "(Dragon). Then add the suffix "ロード ''roudo''" (Lord) to separate from [[Wyrtle]].  
*The Japanese name "ガメゴンロード ''Gamegon Rudo'' " is the combination of "かめ ''Kame'' "(turtle) and "ドラゴン ''Doragon'' "(Dragon), adding the suffix "ロード ''roudo''" (Lord) to separate from it from the lesser Wyrtles.
 
==Trivia==
*Though possibly coincidental, the Wyrtoise and its pallet-swaps bear a striking resemblance to the extinct horned turtle [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiolania Meiolania], which lived approximately in Australia during the Holocene period.
*The {{MFamilies}}'s Flame Rotation attack, as well as its card artwork for {{Rivals}}, is a homage to the daikaiju [https://wikizilla.org/wiki/Gamera Gamera], who is able to fly like a UFO by retracting into his shell and expelling propulsion flames from his limb openings. This homage is also made by the [[Tortoceratops]] in the ''Battle Road'' games.
