History
Zyuohger
Childhood

Tusk stands before the Link Cube with his father.
Tusk's father was a guardian of the Link Cube before him, and the young Tusk would stand alongside him in keeping watch over the Link Cube. TV STORY-Ep. 2: Don’t Underestimate this Planet

Tusk's father reads him a story about an elephant in a Zyuland forest.
As a child, Tusk grew a love for reading books thanks to his father, who would read stories to the young Tusk. TV STORY-Ep. 12: The Short-Nose Elephant
Guarding the Link Cube
Along with Sela, Leo, and Amu, Tusk was assigned as a guardian to the Link Cube, which had been left dormant following the taking of one of the six King's Credentials. As such, Tusk was entrusted with one of the King's Credentials. TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Exciting Animal Land
Tusk grew frustrated with Leo and Amu, who he found to be complacent in their task of guarding the Link Cube, taking issue with Leo's habit of staying up late which would result in him being tired while on duty, and Amu's practice of decorating her guardian's spear with ribbons to make it look cute, leading him to harshly scold them both. Tusk was consoled by Sela, who suggested that while he may be right, there may a better way of getting his point across. Tusk understood Sela's sentiment, but would find executing it easier said than done. TV STORY-Ep. 21: Prison Break
Chou Super Hero Taisen
Catching up with Amu, Tusk and the others fought against the army of Shocker from the Game World
alongside various fellow Sentai Rangers and Kamen Riders.

Zyuhger Returns
Tusk was in the library when he received his invitation to the Monarch of the World Tournament, having committed to finishing every book in there before doing any other activities. He chooses to chaperone Peruru to the tournament along with Amu but not to participate. While Leo and Sela are recovering, Tusk learns from Yamato about the underground casino and the true identity of Pocane da Niro as a Deathgalien. He joins Yamato and Amu in an undercover sting at the casino, using his wits to win many rounds of Mahjong in an effort to empty the casino of all money.

Personality
Tusk is an elephant Zyuman and the most intelligent of the four Zyumans that traveled to the Human World. Though he seems like the insensitive, unapproachable-type, he's actually extremely kind. In addition, he has a sharp sense of smell. When something interests him, Tusk would openly show his interest in them. He also likes to learn anything he didn't know or see before like human knowledge, Zyuoh The Light, Ninjutsu and magic.
Powers and Abilities

Tusk uses his nose to trace Leo's scent via his sock, much to his discomfort.

Tusk uses his snout to catch the shutdown switch for Ginis' dome.
- Zyuman Power (ジューマンパワー Jūman Pawā): The natural energy of individual Zyumen, they can bestow this energy upon other lifeforms to heal them via a King's Credential, granting the potential to unlock Zyuman powers as a side-effect in humans. However, this would come at the cost of the Zyuman's life force, thus shortening their lifespan. The process is also evidently irreversible.
- Disguise: After being stranded in the human world, Tusk is granted his own human form by his King's Credential which protects his identity as Zyuman. Following this, Tusk can change from Zyuman to human and back at will. However, his disguise bears one exposing flaw in that he retains his elephant tail.
- Sixth Sense: As a Zyuman guardian, Tusk can sense malicious presences such as the Deathgalien which are signaled by his tail standing erect.
- Hyperosmia: As an elephant Zyuman, Tusk possesses an intensely strong sense of smell which he can use to track others. He retains his sense in his human form. However, this means he is easily overwhelmed by items with a strong odor, such as nattō (the stench of which is enough to temporarily cancel his human disguise).
- Prehensile Snout: In his Zyuman form, Tusk can use his trunk as a grasping tool. The trunk can also stretch beyond its usual length to grab items that would normally be out of reach.
- Earth's Energy: As a defender of all living organisms on Earth, Tusk was bestowed with the Earth's Energy, which not only restored his damaged Zyuoh Changer, but also granted him superpowers, like:
- Superhuman Strength: Even in their civilian form, the Zyuohgers together were able to punch back Shin Ginis.

Instinct Awakened Mode
In his Instinct Awakened (野性解放 Yasei Kaihō) form, Zyuoh Elephant's boots transform into elephant hooves that can create earthquakes by stomping the ground or shockwaves that send stone debris flying at the enemy.
