Protector (InstanceClass, 23)

From Compile Worlds

A Protector (テクター Tekutaa) is essentially the Puyo Wars equivalent of a Pokémon. It is a battle mech in which a Puyo or, in Daichi's case, a small human rides in.

Trivia

• For 5 months, the meaning of the katakana テクター was not known, so they were called tectars as an attempt at anglifying it. The katakana doesn't seem to get any useful results on Google or Wikipedia. The term "Tectar" can still be shorthand for "Protector" however.
• The term "Protector" is capitalized to avoid confusing it with the regular English meaning of the word.
