* This is the [[cover card]] of ''[[Structure Deck: Roar of the Sea Emperor]]''/''[[Realm of the Sea Emperor Structure Deck]].''
+
* This card's name is a portmanteau of "[[wikipedia:Poseidon|Poseidon]]", the Greek god of the sea, and a dragon/hydra.
 +
** Even the tip of its tail has the image of Poseidon's [[wikipedia:Trident|Trident]].
  
* This monster appears in the artworks of "[[Call of the Atlanteans]]", "[[High Tide on Fire Island]]", "[[Phantasm Spiral Assault]]", and "[[Phantasm Spiral Crash]]".
+
* This monster's appearance resembles "[[The Dragon Dwelling in the Deep]]". Also they are both [[WATER]] and [[Sea Serpent]]-Type monsters despite both having [[Dragon]] in their name.
** This monster's neck bracelet of this monster appears in the artwork of "[[Abyss-squall]]" and as an armband in the artwork of "[[Mermail Abyssgaios]]".
 
*** According to ''[[Master Guide 4 card storylines|Master Guide 4]]'', this monster transforms into "Abyssgaios" with the magic of the armband.
 
*** This is supported by how both the bottom of "Abyssgaio's" body resembles this monster, both of whom share the same [[Attribute]] ([[WATER]]), [[original ATK and DEF]] (2800/1600), and number of "stars" (7).
 
  
* The tower appearing in the artwork of "[[A Legendary Ocean]]" appears in this card's artwork, albeit slightly visible in the upper left corner.
+
* This monster resembles the [[w:c:monsterhunter:Lagiacrus|Lagiacrus]], from [[wikipedia:Monster Hunter|Monster Hunter]].
** Fittingly, the above-mentioned card's Japanese name is "Atlantis, the Legendary City", which likely serves as the home of the "[[Atlantean]]" monsters.
 
  
* This card is named after [[wikipedia:Poseidon|Poseidon]], the Greek god of the sea who is often depicted wielding his signature weapon, the [[wikipedia:Trident|trident]].
+
** This card's position and color scheme is also very similar to [[w:c:monsterhunter:Lagiacrus|Lagiacrus]].  
** Fittingly, this monster's three-pronged tail resembles the image of Poseidon's trident, a three-pronged spear used for spear fishing or as a polearm.
 
  
* This monster has a younger counterpart: "[[Legendary Atlantean Tridon]]".
+
* This card's effect seems be a mix between "[[Masked HERO Acid]]" and "[[Giant Trunade]]". "Giant Trunade" returns all Spell and Trap Cards on both sides of the field to the hand and the effect of "Acid" reduces the ATK of your opponent's monsters.
 
 
* This card's original [[ATK]] (2800) is a combination of the 1400 ATK of "[[Atlantean Attack Squad]]" and "[[Atlantean Marksman]]", while its original [[DEF]] (1600) is based just on the 1600 DEF of "[[Atlantean Heavy Infantry]]", which are valid monsters to [[Tribute]] and [[Special Summon]] it.
 
** Fittingly, this card and the last two mentioned monsters debuted in ''[[Structure Deck: Roar of the Sea Emperor]]''/''[[Realm of the Sea Emperor Structure Deck]]'', while "Attack Squad" was likely released as a teaser in the ''[[Return of the Duelist]]'' [[Core Booster]] pack two months prior.
