Who’s that Pokémon?


Got a feeling it’s a trichocereus terscheckii. An educated opinion would be much appreciated. Thanks

No expert but perhaps something from the pachanoi/bridgesii group as the epidermis appears smooth and glossy. I grew this from seed. While I don't recall ever ordering Terscheckii, it's what I assumed it might be. However I must admit ignorance.
