Although Telence does not appear in actual gameplay, the game's internal files contain various assets suggesting that a functional 4 star assist statue may have been in the works. However, this never came to fruition prior to the game's end of service.

Telence and Atum both have a number of animation files hinting at an in-game assist ability. The animations in question are codenamed "bet" in reference to Atum's ability, making it possible he might have had a chance based ability similar to Daniel J. D'Arby's assist.
