Gespeshio

Named after the Higherlark Gespeshio, this planet is a gas giant like Makrodon. What makes Gespeshio interesting is the fact that even though it is smaller than Makrodon (about 1/2 the size) it seems that the weather on Gespeshio is much worse than on Makrodon. Intricate cloud formations are visible all over the surface with multiple layers at starkly different altitudes. Also the winds on this planet are the fastest and most chaotic of any of the planets.

It is thought that Gespeshio's rotation speed is the cause of this erratic weather as it is the fastest rotating planet in the Battal solar system, with a rotational period of 100 Elim or 1/4th of the Battal day. Stangely enough Gespeshio's rotation speed changes as the Elim changes taking exactly 100 Elim to complete a rotation.
