Why is my Alocasia Polly ‘special’? (startrek.website)

I am having a heck of a time trying to research why she is the way she is and what to do about it. She’s definitely alive. I harvested a lot of little baby seedlings in her roots (which are growing beautifully btw). I’d love if someone can help me understand why she is the way she is and what I can do to promote stem and leaf growth.

Gosh, I wish I could put my plants outside but they will be instantly destroyed by city nature. I’m not even sure how she ended up like this. Her leaves just fell off naturally and never regenerated. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I just put them on the front porch, and it works well
