#389
Torterra
ドダイトス (Dodaitose)
Species: Continent Pokémon
Abilities: Overgrow, Shell Armour
Height: 7'03" (2.2 m)
Weight: 683.4 lbs (310.0 kg)
Dex color: GreenPokédex Entries:
- Gen IV
- Diamond: Small Pokémon occasionally gather on its unmoving back to begin building their nests.
- Pearl: Groups of this Pokémon migrating in search of water have been mistaken for "moving forests."
- Platinum: Some Pokémon are born on a Torterra's back and spend their entire life there.
- HeartGold/SoulSilver: Ancient people imagined that beneath the ground, a gigantic Torterra dwelled.
That's right.
THE GREAT A'TUIN, BITCHES.
Okay so technically speaking Torterra is a dual-type, sharing its Grass affinity with Ground, but it is primarily a Grass Type so there. Yes, it is big and slow, but it is a motherfucking World Turtle, y'all. Get Earthquake, Giga Drain, Leaf Storm, and Wood Hammer, and you've got a monster on your hands.
Plus it is a mortherfucking WORLD TURTLE. How cool is that?
