Torterra (Japanese: ドダイトス Dodaitose) is a dual-type Grass/Ground Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. It evolves from Grotle starting at level 32. It is the final form of Turtwig.
BIOLOGY
Torterra is a bulky quadruped Pokémon resembling a tortoise, with a large shell covering its back. There is a single, oak-like tree and three triangular, stony extensions resembling mountain peaks on the top of the shell. There is a patch of brown, resembling soil, next to the tree. A white rim surrounds the shell, and forms a diamond-shaped continuation on the front. Torterra's body appears sectioned, with the upper half being green and the lower half brown. Its mouth is jagged and at the end of its snout is a dark brown beak, giving it the appearance of a snapping turtle. Its lower jaw is green and there are two large spikes protruding from its cheeks. Torterra's small, red eyes are encircled by a black ring. Its legs are thick and they have four toes each, which appear as if they are actually jagged stones. There are three toes on the front and one on the heel. Torterra's large and clean shell supports the lives of many small Pokémon, which occasionally gather and build their nests upon the shell. Some are born and spend their entire life there. Torterra migrate in search of water, creating the illusion of "moving forests". However, it is typically immobile.

TRIVIA
- Torterra shares its category with Groudon. They are both known as the Continent Pokémon.- No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Torterra.

- Torterra is the heaviest final form of a starter Pokémon, weighing 683.4 lbs. (310.0 kg).
NAME ORIGIN
Torterra has aspects of a snapping turtle and an ankylosaur, armored dinosaurs. Its large features and spikes may also be inspired by extinct Meiolania and Proganochelys turtles. In concept, it may be based on the World Turtles in various mythologies that carry worlds upon their backs, or perhaps the Black Tortoise of Asian legend.
Torterra is a combination of tortoise and terra (Latin for ground). Terra may also refer to terrapins. It also bears similarity to tuatara (a reptile similar to a lizard) and totara (a type of tree), both found in New Zealand.
Dodaitose may be a combination of 土 do (earth or ground), 大 dai (large), and tortoise. It may also involve 土台 dodai (foundation).
