TirtougaPlasma Blast #27 Pokémon Card

Tirtouga is a Water/Rock type Pokémon introduced in Generation V, known as the Prototurtle Pokémon. It is the pre-evolution of Carracosta. Tirtouga is a prehistoric Pokémon, revived from a Cover Fossil, and its design is based on an ancient sea turtle. Its natural habitat would have been ancient oceans, where it likely hunted for food. In the Pokémon games, Tirtouga plays a significant role in showcasing the fossil revival mechanic, allowing players to bring extinct Pokémon back to life.
