Read more ↓Turtwig, the Tiny Leaf Pokémon, is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV as one of the three starter Pokémon from the Sinnoh region. Known for its sturdy shell and the small sapling growing on its head, Turtwig is vital to its ecosystem as it undertakes photosynthesis with its body, making oxygen. Its natural habitat includes lush forests and clearings where sunlight is abundant, allowing the leaf on its head to thrive. If the leaf on its head wilts, it's a sign that Turtwig is thirsty. Turtwig evolves into Grotle at level 18, and then into Torterra at level 32, becoming a formidable Grass/Ground-type Pokémon, essentially a walking forest. In the games, Turtwig is a popular choice for players seeking a reliable starter with strong defensive capabilities. In the anime, Ash Ketchum famously caught a Turtwig, showcasing its playful yet determined personality. Culturally, Turtwig represents growth, nature, and new beginnings, often appearing in merchandise and media related to the Sinnoh region. Its endearing design and role as a starter have solidified its place in the hearts of many Pokémon fans worldwide.
