Grotle (Japanese: ????? Hayashigame) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It evolves from Turtwig starting at level 18 and evolves into Torterra starting at level 32.

Biology

 
Grotle with acorns

Grotle is a quadruped Pokémon with light green skin and a large shell covering its back. The shell is composed of hardened soil and conforms to the shape of Grotle's body, extending from its forehead to the tip of its short tail. The shell appears sectioned and is yellow with three long, brown ridges atop it. There are two bush-like trees growing around the outermost ridges. Grotle's lower jaw is yellow and has triangular extensions on the cheeks, while its upper jaw has a hooked tip. Its feet are yellow and have three claws each.

Grotle has the ability to sense where pure water wells up, and will carry other Pokémon on its back to these sources. Grotle lives in forests, but leaves during the day to allow more sunlight on its trees. Berries grow on the trees, attracting some species of Pokémon. In the anime, Grotle is seen to produce acorn-like nuts instead.

Pokédex entries

Episode Pokémon Source Entry
DP100 Grotle Ash's Pokédex Grotle, the Grove Pokémon and the evolved form of Turtwig. Grotle lives near water in forests, and leaves the forest during the day to allow light to shine on the tree on its shell.
This concludes the entries from the Diamond & Pearl series.

In the manga

 
Grotle in Pokémon Adventures

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Main article: Tru

Diamond had a Grotle named Tru, which is his Turtwig's evolved form. It became stronger and (slightly) faster in this new form, but was scarcely used for battles, as it would have been ineffective against Gardenia's Grass-type Pokémon, though it still helped Platinum train for future Gym battles. Soon afterwards, the Grotle became a Torterra alongside Chimler in Veilstone City fighting a legion of Galactic Grunts, and its power and endurance grew tremendously.

In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga

Jun's Turtwig evolved into a Grotle off-screen and later into Torterra.
