Talk:Ash's Torterra

Evolution

Turtwig might evolve once it learns Energy Ball, just like with Snorunt, when it finally learnt Ice Beam it evolved.

I doubt it. As far as I know, Turtwig will be Ash's first Sinnoh release. The only way he'd possibly keep Turtwig as his signature Sinnoh starter opposite Paul's Torterra is if he had all three Sinnoh starters, and since Dawn has Piplup, that's not going to be happening.

Sure, we all thought Turtwig would be Ash's signature Sinnoh starter at first, but that's when we thought Chimchar was Paul's starter and that Brock would be the one out of the group that would eventually get a Chimchar, be it Paul's or a wild one.

Since it turned out Turtwig was Paul's starter, Chimchar's eventually going to seal its place as Ash's signature Sinnoh starter similar to how Charizard was to Kanto, Bayleef was to Johto, and Sceptile was to Hoenn. Odds point to Turtwig either being released, jump over to Brock's team, or sent to Prof. Oak's, the last one the only possible way Ash would even keep Turtwig. Don't be surprised if Ash's signature Grass-type going into Sinnoh's Pokémon League is a Tangela, Snover, or either one of their evolutions.

Yes, there will be a day when Ash has a Water-type starter as his signature for a country. Odds are that will be in Generation V, with a new travelling partner taking the Grass-type one. Makes sense, since May had the Fire-type one! --Shiningpikablu252 17:03, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

What is with the theory that Ash will release Turtwig? I know the writers have managed to be unpredictable recently, but come on. Why would they do that?

Anyway, Turtwig has taken Aipom's place as the Pokémon Ash focusses on (besides Pikachu) so I am suspecting an evolution in the near future for that reason. Treecko evolved because it was used in lots of battles not because it learnt Bullet Seed. --FabuVinny ^T-C-S 17:28, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree with Fabu-Vinny. It would be meaningless for Ash to make so much effort on its Energy Ball if he release it!Come on!Everything has the first time!Why couldn't it be the first time that Ash has 2 starters?-Billy4b2004 05:50, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Who would even suggest that Ash would release Turtwig? He may send it back to Porf. Oak's, but not release it. Come on, since when has he ever done a Paul and released any pokemon other than ones that he only temporarily owned or caught as part of a show or something? Never that i remember ~GT4GTR

Route 203?

How is this possible when: 1.) Buenary was caught a few episodes later on route 202 where they started and Ash caught Starly. 2.) They haven't been through Jubilife city yet, and route 203 is on the opposite side. Sorry, but this is just not possible. ~GT4GTR
