turtwig is similar to bulbasaur but i consider it a better take on what bulbasaur goes for because it is a more literal (albeit still shrunk down) turtle landmass. i agree turtles aren't always cool but giant turtle islands own

also gen 4 starters are all kind of up there in terms of versatility and feeling pretty unique as far as starters go but i like the turtwig line's general playstyle the most since it's pretty much just a rock or pure ground type in disguise (and with healing perks). the more naturally fun defensive pick too since torterra gets attacks in both types unlike empoleon who still gets hardly any suitable steel moves for some reason
