This thing is just an oval lump with a beak and a tree glued to its back. What exactly do people like about it that makes it so special compared to the rest of the Grass starters?

It's thicc armour
The World Tortoise concept is cool and the design is executed well in my opinion. I was a Venusaur guy until Torterra came along.

Turtwig is one of the cutest starters
Torterra gives a calmer vibe than a lot of other starters - it looks like a massive, plodding ankylosaurus+tortoise with a tiny landscape on its back. When DPPt came out I liked the idea of riding on its back, adventuring with a portable garden
Gen IV was my least favorite, but I thought this guy was the coolest and had a decidedly different design inspiration than most of the starters we'd seen that far.

>tree glued to its back
kys autistic kid. he's a Aspidochelone (google it). the tree and moss is growing on his back
>an oval lump
well, i guess all pokemon are oval lumps then since your eyes are clearly fucked up and dont work properly
>what makes it so special compared to the rest of the grass starters
his unique grass/ground typing. He has a fucking tree growing on his back. Venasaur has a big flower, maganium has a big flower. sceptile has big leaves. chesnaught is fucking bald as fuck worthless design of a grass starter
the gen 4 starters are a perfect combination of not just boring getting bigger like the gen 2 starters but also not suddenly turning into an anthro mess like the gen 6 and 7 starters.

>chesnaught is fucking bald as fuck worthless design of a grass starterTorterra is still amazing tho'

frankly, I would have been so happy if what we got in gen 7 was "just gets bigger" versions of all the second evos

You mean...a tortoise, the animal it's based on?
