==Biography==
Gardenia's Turtwig was used when Gardenia challenged Ash in Eterna Forest, after she recalled her Cherubi. Gardenia's Turtwig evaded Ash's Turtwig's Tackle attacks, then used Leech Seed to hurt it. With another Tackle, Gardenia's Turtwig defeated Ash's Turtwig. Ash then sent Staravia, who used Wing Attack against Gardenia's Turtwig. However, the latter was able to dodge its attacks, then went into a bush to evade its Aerial Ace attack. Finally, it used Leaf Storm to defeat Staravia. Later, Team Rocket attempted to capture Cheryl's Mothim, but Gardenia's Turtwig stopped Jessie's Seviper by biting its tail. It then fired a Leech Seed to prevent Team Rocket's machine, and Ash's Pikachu blasted them away.DP031: The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!
Nando, using Roselia, battled Gardenia in a Gym Battle, and won.
Turtwig was later used to help protect the Adamant Orb. When Officer Jenny's Stunky released a smell, Jessie became distracted by and threw the orb, which Turtwig safely landed using Leaf Storm.DP036: A Secret Sphere of Influence!
During Ash's Gym battle with Gardenia, after her Cherubi was defeated, Gardenia sent her Turtwig. Turtwig used his incredible speed to evade Staravia's Wing Attack, and repeated to do so until it got stuck between trees. Staravia managed to execute Aerial Ace on it before using Wing Attack, but Turtwig stopped its attack with Leech Seed. Freeing itself, Turtwig used Tackle to defeat Staravia. Turtwig then battled Ash's Turtwig again, who started off with a Tackle. Gardenia's Turtwig fired a Leaf Storm, which Ash's evaded, then climbed a tree to go behind Gardenia's Turtwig. As it went to bite, Ash's Turtwig was stopped by Gardenia's Turtwig's Leech Seed. To restore itself, Ash's Turtwig jumped to evade Leaf Storm and used Synthesis, recovering itself. It retaliated with Razor Leaf, damaging Gardenia's Turtwig. The two Turtwig charged at one another using Tackle, but Gardenia's Turtwig was defeated.DP037: The Grass Menagerie!
Later, when Gardenia and James challenged Ash and Dawn to a Tag battle, Turtwig fought alongside James' Cacnea. As Ash's Aipom fired Swift, Cacnea got hit by the attack, so it retaliated with Pin Missile, along with Turtwig's Leaf Storm. Aipom and Pachirisu evaded these attacks, and while Pachirisu went to use Spark, it missed and got bitten by Turtwig by its tail. Pachirisu retaliated with Discharge, which just hit Cacnea. Continuing the battle, Pachirisu used Spark, avoiding Cacnea's Needle Arm and shocking it. While Gardenia was telling James to have Cacnea use Needle Arm to learn Drain Punch (which countered Aipom's Focus Punch), her Turtwig got defeated by Pachirisu's Spark. Cacnea got soon defeated, failing at using Drain Punch and got hit by Focus Punch and Swift.DP054: Once There Were Greenfields
