What is the best move set for Torterra?

Answer 1

One good move set:

earthquake (STAB, 100 of pure power)

wood hammer(STAB 120 of pure power-he/ she will take damage)

Stone edge ( 80 of power takes out flying pokmom, and its cool)

rock polish ( makes torterra faste, this will make torterra strike first)

Another good move set:

Curse-Torterra is already slow, so this move won't be bad.

Earthquake-The best ground type move and STAB!

Stone Edge-Takes out almost every type Torterra is Weak to.(Power is 100 not 80.)

Seed Bomb/Wood Hammer-Seed bomb if you don't want damage and wood hammer if you care more about power. Stab!

Another move set:

Since Torterra is both Grass and Ground type, it is best to have Grass and Ground type moves. Though it is also best to have moves to defend itself from Flying, Bug, Fire, and Ice type Pokemon because these are Torterra's weakness. But it isn't too necessary.

Give Torterra Earthquake. Earthquake is a Ground type move, which is very popular Ground type move. It doesn't make contacts to Pokemon that don't touch the ground. Also, in a double battle it hits all Pokemon but itself, unless the foe or ally is above ground. Power is 100, Accuracy is 100% and PP is 10 (max. 16).

Give Torterra Frenzy Plant. It's a very strong Grass type attack. It's also Torterra's special. Just like Earthquake, its makes contact to all Pokemon in a double battle. But like Hyperbeam, after you use it your Pokemon must recharge. Power is 150, Accuracy is 90% and PP is 5 (max. 8).

The thrid move would be Wood Hammer. This is a Grass type move. It is pretty strong and has a good accuracy rate. The problem is that the user gets hurt a bit using it but either way it is a good move to have. Power is 120, Accuracy is 100% and PP is 15 (max. 24).

The last move should be Synthesis. This is also a Grass type move. It has no power or accuracy because it heals your Pokemon. If the weather normal is heals your Pokemon a good amount, but if it's rainy, don't expect a whole lot of healing. If it's sunny expect a lot of healing. This move can keep Torterra out in battle for a long time. PP is 5 (max. 8).

Other good move set :

Wood Hammer, Earthquake, Razor Leaf, and either Rock Slide or Stone Edge

Earthquake, Frenzy Plant, Wood Hammer and Synthesis.

Earthquake, Wood hammer, Giga drain, and Crunch.

Another good move set:

Nature: Adamant (the best) /Impish/Careful (the okay)

• Item: Leftovers
• Earthquake: What's not to like? Power 100, Accuracy 100, PP 10, STAB Damage...a definite must for Torterra.
• Crunch: Power 80, Accuracy 100, PP 15. Although not as good as Earthquake and with no STAB, Crunch allows Torterra to operate effectively against a wider range of opponents.
• Seed Bomb: Wood Hammer is a better alternative as its Physical, which is Torterra's strong point, but it inflicts Recoil Damage (Power 120 Accuracy 100 PP 15 Recoil 1/3 damage dealt). Seed Bomb might be weaker (Power 80 Accuracy 100 PP 15) but it doesn't do recoil. Seed Bomb is available through breeding (Bulbasaur, Sunkern, Sunflora, Exxeggute, Exxeggutor, Shroomish, Breloom - which is the hard way), or Move Tutor at the Survival Area (Sorry, Platinum only but this is the easy way).
• Leech Seed/Synthesis/Stone Edge: Depends on your preferences. Leech Seed damages your opponent by 1/8th of his max HP and drains 1/16th to you (Power - Accuracy 90 PP 10). Synthesis restores a varying amount of HP depending on weather conditions (1/2 max HP when rainy, full when sunny, anything else 2/3). Stone Edge is to guard against ice-types but if you have other Pokemon to deal with ice-types then forget it. (Power 100 Accuracy 80 PP 5 Effect high critical-hit ratio.)

Another move set:

Frenzy Plant- awesome grass move

Wood Hammer- a powerful grass move again

Earthquake- A good ground move

Iron head- accurate and offers protection against ice which is a 4x weakness

Another move set:

Razor Leaf: Power-55 Acc.-95% PP-25 PLUS Razor Leaf has a high critical hit ratio.

Giga Drain: Power-60 Acc.-100% PP-10 if you hold Big Root You get 30% more HP.

Earthquake:

Crunch: Power-80 Acc.100% PP-15, plus the dude you hit might flinch.

Another suggestion:

earthquake - obvious reasons

wood hammer - recoil damage, but otherwise awesome

stone edge - good against ice and fly

crunch - otherwise you can kill barely anything

don't use synthesis; it restores HP, but what's wrong with a hyper potion?

you could use superpower, but its got enough uber moves already.
