Ash was a disastrous Torterra trainer. He always wanted Torterra to run like Pikachu; he didn't understand anything, neither at the beginning nor at the end. This is lifelong psychological abuse for that Torterra.

>>58735927Paul played to Torterra’s strengths by not focusing on speed but rather defense and offenseAsh didn’t because he’s always focused on speed, even with his slower Pokémon. It’s why his Torterra never won a match.
It is funny that even after learning how to be a tank, Torterra found a way to become a speedster. Shame he still lost because it was fun watching him run around like a freight train
>>58735927Paul lost 6-0 to Brandon and Brandon didn't even need to use more than 3 Pokemon the whole battle.
