Torterra is listed as a Grass/Ground type in the current Pokémon Champions format, with usage data pulled from competitive teams, tournament results and Showdown-ready pastes tracked by MetaVGC. This page brings together its most common moveset, nature, ability, item, teammates and type weaknesses so you can judge where Torterra fits in a VGC team.
The most common build highlights Shell Armor, Leftovers and Adamant 2/32/0/0/0/32. Its frequent moves include Leech Seed, Wood Hammer, Wide Guard, and Earthquake. Treat those choices as a data-backed starting point: they show what players are bringing, while EV spreads, Tera Type and the final move slot should still respond to your expected matchups.
Defensively, Torterra has important weaknesses to ice 4x, bug 2x, fire 2x, flying 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as oranguru, krookodile, charizard-mega-x, talonflame, and rotom-wash appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
