Order Grotle — free

Grotle is a Grass-type Pokémon (National Dex #388) with a middling stat total of 405. You can have one built for Scarlet & Violet, BDSP and Legends: Arceus, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Attack at 89, which makes it a balanced all-rounder. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Grotle takes super-effective damage from Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, Bug. It resists Water, Electric, Grass, Ground. Its ability options are Overgrow, Shell Armor, and you choose which one your copy carries.

Grotle evolves into Torterra (32). You can order any stage directly rather than raising it — useful when you want the final evolution at a specific level, or the pre-evolution with an egg move it can only learn early.

In-game, Grotle has 22 recorded encounter locations across Scarlet & Violet (6), BDSP (14), Legends: Arceus (2) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. Note that at least one encounter is shiny-locked in Scarlet & Violet, meaning it cannot be found shiny there no matter how long you hunt. A shiny Grotle ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
