Gardenia's Turtwig (Japanese: ナタネのナエトル Natane's Naetle) is Gardenia's main Pokémon. It is voiced by 伊東みやこ Miyako Itō in Japanese and by Billy Beach in English.

In the anime

It was first seen in The Grass-Type is Always Greener! where it battled against Turtwig and Staravia. Turtwig was proven to be both able to move at amazing speeds and very powerful. It was untouchable by any of Ash's Pokémon and won the battle.

Turtwig wasn't seen again until A Secret Sphere of Influence! where it helped protect the Adamant Orb. It was also revealed in the episode that Nando's Roselia had beaten Turtwig in a gym battle.

It then appeared again in The Grass Menagerie! where it battled in Ash's gym battle against Gardenia. With its impressive speed, it defeated Staravia but lost to Turtwig after a fierce battle.

It again appeared in Once There Were Greenfields! where it was used in a double battle alongside James's Cacnea. It was defeated by Pachirisu.
