Description

And another Mega! This time, giving an old friend a little boost, its Mega Torterra!

The soil shell that covered Torterra has hardened to they point of becoming a powerful metal, stronger than any rock or earth, thus gaining the Steel-typing, changing Torterra's weaknesses. Mega Torterra's shell is adorned with plantlife, and supply it with massive amounts of energy to move it's enormous body, but it also allows it to use all the powers of the earth by granting it the ability "Terra Firma". Mega Torterra is almost twice as big and over three times as heavy after undergoing Mega Evolution, granting it huge amount of power while furthering it's defensive prowess.

*"Terra Firma: Ground and Rock type moves used by this pokemon recieve a boost."(50%)

Torterra is such a sad case. Back in pokemon Pearl, I remember when I first evolved my Turtwig into a Grotle, and how exited I was when it evolved again into Torterra, back when I didn't go to any website to find out what pokemon were in-game. Torterra was a beast, destroying pretty much anything with it's Earthquake, while sporting the insanely powerful Leaf Storm and Wood Hammer to annihalate anyone who dares to wander in my way to becoming the champion of Sinnoh. But alas, as I moved on to new regions, and continued further and further, I found out that Torterra, while as badass as it was back in DPP, just couldn't compete in such a brutal metagame that hosts giant steel claded bugs, fire breathing dancing dragons, screaming pixies and super-sonic birds that dive bomb everywhere. It really pained me, and it didn't help that Torterra's Hidden Ability was wasted to Shell Armor. So to mitigate for that, I decided to give it a Mega that will strike fear to the hearts of all who see it. Mega Torterra is bulky, powerful and has a good defensive typing, becoming a stronger, faster Ferrothorn with reliable recovery. 

P.S. Before anyone says anything about the typing being changed, there's Mega Charizard X, Mega Gyarados and Mega Altaria.

Hope you like it!

You basically make it to be four times weak to Fire, but since Steel type Pokemon can learn Ground and Rock type moves it's basically ignored.
