In ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'', Torterra helped Paul's brutal training of {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}. It fired {{m|Hyper Beam}} for Chimchar to dodge, followed by a {{m|Leaf Storm}} which trapped and badly injured Chimchar. In ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]'' it was used in the semi-finals of the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]]. It was paired off with [[Ash's Staravia]] and was up against [[Brock's Croagunk]] and [[Holly]]'s {{p|Farfetch'd}}. Paul showed total disregard for Ash, ordering Torterra to blast Farfetch'd with Hyper Beam, not caring that Staravia was hit as well. With Farfetch'd out, Croagunk challenged Torterra and managed to damage it with a powerful Brick Break to the head, similar to its battle against Garchomp. Before Croagunk could follow up, Torterra recharged and hit Croagunk with Leaf Storm, winning the round single-handedly. | In ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'', Torterra helped Paul's brutal training of {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}.

It also witnessed the evolution of Turtwig and his loss of speed. Later on, it used Frenzy Plant against Paul's Weavile in a practice battle to improve Torterra's reflexes; however, it remained distracted by Ash's Grotle who was in the Pokémon Center at the time. While Ash's Grotle was training to become faster, Torterra came forwards on its own to show him that a Pokémon could still be powerful by coping with its lack of speed with strong defense. To prove this, it battled [[Ash's Gliscor]] in a practice match. After teaching this, Torterra returned to Paul's camp. Paul, while curious as to where Torterra had gone, did not push the issue. | ||
In ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', Torterra was Paul's first choice of Pokémon during his and Ash's [[Full Battle]]. Ash substituted {{AP|Buizel}} for {{AP|Gliscor}}, who used {{m|Sand Attack}} and its ability to fly to dodge Giga Drain. However, Paul and Torterra used Frenzy Plant to lull Gliscor into a false sense of security and when Ash continued to attack at close range, Torterra {{m|Crunch}}ed Gliscor's tail and used Giga Drain to sap energy to recover. However, Gliscor used {{m|Fire Fang}} to injure Torterra, and was recalled by Ash. {{AP|Staraptor}} went up against the disadvantaged and tired Torterra, but it became aware that Paul predicted this and Torterra hit with a super-effective {{m|Stone Edge}} before Paul recalled it. | In ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', Torterra was Paul's first choice of Pokémon during his and Ash's [[Full Battle]].

In ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]'', it fought against [[Ash's Infernape|Ash's Chimchar]], where it was shown to control its {{m|Stone Edge}} at will to mow down its faster opponents.

However, Paul does not toy with Gliscor this time and it is knocked out with a single Frenzy Plant. Ash deliberated and chose to send out {{AP|Pikachu}}, but Torterra was recalled and not used for the rest of the battle. | ||
In ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]'', Torterra was at Reggie's house, along with Paul's Weavile, {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}, and {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}}. It was unhappy to hear that Paul had lost in the quarterfinals of the Lily of the Valley Conference. | In ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]'', Torterra was at Reggie's house, along with Paul's Weavile, {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}, and {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}}.
