Collecting Turtwig

Masakazu Fukuda has illustrated Turtwig three times, more than any other artist across its 18-card, 16-set run. Most of that pool sits at common or uncommon — 15 of 18 cards — so building out the line costs little beyond the DP Black Star promo that tops the chase list. As the first stage of the Turtwig-Grotle-Torterra grass line, it's an easy binder-opener page, cheap to fill and light on premium chase pressure.

Collect & display your Turtwig cards

Building a Turtwig page is a great themed display — gather your favorite art across sets onto one spread. Free printable dividers and our binder guides help keep it sharp.
