Bulbasaur

So, Bulbasaur. Pokemon zero-zero-one. I always thought this unusual plant-reptile hybrid was an odd choice for the very first in the pokedex. I like Bulbasaur, don't get me wrong, it's an adorable, pudgy reptile with a symbiotic plant on its back, but Charmander or Squirtle are a little more "normal" for the front spot, you know? Anyway, I thought for the longest time that Bulbasaur was supposed to be a horned frog, or "pac-man" frog, and I'm still inclined to see it that way, even if the "saur" in its name indicates a non-amphibian herpetoid.
