[Pokémon] The origin of the grass type

This is from a few years ago, but I just stumbled upon it. It was a very fascinating read on the development of Pokémon and their different types. The changes that happen during a game’s development are really interesting.

The fire/ice/electricity vs fire/water/grass question is one I had recently playing a fanrom of Pokemon. Grass felt so out place once I really thought about it. As a child it really bothered me that Zapdos and Jolteon were not a grass types. So I went down the rabbit hole and ended up on this article and it totally made sense the way they laid it out. I really miss these types of articles. They probably don’t generate as much traffic as listicles, so people don’t invest the time to make them anymore.
