Of all types, grass is one of the most abundant. The premise of catching Pokemon in the games literally involves walking in tall grass. Of course, grass types will be everywhere, giving players a chance to catch some excellent Pokemon.

This legendary Pokemon may look cute and cuddly, but it is mighty powerful. Celebi is known as the Time Travel Pokemon and has been elusive since day one.

It is one of the first Pokemon to be obtained in a game exclusively through an event. It often plays an important role in the story of the anime and manga. It is basically the Mew of the Johto region.


#4 - Ferrothorn

Ferrothorn is a tank of a Pokemon. Its defensive stats in competitive battling are some of the best. It can stall, set up, and take all the punches needed. The steel/grass typing makes it ultra-weak to fire type moves, but that's about it.

Everything else has a hard time taking Ferrothorn down. It is not as iconic as some other Pokemon, but it deserves some recognition.


#3 - Venusaur

Now, it is a mainstay of competitive battling. It's amazing special attack and ability to Gigantamax has brought Venusaur to the forefront once again.


#2 - Roserade
