Bayleef

Bayleaf (Japanese: ベイリーフ Beiriifu) is the -type Starter Pokémon of the Johto region, evolved from Chikorita.

Physiology
Bayleaf is a yellow, dinosaur-like Pokémon. Around its neck are several small leaves that Bayleaf can shoot at opponents. There is also a large leaf on its head, which it inherits from its pre-evolution, Chikorita. This Pokémon is derived from a sauropod.

Behavior
It is very outgoing like Chikorita, but more cautious. It looks up to Meganium and other grass types for knowledge. It will hide from danger and have its mother fend for her young. If anything to happen to the mother, it won't take care of its siblings, and rather join other grass types for protection, or join a herd of traveling Meganium. There have been instances where Chikorita joined groups of Jumpluff for help. Bayleaf often can fend for themselves.
