#152, Chikorita
Intersting Fact:Chicory is an herb, and the suffix 'ita denotes small size. Hmm....
Pokedex Entry:Chikorita, by nature, are docile Pokémon that love to soak up the sun's rays. This can be attributed to the benefits of the photosynthesis process that occurs when the rays of the sun impact the Pokémon's leaf, and its body, for that matter. The leaf serves multiple purposes; in its natural environment, its leaf detects the density of humidity and temperature in the atmosphere to help it seek warm places. The pleasant aroma that wafts from the leaf can be used by Chikorita in battle by waving it around to becalm the foe and keep it at bay.

#153, Bayleaf
INterseting Fact: Bayleaf looks like a Sauropod
Pokedex Entry: Bayleef looks like a cartoony sauropod. It has a pale yellow body supported by four legs and a rather long neck and tail. On top of its head is a single large leaf and around its neck are seven oval-shaped, striped leaves. Bayleef's most defining trait is the "necklace" of seven tubular leaves that is located around its neck. Each of these curled up leaves contains inside it a tree shoot. From these leaves wafts a spicy scent that has stimulating properties to those who smell it. It can cheer people up, restore their health, make them more energetic and even heighten their drive for competition.

#154, Meganium
Interesting Fact: Meganium's name is the same in both japanese, french, and english, which isin't very common!
Pokedex Entry: Meganium is a large, imposing green creature resembling a brachiosaurus, but with antennae and a large flower growing around its collar. Despite it's feminine appearance, it is primarily a male species, female individuals outnumbered seven to one by males, so female Meganium are understandably a precious commodity.
The pheremones within its flower are its defense against those who would attack it for its size; they give off a fragrance that can instill feelings of peace and calm in all around it, thus suppressing their need to attack Meganium for food. This fragrance is effective enough to affect even a Pokémon like Primeape, which is noted for its unmatched temper.
Meganium also has magically natural powers in its breath, which somehow is able to restore life to dead plants and grass.

#155, Cyndaquil
Intersting Fact: Hinoarashi, Cyndaquils japanese name, can be tranlsated into 'fire storm' and is a pun of yamaarashi, the old owrd for 'porcupine'
Pokedex Entry: When not seen curled up, Cyndaquil are covered with dull-yellow fur with a rich streak of blue running from the tip of its snout over its head and spreading out to cover the majority of its back. There are also four spots of red fur on the back; these have special characteristics (see below). Due to its timidity, few have ever seen Cyndaquil with its eyes fully opened, so a proper eye color has not been documented. While it is a quadruped, Cyndaquil is more than capable of maneuvering on two legs.Though it is called the Fire Mouse Pokémon, Cyndaquil bears a closer resemblance to the echidna, porcupine or hedgehog than the mouse. Although it is not covered in physical spines like these animals, when Cyndaquil is frightened or angry, it can focus its internal energy to produce blazing "spines" of flame from the red vent spots on its back. Cyndaquil's fur is flame-resistant, as is that of the other two Pokémon in its evolutionary line.

Cyndaquil are generally timid and not naturally aggressive, and are often seen curled into a ball for protection. This action leaves its back and special flame-emitting vent fur exposed. When predators and enemies stalk too close, Cyndaquil unleashes a furious flame from the vents as a deterrent. If provoked further, Cyndaquil will intensify its flames, creating a smokescreen that will buy it some time to escape

#156, Quilava
Intersting Fact:'quils' are hollow and are genreally on porcupines for protection. They pierce the skin and are very painful
Pokedex Entry: Quilava are noted for their speed, and can nimbly evade attacks while scorching their enemies. They can also create gusts of superheated air. The non-flammable fur on a Quilava's back allows it to withstand any Fire-type attack, as well as burn enemies in close contact. PLus, they're really cute!

#157, Typhlosion
Interesting Fact: The name Typhlosion has several possible origins. It could be a combination of typhoon and explosion. Another possibility is that it is a combination of Typhon, a figure in Greek mythology, and explosion. Typhon in Greek mythology is said to have had children with a monster named Echidna. Since the echidna is also a type of animal, and since Typhlosion's base form, Cyndaquil, is classified as an echidna, this is also a likely source of the name. Its Japanese name is a likely a misspelling of the word bakufū, an explosive blast
Pokedex Entry: Unlike Cyndaquil, Typhlosion bears no relation to the echidna, instead resembling something of a massive biped weasel, ferret, badger, but possibly even a bear by its great size and strength. Its body is heavy, but despite that, it's capable of obtaining incredible speeds. The number of special vents it possesses has dropped to the row on its upper back; however, it can put forth a tremendous amount of heat. Typhlosion could also resemble a lion because of the ring of fire around its neck much like a mane. Typhlosion carries the same coloration of its lower forms. Its yellow fur is brighter than it is on Quilava, yet still duller than Cyndaquil. Its fur is incredibly coarse and somewhat shaggy, but it is still fire-proof.
Far more aggressive than either Cyndaquil or Quilava, Typhlosion are exceedingly hard to find out in the plains. They are a known cause of grassfires as the heat they expel is hot enough to cause the air around them to shimmer. It viciously assaults its opponents, reducing them to ashes from its incredibly hot fire.
Though not color-blind, Typhlosion have slightly poorer eyesight than Quilava due to smaller pupils. It makes up for this by possessing a keen sense of smell and remarkable hearing. Capable of moving on either two feet or four, it can also make incredible leaps to attack opponents from above.
