Chikorita is a quadruped reptilian Pokémon, who acts as one of the first Pokémon the player can obtain in Pokémon Gold and Silver. It has a large leaf on the top of its head, which it uses as a means to measure the humidity and temperature of its surroundings. Chikorita's name may be a combination of the chicory plant, as well as the Spanish suffix for something that is small, "-ita".Chikorita will be a starter pokemon in the upcoming pokemon game Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Bayleef is the evolution of Chikorita. Bayleef may be based on a brontosaurus. Bayleef's name may originate from the bay leaf, a part of the bay laurel. In the Spaceworld demo, it was discovered that Bayleef was originally a Pokémon called Hanamogura, meaning "plant mole" in Japanese. The design itself features a large flower, resembling a lotus blossom. In the Pokémon anime season Pokémon: The Johto Journeys, Chikorita is one of Ash Ketchum's Pokémon, which eventually evolves into a Bayleef.Meganium is a dinosaur-like Pokémon that evolves from Bayleef. Meganium resembles a sauropod, with a large pink flower around its long neck and stamen-like antennae.Meganium's name is a combination of the word "mega" and the geranium flower.The Pokémon was used heavily to promote New Pokémon Snap, in which it appears as one of its "boss battles".
