Grass type

The is one of the eighteen Pokémon elemental types. Grass is one of the three Starter types, forming a perfectly triangular relationship with Fire and Water. 
Many Grass types are based on plants and fungi, not necessarily grass (Pokémon such as Cacturne, which is a cactus, and Foongus, which is a mushroom). Many Grass-type Pokémon also belong to the Plant Egg Group. Several Grass types are paired with the type (Pokémon such as Oddish, Venusaur and Bellsprout), reflecting the toxicity of several plants towards mainly humans. Most Grass-types are also simply animals with plant life attached to them (Pokémon such as Bulbasaur, Paras, Sceptile, Gogoat and Tropius). Some Grass-types are also based on mythical creatures (Pokémon such as Shiftry, which is based on a Tengu, and Tangela, which is based on Medusa).
Most Grass-types can learn "seed", "spore" or "powder" moves that inflict status (usually Poison, Paralysis or Sleep), including a unique type of status caused by Leech Seed; thus, many Grass-types employ a passive style of play during battle. In terms of direct attacks, Grass-types drain HP from opponents with moves like Giga Drain, or attack with leaves, vines, petals, wood or sunlight.
Famous Grass-type Pokémon Trainers include Erika, fourth Gym Leader of the Kanto region; Gardenia, the second Gym Leader of Sinnoh; Cilan, one of the three Striaton Gym Leaders in Unova; Ramos, the fourth Gym Leader of the Kalos region; Mallow, an Akala Island Trial Captain in Alola; and Milo, first Gym Leader of Galar.

==Relations with other types==
*They're strong against the type because plants absorb minerals from it and open through the ground using their roots.
*They're strong against the type because plants can crack stones and rocks using their roots.
*They're strong against the type because plants absorb water for their own benefit. Wood also floats in water.
*They're weak against the type because insects eat plants.
*They're weak against the type because fire can easily burn plants.
* They're weak against the type because many birds eat parts of plants (like fruits and leaves). Also, an extremely powerful wind gust can cause plants to be uprooted.
*They're weak against the type because most plants can't resist frost, and die most of the time as a result.
*They're weak against the type because herbicides like weedkiller are used to exterminate unwanted herbs. It could also be said that Poison represents pollution and Grass represents nature, and nature is damaged thanks to pollution.
*They resist the type because plants are made of materials that don't conduct electricity, like wood. Also, plants divert electricity to the ground.
*The type resists them because plants can't degrade metals. It might also come from the fact that machines (like weed-wackers and lawnmowers) are often used to kill plants. Strangely, they're not weak to the steel type.
* The type resists them because in ancient mythology, dragons were immune to forces of nature (Grass, Water, Electric and Fire).
*They resist themselves because plants send out oxygen to other plants for their benefits like photosynthesis.
==Trivia==
*All Grass-type First partner Pokémon until Generation V resembled a Reptile of some sort. Chespin, Rowlet, Grookey and Sprigatito broke the trend.
*The Grass-type is tied with the -type for the most weaknesses (5). 
**However, if both are combined, the weakness outcome only comes out as 4.
*Bulbasaur and Rowlet are the only basic stage dual-typed First partner Pokémon. Curiously, they both are Grass-type starters.
*All of the final evolutions of the Grass-type First partner Pokémon resemble an extinct animal:
**Venusaur resembles the or .
**Meganium resembles the .
**Sceptile resembles the .
**Torterra resembles the , , and .
**Serperior resembles the .
**Chesnaught resembles the .
**Decidueye resembles the .
**Rillaboom resembles the .
**Meowscarada resembles the .
*More Grass-type Pokémon evolve with evolution stones than any other type:
**Gloom evolves into Vileplume with a Leaf Stone.
** Gloom evolves into Bellossom with a Sun Stone.
**Weepinbell evolves into Victreebel with a Leaf Stone.
**Exeggcute evolves into Exeggutor with a Leaf Stone.
**Sunkern evolves into Sunflora with a Sun Stone.
**Lombre evolves into Ludicolo with a Water Stone.
**Nuzleaf evolves into Shiftry with a Leaf Stone.
**Roselia evolves into Roserade with a Shiny Stone.
**Pansage evolves into Simisage with a Leaf Stone.
**Cottonee evolves into Whimsicott with a Sun Stone.
**Petilil evolves into Lilligant with a Sun Stone.
**Capsakid evolves into Scovillain with a Fire Stone.
*The Grass-type has been paired with every other type.
**As of Generation IX, all combinations have no longer being unique type with the exception of type combination, as only Snover line who had the combination of and type to date.
