POKEMON ARTICLE 1 Since the very beginning in 1996 with the release of Pokemon Red and Green in Japan, The Pokemon Company has done far more than just produce a line of popular video games. It has become a mainstay in mainstream culture worldwide for the past twenty-years. Aside from virtual media there's been literature, a super popular trading card game, anime, manga, a plethora of other merchandise, and hundreds of Pokemon, the company's bread and butter. The Pokemon Company has never failed to create new and interesting Pokemon for their avid fans. And within those vast hundreds over the last two decades, some Pokemon have exhibited lightning abilities, others have water powers; the list goes on with some Pokemon even being able to summon rocks as a one of their special abilities. But then there's another type of Pokemon, and at first glance you may think this one is some sort of leafy dinosaur, with its mustard yellow and green tree-like characteristics. But upon closer look at this four- legged, long necked, smiling, red-eyed creature you see a Pokemon named Bayleef, who was once Chikorita before evolution. From a shooting ability that leaves people Peppy, some evolutionary chain statistics, origins and more, today we take a look at Pokemon's resident tree lover Bayleef, and just what makes this Pokemon so special. Introduced in generation two, which is pretty much season two in Pokemon talk, Bayleef has been around since the relative beginnings of the Pokemon world debuting in the Pokemon Games Gold and Silver in 1999 and then in the anime series as the second ever catch of series protagonist Ash Ketchum (Not as Bayleef but as Chikorita). In the episode titled The Chikorita Rescue, Bayleef appears appears as his first evolution Pokemon Chikorita. POKEMON ARTICLE 2 SAME CLIENT Nintendo began as a company in the late 1800s, and over time much like the hundreds of Pokemon today, it evolved. Other forms of entertainment and products took place over the years and one of those comes in the form of The Pokemon Company which in 1996 gave the world the release of Pokemon games Red and Green in Japan. But it wasn't until Pokemon mainline games Gold and Silver debuted that a little Pokemon who looks like a ferret with flames would make his presence known in the franchise. His name is Quilava, the second form evolution Pokemon after Cyndaquil and this small yet fierce Pokemon has been exciting fans not only in the hit mainline video games but you can catch this Pokemon's likeness on everything from from t-shirts, trading cards, an anime series, and more. With a proven track record of The Pokemon Company creating new and interesting Pokemon for their avid fans, Quilava doesn't disappoint. So from the red and yellow flames on his back to all the times he's evolved on screen, let's take a look at what makes this twenty-year old fire breather still keep us entertained. After the Pokemon games were such a success in both North America and Japan, the TV series/anime was next to follow. And if video games wasn't a big enough platform to help people get familiar with the franchise, then the series would definitely be the deciding factor. Quilava debuted in Generation two and has remained making appearances all the way up to generation six. Known as the Volcano Pokemon, Quilava and his other evolutionary forms hail from the Jhoto region. Quilava first appeared in the TV series in the episode titled Love, Pokemon Style! This was episode 269 of the series and in it, Quilava belonged to a character named Macy. Quilava goes on to appear in later episodes following his first appearance. In an episode titled Shocks and Bonds, Ash Ketchum uses his Charizard in a battle against Quilava who in the episode is owned by a trainer named Clark.
