Top 10 Best Grass Type Pokemon

I must admit this guy isn't the best choice game-wise. But have you seen him in the anime! He is so awesome he even beat darkrai a LEGENDARY Pokemon. I mean his leaf blade is so powerful. He is so powerful that he tied with May's Blaziken who is a fire type. I bet if that battle wasn't a contest Sceptile would have won. Not only his power but his speed and his never giving up spirit is also amazing. He's so fast May's Blaziken only landed about 4 hits on him whereas he landed about 10. And when he fought with Darkrai he kept on falling down to his Dark Void- Dream Eater combo not to mention the powerful ice beam and dark pulse but he still won thanks to his mega fighting spirit. I mean he is one thing: BEAST.

Seriously people? Sceptile is the best grass type there is. I started out on the third generation games, and THIS pokemon was the first pokemon I ever got. So maybe it holds a very soft spot in my heart but that definitely doesn't cloud my judgment by saying it's the best grass type there is. With great overall stats, particularly speed, and an awesome move pool, Sceptile is a machine. I just recently brought mine over from my diamond and he's better than ever now with SolarBeam, Leaf Storm, Energy Ball, and Frenzy Plant. Mine pretty much single-handedly defeated the Elite Four in Emerald.

Fastest grass Pokemon ever. Amazing attack and it looks like a gecko dinosaur. With leaf blade it's awesome and it can learn rock moves to stop pesky fire types in their tracks. False swipe too for catching Pokemon. It just doesn't get any better than a sceptile. Also he was the only Pokemon awesome enough to help ash beat darkrai in the sinnoh league. Don't forget it being the king of the jungle and jungle combat. Also learns night slash with the move tutor. Sceptile wins, no question.

Honestly Grass type pokemons are full of weakness. They are vulnerable to Fire, Ice, Flying, Poison, Bug. With 5 weakness it is harder to tank opponents attacks. The way I see it you should strike first if you are a grass type and Sceptile follows the principle. With its devil speed, amazing spattk and attk along with decent defenses Sceptile does the job perfectly.

If I only compare him with the first two, Sceptile will always have an edge. he can learn flying moves and can strike first. It is true that the first two are tanks but Sceptile has solid attacks to chop them out

He is a good sweeper.

He can mega-evolve as well.

Has strong moves like leaf storm, leaf blade.

And he is badass.

He was the Pokemon I ever got (my 1st was platinum), and the 1st I got to level 100. I threw a quick claw on this guy, and earthquake 1 shot practically everything. -speed + attack quick claw is just free attack. It is neutral to fire, which is huge,. If your opponent brings out an ice type, just switch. Not to many people will be ready to take on a properly trained torterra. He is also a defensive monster, making leech seed, giga drain, big root with protect possible.

Torterra what can I tell you about this Pokemon. Dual type grass and ground. Ice type Pokemon is very effective against this one but no problem give it a quick claw to use hammer arm first. Okay now fire type earthquake will take on easily. Looks awesome. Can take on anyone no matter who is the opposite Pokemon. Torterra rules...

I love Torterra! MY favorite grass type. I have one in Diamond that is Level 100 with Frenzy Plant, Leaf Storm, Earthquake, and Rock Smash (Not the best moveset but hey, I was young). For all those who are on the fence about using it, USE IT! A physical wall and attacker, an Earthquake from this guy will haunt your opponents nightmares! By far my favorite grass type of all time.

Torterra is the best grass pokemon ever! It eliminates the poison weakness due to its ground type but leaves it more vulnerable to ice moves. I hate it when Cynthia's Milotic uses Ice Beam on my Torterra! Eliminates half of my Torterra's HP then she will restore its HP. Oye. It has a great defense. I still love Venusaur, but I never had one in my diamond and platinum along with charizard and blastoise.

Beats torterra all day, also learns toxic, leech seed, synthesis, and then your choice of a STAB move! His poison typing blocks the synchronize ability from turning toxic back on himself. Do be deceived by his flower, he is NOT delicate and he WILL send you into oblivion, his stats make him an outstanding wall, his moves give him fear factor and his mega evolution changes his ability to thick fat, ridding of his weakness to fire, leaving only flying and physic types to worry about. How does this get any better with a grass type?

The best Generation 1 starter by a mile. The first two gyms it is super effective against. Squirtle is good against one while Charmander is good against none. What Venusaur has over the others is the over world. Both the caves and water sections are filled with rock and water types, making Venusaur great there and the elite four is filled with not only water types but again, rock types. Plus, he is only weak to two gym leaders with the rest having him resist the gym leaders.

Venusaur belongs at #1. Bulbasaur can't be compared to Venasaur, a Bulbasaurs purpose in life is to become a Venasaur. I can't believe Torterra beats Venasaur, it's ridiculous, Torterra's moves on Venusaur would be nothing to him. The poison/grass typing makes Venusaur resistant to grass type moves, and earth type moves. Torterra being ground/grass makes grass types effect Torterra normally, Venusaur's Frenzy Plant, Solar beam, Leaf storm, etc. Would destroy Torterra.

Well, Venusaur is the best starter out of the 3 for competitive games he was always at OU while his brothers Charizard and Blastoise been struggling at UU and RU. His mega evolution make him even more unstoppable because Fire and Ice are no longer super effective on him. In the anime he wrecked fire-type Pokemons and in the manga he defeated Charizard twice in 1 battle and Charizard couldn't even lay a finger on him. Venusaur also is the leader of all wild grass, bug and poison Pokemon in grasslands and forests. And Bulbasaur family is part of nature, they can plant and flourish plants and grow trees up. It's not even a legendary Pokemon and can do legendary stuf fs. l et that sink in.

I love love LOVE leafeon, and she was my very first grass type Pokemon! All it took was some light battling with an eevee, a Pokemon, and leveling up in the same place I got it! And giga drain, a move a leafeon can learn, is really good! I think that leafeon should be at least 1-3 on the list, but hey at least he made it on the list at all! Mine also learned ARIEL ACE, PEOPLE. This guy is also adorable in those little internet pics with glaceon. The only problem with leafeon is his shiny.

Leafeon is one of my favourite eeveelutions other than sylveon... Anyway it's stats are pretty amazing...its ability chlorophyll is so damn cool! And if it has leaf guard is also amazing. Leaf guard prevents the Pokemon to get any debuff like poison, sleep or burn... Stuff like that.. It is used after sunny day ( I m not so sure if it's sunny day) is used by a Pokemon then swapped to leafeon, nothing of the above sort will affect it... Pretty helpful. N chlorophyll is totally a totally different story chlorophyll increases Pokemon speed after bright sunshine.. Chlorophyll is hidden ability. Leafeon is my favorite grass type other than torterra which is so cool. It may be the best starter for a grass trainer.. in addition to that... It is so cute (notice it's obliviously cute nature) but I do think leafeon deserves a place in top 5. Should mythical Pokemon like celebi be counted?!

Leafeon is amazing. With a 110 attack stat combined with a few swords dances, this thing can sweep like a boss. As a plus, if its unable to hit a physical pokemon in one hit, it can tank as well with its startling base 130 defense. This thing only looks cute; but it's a beast inside.

I have a Leafeon on my Black 2 game and it is both awesome at its strength and speed! It's move set is awesome too, with each move being unique and powerful! It's power isn't the only thing that dominates, as there is its cute and cool looks! There's no way it would lose!

It can Baton Pass subs, sword dances, nasty plots. Stealth rock, thunder wave, perish song, it's got status moves mate. Need something to take burns, poison, etc.? Natural cure can do that. It can even use nasty plot itself and clean up teams. But defensively, it's mixed. You're great against most water, electric and ground types, but dark, flying, and especially bug are pretty common. Also as a side note, it's gosh darn cute.

Yes, Celebi is awesome. If you know how to train it, it has the power of a Mewtwo, and the additional cuteness of Mew. Number two (Bulbasaur) and number so-called one (toterra) are totally, totally lame. I bet you a Leaf Storm-Psychic Celebi could take down these weak pokemon in one hit! Celebi rules, and the other grass types except Roserade and Serperior are horrible.

I don't understand why this pokemon doesn't get the same recognition as Mew. What Mew is too Kanto, Celebi is too Johto. Also, Celebi is dual-type unlike Mew who is only psychic; whereas, Celebi is both Psychic/Grass. Underrated legendary pokemon. Base stats speaks for itself.

Well, for one Celebi has a base stat total of 600. With the addition of Psychic type, it can easily beat a Grass/Poison pokemon such as Bulbasaur. It also has an amazing move pool to help itself with its weaknesses! Oh. And it's cuter than a baby!

You have got to vote for Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur is the best choice for Leaf Green/Fire Red because it can easily defeat the first two gyms plus it has awesome stats. I tell you, if you pick Bulbasaur, you'll never regret it.

Bulbasur is really cute. I mean, a grass poison type?! You've got to be kidding me! It even has sleep powder and solar beam! Plus it can learn poison type moves (so long other grass type Pokemon). Overall, despite bulbasaur's redeyes, it still looks cute!

I have a Bulbasaur that I got when I first started Pokemon leaf green I loved it so much I didn't evole it. Now it is a level 100 and still a Bulbasaur! It has helped me out so much with its good defensive stats and great attacks. It definitely is my strongest Pokemon.

I love Bulbasuar I love Treecko, and Turtwig as well.
Bulbasaur is a great Pokemon to Ash, his episodes are more interesting that Charizard's and Squirtle's episodes.
Bulbasaur is loving caring Pokemon through his tough and serious exterior.

Roserade is an incredible grass type which I have used in more than one party. Not only can roserade poison an oppenents Pokemon and inflict them with status conditions but it has good attack moves too. Eg, mega drain, petal dance and magical leaf. Being half poison type, roserade can also learn powerful moves like sludge bomb, toxic and poison jab. With grass knot to eliminate heavier foes and solar beam with an attack of 120, roserade is a tough Pokemon to beat. No types are 4x effective on roserade and roserade is resistant to common and strong types like water and fighting. With a high special attack, roserade also looks elegant with its masquerade and bouquet origins. Finally, with a three stage evolution, you can raise adorable budew to angelic roselia to the unbeatable roserade. For YOUR team, roserade is a must have!

This thing has been put too low on this list. Base 125 sp. atk., base 105 sp. def., base 90 spd., can have poison point or natural cure (natural cure more useful since you can have toxic or toxic spikes for better poisoning). 2 words PETAL DANCE. Rather exclusive grass type move very powerful. Like thrash but grass and special. This is the best Pokemon that can learn it. Before Roserade, all the good grass type Pokemon were mostly less powerful forms of venusaur. The grass poison typing is good because it eliminates the grass weaknesses to bug and poison and only adds the weakness to psychic. Roserade can learn shadow ball and outspeeds virtually all psychic types (don't try your luck with alakazam). Roserade is essentially a stronger, faster venusaur with even higher sp. def. It can get sleep powder and extrasensory as egg moves. Basically, just stay away from flying types with this thing and you will survive just about everything because of that glorious 105 sp. def. If you want to ...more

Clearly it is one of the most beautiful Pokemon and definitely the most beautiful shiny. Has high special attack enough to cripple Pokemon weak to grass type. Wide range of moves ensure it isn't crippled by its weaknesses either. But to use it to its maximum potential (I.E. competitively) be sure to raise and evolve it from Roselia through breeding or otherwise than through training from a Budew.

Ok, so, why are Chikorita, Treecko, Bulbasaur and Turtwig in front of Roserade? (No, for real, why? It can kill any of these easily... )
With Psychic, Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb and Giga Drain, it can kill any team!
Its ability can be Natural Cure if it ever have a status problem, or Technician for powerful moves that aren't usually powerful...
It also looks pretty awesome.

A lot of people argue that in competitive, Mega Sceptile is the better choice becuase it doesn't have to use a move to get its sp. Attack high and that it's much faster, and that it can also run mixed. While this is true, Serperior has one advantage over Sceptile, and that is that it doesn't use a mega slot. That is why I think that Serperior should be right below Sceptile AT THE VERY LEAST.

Overall base is balanced with a little extra of speed, Serperior could leveled itself with Sceptile and Meganium (All three of them are my choices for starters by the way) I mean seriously, with Leaf Tornando to mess opponent's Accuracy while using Coil to buff yourself and either Leech Seed or Giga Drain for sapping HP. And yes all time grass favored move: Leaf Blade or Energy Ball.

Sure, it's not all powerful and that's the REASON why I like it as Grass starter. And seeing it not at the top 10 chart is kinda disappointing. Many people prefer either Celebi or Shaymin because of the features *cough' level of cuteness'cough* and the role they play in the movie but that just me.

One thing that bothers me though, WHY is that the Regal Pokemon isn't a cross with Poison type. I mean seriously, it's a SNAKE! None of us doesn't have to think twice that Serperior is a Grass/Poison type on first sight. But no, it's just Grass type Pokemon.

Sure, it got Coil and Gastric ...more

Serperior with contrary is the best. Leaf storm just ups his special attack EVERY time he uses it. His dream world ability is just the greatest thing ever. Give him toxic energy ball and something else and he's just a god. He's my favorite grass type and my all time favorite.

NOO! Last time I checked for the top ten starters, snivy was in 14th place, but now I have to watch serperior suffer the same! Its speed and defense are great, and though its attack isn't all that great, it can be kicked up there with growth and coil. Serperior is THE best Pokemon EVER.

Shaymin sky form is the best. He has serene grace which allows it to flinch a lot of Pokemon w/air slash. It increases the 30% flinch of air slash to 60%. He is also quite fast and can keep flinching Pokemon but he still have his disadvantages. Pokemon such as zubat, dragonite and lucario have an ability call inner focus. This ability prevents flinching. After all, I still think that shaymin sky form is the best grass type Pokemon.

Shaymin of course! All of Shaymin's stats are 100! Now. Who does like Shaymin. Shaymin is the best out of all the pokemon. Torterra total stats are 525. Shaymin's total stats are 600.

Shaymin's seed flare is so OP, you get it at level 100. I do feel as though sky form and land form transformation is a little confusing, though.

It's a literal hedgehog... and isn't it a legendary? You know what else is a legendary? Groudon and Kygore(sorry if I misspell) the creators of land and water. While this is just a random hedgehog with a flower and a leaf... don't hate me please

Yeah, coolest looking grass type besides Torterra! I still did not vote for Chesnaught, but he should be at #1 (besides Torterra). He is also one of the only grass fighting types out there.

One of my favorite. Powerhouse mofo it can learn rock moves, so the weakness for grass and fighting towards flying is basically gone.

I was feeling like Chesnaught was number 1,like I mean Come on. Greninja and Chesnaught are incredible! They make a great team.

Spiky Shield is awesome. I also am a fan of Needle Arm and Earthquake, along with Brick Break or Hammer Arm.

Sceptile can learn earthquake and dragon type moves. So it can beat most of the fire type Pokemon and can counter attack dragon types. Leaf blade is a badass move. I still wonder why it is blow chikorita.

I love Treecko because he/she's a lizard like Pokemon and I love Bearded Dragons, Geckos and other lizards.
Treecko can evolve into a ultra mega powerful Sceptile compelete with awesome attacks. Sceptile could be a powerhouse member on your team against the Elite Four.

Ultra adorable, great speed stats, learns moves quickly, come on people how can you hate on Treecko! He's a boss, and he deserves to be at number 1!

Sceptile is a OK grass-type. It can wall alright, but I use my Sceptile as a sweeper, Especially with a Sunny Day team.

I'm quite happy to see Victreebel in a top 10 spot. It has quite strong mixed attacking stats and is a nightmare to face under the sun. I always found it strange that Victreebel can't learn poison jab or gunk shot, Sludge Bomb is often more than enough to get the job done though.

One of the coolest looking grass type pokemon especially considering that he was created in gen 1 which had some pretty simplistic designs for their pokemon.

Why do people keep calling Victreebel he? IT can be a male and a female! Common mistake by all people they always call every animal a he...

Victreebel's design is just so cool! It is a giant flesh eating plant and it can be very powerful too!

Besides being my favorite pokemon he was one of my biggest contributors to getting my golden symbol of the battle tower. Tropius subsedder is very good and with the help of another pokemon that covers its two major weaknesses of fire and ice (milotic) it becomes very difficult to stop, besides that with the leech seed of the possibility for other pokemons to be able to configure.

Yes it has a bad typing, but think about how cool it is, it's a dinosaur, covered in plants, that can fly, and grows bananas from its glorious majestic neck. What better Pokemon could you have in real life?

Don't let tropius's stats fool you, it can run some pretty neat sets if used correctly. Most people are often caught off guard by its access to harvest and dragon dance. Tropius has quite a few weakness, so it needs to be played carefully. Tropius may seem weak to the average player, but in the hands of a master, it can be quite strong.

Two words. Banana Beard.
Ok. Guess I need more about old Banana beards.
To begin, both of the possible abilities for this guy are very useful in the sunlight, either doubling his speed or allowing him to regrow the berry he had before the fight. This makes him extremely useful in a sunny day team. Also, his ability to have solar beam also adds on to his solar-usage.
His typing also aids him slightly, as now he only takes damage from fire, rock, and 4XIce. While he does take regular electric rather than.5X with the grass typing, this would normally be higher with his flying typing.
If you haven't tried out Tropious yet, I highly suggest you try.
(His name is also a slight nod to the Troposphere of the atmosphere. ^_^)

I'm usually not a fan for grass type Pokemon. But I have to say, virizion is such a good Pokemon. And underrated.

Virizion so op knows leaf blade a level 60 virizion can destroy a blastoise level 100 so that is good and virizion is so good looking so that is goood!

As much as I love Snivy and Shaymin, I will have to go with Virizion because she is one of my all time favourites.

Come on he should be #1 I defeated the entire elite 4 with just him... and he is a LEGENDARY

I swear, despite Gogoat's slowness in the Gen 6 games (he/she'll also be returning in the Gen 9 games, Scarlet & Violet), it is a pretty tanky Pokemon that's basically an essential if you are big on Pokemon that can avoid multiple weaknesses. He/she's the Tauros of the Gen 6 games, damn straight. Great stats, as well. Apart from great use in battle, I feel like if you could ride other Pokemon in the games, then Gogoat would be it, Just imagine it. Your hands gripping the horns, the sweet smell of leather and grass and the sound of hooves clopping... that sounds like a pleasant experience. I wish I could ride my 3 Gogoats (screw what the anime has to say about pronounciation) in X&Y, Banjo, Trip-Trap and MMM (Michael Martin Murphey), but it turns out you can't do it... Shame, really.

Gogoat in my opinion is an underrated pokemon. It has good stats and a great move pool. It can learn several moves to counter its own weaknesses such as surf, earthquake and aerial ace. It also learns bulk up, horn leech, leech seed, milk drink, and brick break. It's only real weakness is that it is slow.

This dude is an absolute tank in the Gen 6 games. It can learn many, many powerful Grass-type moves that can easily wipe out opposing Pokemon. It's also a goat, a massive one, so large that people can ride on its back in Lumiose City in the Taxi feature. Yes, he/she goes slow and the music's repetitive, but I can just relax and play disco music on my Bluetooth speaker to clean up any repetitiveness, like you're listening to a radio station in a GTA game. One minor criticism: Alexa has a Gogoat she can ride around in the anime, yet has a saddle on her Gogoat. Many people can ride around on Gogoat without a saddle, you know! In other words, Gogoat is... the goat. He/she really needs more love.

It's stats are starter status, AND it can learn aerial ace, bulk up, horn leech, leaf blade, earthquake, leech seed, seed bomb, bulldoze, rock slide, and brick break? WHY IN THE WORLD is this thing NU?

Tangrowth is a beast in so many respects. With earthquake, it gets coverage of fire among other pesky types, and it has a killer defensive and special attacking stat. I personally think it looks cool too, but that is just me. After trying a lot of grass type Pokemon, I have to say Tangrowth was the best for me.

I love tangrowth. He looks cool. He plays like a tank. He can take heavy hits and deal them right back. And he has earthquake to knock out fire types. He is a beast, and there has never been anything quite like him.

Tangela may be pretty mediocre, but his evolution is a TANK. He has great stats (with an amazing base stat of 535), a great movepool, and I think that he's downright adorable (and I also think that I'm probably the only one with that opinion :P).

Although it ain't the best looking, Tangrowth is a mega WIN. Been playing Pokemon for years and Tangrowth is the best grass type I've even had in my party, aside from legendaries.

I liked this and I didn't even know it was a grass type so it' my 2nd favorite ultra beast.

Well, Oddish is weak, and Gloom isn't much better. They're fine statistically, but in Gen 3 all I could do was have them use Bullet Seed again and again and again. But Vileplume is a monster. In Ruby he swept all of Wallace's team just by using Petal Dance while running a Persim Berry. I didn't even need Magneton. Also Glacia's Walrein somehow defeated my Magneton with one Surf, so my Vileplume took over and easily killed Walrein. Vileplume got a lot better in Gen IV too with access to moves like Energy Ball.

Learns dazzling gleam to take on dragon, fighting and dark. Poison moves take care of fairies and grass. Then grass offense itself with moves like solar beam, giga drain and petal dance kills ground, water and rock pokemon! Plus it is adorable, I love the oddish gloom line

It isn't just an amazing Grass type, it's the best Pokemon of all time. If you never used an Oddish, get yourself on now! It's adorable, powerful, and great with status.

Vileplume is a boss! Also it's the first (I think... ) Pokémon with a branch evolution line. Although uncommon, Vileplume is a strong team player because he can dual-function as a special attacker and a tank!

While Sceptile is superior in terms of battle capabilities, Grovyle wins in terms of character. His Explorers of Sky incarnation is one of the deepest video game characters I have ever seen, and his quotes and exploits are still memorable even to this day. Not to mention that Grovyle is my favorite Pokemon because of this.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky Easily one of the best Pokemon Spinoff games and has one of the best characters made in the franchise, Grovyle. Also shout out to when Ash's Sceptie was a Grovyle, he was badass.

Grovyle looks awesome. I always choose Treeko as a starter, so I can evolve him into Grovyle. Grovyle always was a good battler. I always won with him!

Grovyle just looks awesome and I wouldn't even bother evolving it to a Sceptile as grovlye looks better. Leaf Blade, Toxic, Detect, Dig.

Yeah, I really think that Turtwig should be in the top three. He has some really good stats at the beginning too. And, also he envolves into Torterra in a bit and can own people. And also, he is pro period.

Turtwig is so strong from the start! It learns good moves like razor leaf from the start (I know you like that move. ) It is so cute too.

They're just so cute and I want to hug them. My favourite grass type by far!

Who doesn't love a turtle with a sapling on its head?

Very strong Pokemon, couldn't have beat it if I didn't have 3 dragon types and a metagross. This is a great Pokemon because my cousin chose snivy and I chose oshawott.

Snivy is the best grass type ever! (S)he is calm, cool, and classic. Perfect pokemon for me. (But Snivy is in the 34th rank...But it's okay. 34th rank is not bad. n_n)

Snivy is smart and yet powerful. There's no grass type poke better than it, I think.

SNIVY: the best grass type Pokemon... I rest my case... Your argument is invalid...

Decidueye is only number 53!? Why!? Not only its best looking non mega evolve pokemon in my opinion, but its in the underused tier making it the best non mega evolve grass type starter without an hidden ability. It have acess to the best ghost type physical move: spirit shackle and is possibly the most dangerous pokemon for Milotic and Vaporeon beside Mega Sceptile. don't underestimate Decidueye when you see it stats!

Weirdly, on the ghost type list, Decidueye is a rank lower. This pokemon is by far my MVP. He also is the only ghost type starter, so he is really cool. So cool, in fact, I say he should have been in the newer super smash bros game instead of incineroar. He ould definitely be badass.

Decidueye is pretty cool. Honestly, I'm a little bit salty towards him because everybody constantly says that he's better than Incineroar (I used Incineroar in my Pokémon Sun playthrough, absolute beast and carrier of my whole team, which is why I hate how this guy gets more attention). In truth, though, Decidueye is a more than decent Pokémon with a good design and nice stats. I mean, look at him. How could you look at that and not go "That's a badass Pokémon! "? Seriously though, awesome Pokémon and a pat on the back from me.

Nice starter with moves with STAB like: leaf Blade, Phantom Force, Spirit Shackle and Leaf Storm.

Don't think so mate? Shiftry sure as hell not this far down, it should at least make the top 10 it would smash all off them bar, celebi, venusaur and torterra so there's my opinion and if you ask me it looks sicker too!

Shiftry is simply amazing. Great states, awesome move set, mind blowing design and he is regarded as an Uber!

AWW... Yes shiftry is so awesome he's like a grass ninja, good combination too dark/grass mine is level 100 and tank's everything! Raised from a level 8 seedot!

Why is it so low in the list it is awesome it beat my friend two times just with bullet seed.
