Ash's Bayleef (Japanese: サトシのベイリーフ Satoshi's Bayleaf) was the second Pokémon that Ash Ketchum caught in the Johto region. Her voice actress in both Japanese and English is Mika Kanai.

History

Bayleef was introduced in The Chikorita Rescue as a Chikorita. Chikorita was especially stubborn, going so far as to fight against Ash's Charizard despite obvious overwhelming odds; she was injured in the process. Team Rocket tried to convince the stubborn Pokémon to join them, but Ash eventually won her confidence.

Chikorita developed what seemed to be a crush on Ash, constantly fighting for his attention and trying to get his approval.

In Current Events, Chikorita evolved into Bayleef to protect Ash from Team Rocket. However, it took a while for the amorous Pokémon to realize that she had grown so much - she continued to act as though she was still small enough to leap into Ash's arms for quite some time.

Bayleef's personality is stubborn, sometimes violent, and passionate. She easily gets jealous of the attention Ash's other Pokémon receive - especially Pikachu. Some of her more extreme personality traits seemed to have mellowed with evolution, however.

Trivia

  • Bayleef is confirmed to be a female. In Chikorita's Big Upset, the local Nurse Joy refers to it as a she.
  • Chikorita was the only Pokémon that Ash owned that evolved during the Johto saga. Despite this, he also had another evolved Pokémon: Noctowl.
  • Chikorita took as many episodes to evolve as another Pokémon that had a crush on Ash: Aipom. They were both Generation II Pokémon before their evolution as well, and their Japanese names are both very similar to their English names. Both Pokémon also use their Japanese voices in the dub.
