Just so you know, Happa (はっぱ) means leaf in Japanese, and an early design version of Chikorita was called Happa!

Winner of the Day 7 Challenge; Most Adorable Pokemon: Chikorita!

Honestly, I think the Johto starters are the cutest starters! Even though I've never started with a Cydaquil before, haha. And I know why that is! It's cause if I did start with one, my rival would take Totodile, which is my most favorite pokemon, and I can't have him using and abusing one. IT WOULD JUST BREAK MY HEART.
