The anime is partially the main reason why I put Bulbasuar as my least favorite starter. (But he's still awesome though.) He just didn't show much personality here for me compared to Charmander where he had to live most of miserable life at his stage raised by a low life like Damian and Squirtle had the Squirtle Squad on his side that had him show a somewhat show-off/slick personality side to him that was very likeable.
Bulbasaur does gets his time in the sun later on in one of the later episodes of Season 1 but I'll go into discussion about it later.
Great write-ups so far I have seen I say.
