Appearances
In the Animé
Ash's Bulbasaur
Ash's Bulbasaur was first seen in the episode "Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village" as one of the Pokémon from the Hidden Village. At first is was very wary toward Ash but eventually it grew attached to him before asking him to battle. Ash used Pikachu and beat the Bulbasur and caught it. Unlike Ash's Squirtle and Charmander he caught in the following episodes, Bulbasaur was eventually sent to Professor Oak's Lab in "Bulbasaur.. The Ambassador!" where he acted as a peacekeeper if other Pokémon started fighting.
May's Bulbasaur
When Ash and Co were travelling in the Hoenn region, May caught a Bulbasaur in "Grass Hystaria" in which she had been seperated from the group. She kept the Pokémon throughout her Hoenn adventure entering it in Contests and competed with it in the Regional Grand Festival. Travelling back to Kanto with Ash she sent her Bulbasaur ro Prof. Oak so it could learn from Ash's Bulbasaur in "The Right Place and the Right Mime" whilst she was in the Battle Frontier. Somewhere after leaving Ash she took back her Bulbasaur and managed to evolve it into a Venusaur.
