The '''Grass type''' (Japanese: '''くさタイプ''' ''Grass type''), also referred to as the '''Plant type''' (Japanese: '''しょくぶつタイプ''' ''Plant type'') in [[Generation I]], is one of the seventeen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Grass-type Pokémon are [[Erika]] of [[Celadon City]], [[Gardenia]] of [[Eterna City]], and [[Cilan]] of [[Striaton City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV]], where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Grass-type moves were special.
