===Main series===
[[File:Ash Bulbasaur.png|thumb|250px|Bulbasaur in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Ash's Bulbasaur]]=====
{{Ash}}'s Bulbasaur debuted in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]'' as one of the Pokémon in the [[Hidden Village]], thus also marking the species' physical debut. Though initially wary of Ash, the two eventually warmed up to one another, and Bulbasaur challenged him to a {{pkmn|battle}}. Using {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash won the battle, and Bulbasaur was {{pkmn2|caught}}. Unlike {{AP|Charmander}} and {{AP|Squirtle}}, which were caught in the two episodes following that of Bulbasaur, Bulbasaur remained in Ash's [[party]] for most of his {{pkmn|journey}} through [[Johto]] until ''[[EP225|Bulbasaur... the Ambassador!]]'', when Ash sent him to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]] to work as an ambassador between otherwise argumentative groups of Pokémon.
=====[[May's Bulbasaur]]=====
Much later on, while Ash was traveling in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]], {{an|May}} caught her own Bulbasaur after being separated from the group in ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria!]]''. She remained with her throughout the rest of her journey in Hoenn, helping her to win the {{ci|Purika}} {{pkmn|Contest}} and place Top 8 in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival|regional]] [[Grand Festival]]. When she traveled to [[Kanto]] to continue her journey with Ash in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', May, too, left her Bulbasaur at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] to learn from Ash's while she, Ash, [[Max]], and {{an|Brock}} traveled throughout the Kanto region. May retrieved her during her travels in [[Johto]], where she evolved all the way into a {{p|Venusaur}}.
=====[[Shauna's Bulbasaur]]=====
{{an|Shauna}}'s first partner Pokémon is a Bulbasaur she received from [[Professor Sycamore]]. It first appeared in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'', and it was revealed to have evolved into Ivysaur by ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]''
