Not very specific isn't it, Chespin is in fact the first grass type starte to not be based on a reptile [[User:05308|<font color="blue">Diamond</font>]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|<font color="yellow">Lanturn</font>]] [[User talk:05308|<font color="red">CodeName: 05308</font>]] 12:42, 22 January 2013 (UTC) | Not very specific isn't it, Chespin is in fact the first grass type starte to not be based on a reptile [[User:05308|<font color="blue">Diamond</font>]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|<font color="yellow">Lanturn</font>]] [[User talk:05308|<font color="red">CodeName: 05308</font>]] 12:42, 22 January 2013 (UTC) | ||
:The answer/reasoning is at the top of the talk page. Bulbasaur alone makes it difficult to positively conclude they are all, in fact, reptilian, so it's safer to assume "it is a mammal," instead of assuming "it isn't a reptile."

== Possible addition to name origin... == | |||
Espinas is the spanish word for "thorns" and could be part of the name origin for Chespin. | |||
Also, another possibility, though a more unlikely one, is that the "ches" from chespin also comes from Chevalier, the French word for knight. However, I wouldn't put it on there unless it's confirmed that he is based off of a knight. |
