The following is a list of Grass-type Pokémon in Pokémon Sleep.

In the TCG

Main article:Grass (TCG)

Due to the decreased amount of types in the TCG, Grass generally adopts allBug-type Pokémon under its typing. It also adoptedPoison-type Pokémon prior to theDiamond & Pearl set, after which they were moved toPsychic and laterDarkness.

Similar to the games, Grass-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak toFire and resistWater. Grass-type Pokémon are strong againstFighting,Water, andDarkness Pokémon.Metal Pokémon resisted it until theEX Power Keepers expansion set, and then fromSword & Shield onward.

Trivia

• Generation V introduced the most Grass-type Pokémon of any generation, with 21 (including Rotom's Mow form), andGeneration VI introduced the fewest Grass-type Pokémon, with nine.
• Generation I introduced the most Grass-type moves of any generation, with 10, andGeneration II introduced the fewest Grass-type moves, with three.
• The Grass type is tied withRock in having the most weaknesses out of all types, with five.
• The Grass type is tied withBug as the most resisted type, being resisted by seven types.
• Grass-type moves are the most common double weakness, with 29 Pokémon species being doubly weak to Grass-type moves in at least one of their forms.
  • Grass-type moves are also the most common double resistance, with 109 Pokémon species doubly resisting Grass-type moves in at least one of their forms.
• The Grass type and/or Pokémon of the type have been referred to using the term "plant" instead on some occasions:
  • The naming of this type as the Grass type rather than the Plant type in Japanese may be due to the fact that the Japanese word for "plant" (Japanese: しょくぶつ) is five characters long, while the Pokédex screen inPokémon Red and Green only has room for a maximum of four characters for each of a Pokémon's types.
  • In the English Generation I games, theGym guide inCerulean Gym refers to Pokémon of the Grass type as "plant Pokémon". In the English versions ofPokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, he instead mentions "Grass-type Pokémon". In the Japanese versions of the Generation I games and FireRed and LeafGreen, he mentions the Grass type itself, calling it the "Plant type" (Japanese: しょくぶつタイプ).
  • Another reference to "plant Pokémon" (Japanese: しょくぶつポケモン) is made byProfessor Oak in the JapanesePokémon Red, Green, andBlue, and internationalPokémon Red and Blue, classifyingBulbasaur as such when theplayer is about to choose it as theirfirst partner Pokémon. This is also the case in the Japanese versions ofPokémon FireRed and LeafGreen; in contrast, he calls it the "grass Pokémon" in the English versions.
    • This same reference is also used in thefirst episode ofPokémon Origins.
  • In multiple languages, such as French and German, the Grass type is translated as the Plant type.
  • The Turkish dub ofPokémon the Series occasionally refers to the Grass type ("Çimen türü") as the "Plant type" ("Bitki türü").
• The Grass type has been paired with every other type at least once.
• The Grass type has the most Pokémon that evolve byEvolution stones, with a total of 12. It is also the type that can utilize the most stones, having at least one Pokémon that can evolve via theLeaf Stone,Sun Stone,Water Stone,Shiny Stone, andFire Stone.
• The Grass type is the only type to have more than oneHP-draining move, having five of them.
• Grass-type attacks are super effective against the three types that theFire type is weak to.
• InTree's a Crowd,Brock states that Grass-type Pokémon resistElectric-type moves due to being able to diffuse the electricity into trees and the ground. He also explains that if Grass types are in the air, they cannot diffuse the electricity from Electric attacks, thereby dealing normally effective damage.
