Fucker doesn't get a grass move until WAY too late to matter and long before then, you can just catch a Bellsprout in the Tower. I know they wanted to keep the idea of "easy, medium, hard" with the starters, but making grass the "hard" in this game was a mistake, especially when it remains practically useless for the entire game and only comes into anything for the Elite Four as a status machine that is practically impossible to kill because of Mega Drain and Synthesis.
