What is the first pokemon you think of as the prime example of each type?

For example, thinking of Gastly or Gengar for ghost despite them being half poison.
Bonus: have any of the pokemon you think of per type changed over time?

Grass - Bulbasaur(sometimes Oddish)
Water - Squirtle(sometimes Goldeen)
Fire - Charmander
Electric - Pikachu
Psychic - Alakazam
Fighting - Machamp
Rock - Geodude
Ground - Diglett
Ice - Articuno
Bug - Caterpie
Flying - Pidgey
Dragon - Dragonite
Ghost - Gastly
Poison - Grimer and Koffing as a duo
Normal - Very tricky. There's no "the one", it varies between Rattata, Meowth, Jigglypuff, Eevee, Ditto, Snorlax, Chansey and Tauros.

Dark - Murkrow
Steel - Steelix
Fairy - Sylveon

For the record they are not necessarily the pokemon I think best embody their type.
