Name an un-evolved Generation 1 or Generation 2 Pokémon character that is of "poison" type (at least partially). Giving the evolved version will count, but takes the un-evolved version off the table. (Further clarification: the source for this list is Pokémon Go, so if a Pokémon gained the poison type in a later generation, it will count for the purposes of this question.) |
