Well, I must say that this is an awesome picture

*stamps* APPROVED! Need more =D

I too wants to learn more...

Yet they STILL don't know where Pokemon eggs come from.

Makes you wonder about the other pokemons.

Plz making charizard:D

This is brilliant.

they should make more of this

Nice. I would love to see more of these.

When you think about it, eggs are pretty strange seeing how a lot of pokemon are mammals.

Platypus?

no thanks, i already ate.

Reminds me of Zoo Books. I could use more technical info...genus, phylum and what not, but this is an awesome idea!

Okay, if Bulbasaur hatch from eggs...

What are the seeds in their bulbs for? I think that maybe...that one seed we tend to see in female bulbasaurs...is some kind of leech seed that's fused into the animal...

When it creates a new bulbasaur egg it creates a new leech seed to attach it to the egg...ready to take control of another frog like pokemon...

I would say that the DNA of the plant and bulbasaur have merged through the years of evolution if this anatomy were to be taken as canon.
As for the seeds, they are used for things such as Leach Seed and Seed Bomb attacks

Side speculation

Bulabasaur's (or more accurately Venusaur's) flower appers to be based on the Rafflesia flower from our world. So does the apperance of Vileplume. I'm wondering if the aswer is that way back when an Oddish implanted itslef in the back of a protobulbasaur (which at that time might have been a normal type) and the sybyotic realtionsh was so beneficial to both parties tha they now are intertwined (in much the way some scientists think our mitocondria may have once been independent organsims)

Skitty on Wailord action.

wow, I hadn't read this

I almost want to send this to the artist, I think I might

Hmmmmm.....interesting, so the theory here is that the plant is a separate organism, (with the real possibility of it not being a pokemon..) Well, we have seen pokemon who naturally gain symbiotic parasites, starting with Slowbro from the first generation. Possibly, the mother either adds a seed onto the egg, or possibly even her ovaries are also infected with her parasite, thus any eggs have them attached starting from conception.

Speaking of genus, aren't egg groups actually species, since they can make fertile offspring?

More than a few pokemon belong to MULTIPLE egg groups however. The distinction is very murky. And then, some pokemon aren't even fertile at all.
