You remember the one, right? The one with the huge frilled neck? Yeah.

I base that on three things:
1: Smugleaf has those things by its neck.
2: Smugleaf is a two-legged reptile.
3: Every grass starter Pokemon so far is based on a dinosaur*.

*Well, Venusaur is based on a Triassic-period non-dinosaur reptile. Close enough.

I'd question that because it doesn't make sense for them to start off with a snake-type (inverted commas) if they didn't intend for it to end up with snake-like qualities.

If it's gonna go the way of a dilophosaur, why not just start off with another lizard? Why go so far stressing something as a 'Grass Snake' when it clearly has arms and legs?

Reading into the contra-logic of what we currently know about Tsutaja, I think you're jumping the gun calling dilophosaur as a final form.

I have my own theories about where Tsutaja is going in terms of its evolution... but I'm gonna keep them to myself.

tbh it would be MORE badass if it evolved into that frilly neck thing from Jurassic Park, better than just some big snake anyway
either that dinosaur or some form of Anaconda is my guess

You people should have more of an interest in mythology.

a proper dinosaur pokemon would be cool, i think all we have right now thats a little badass is Tyranitar and Tropius

I think this would be a pretty cool evolution for our Smugleaf.

Too bad it'll probably never happen. =[

Grass/Dragon YES!

^Well, that's pretty.

No dinosaur, please.

Probably not.

It looks like a real path, it needs to be an entirely new thing every stage else it's not a latest-gen starter.

I mean, just look at 3/4.

All of the grass starters are dinosaurs.

What kind of dinosaur is Sceptile?

I thought it was a fat-tailed skink.

Also, I think Tsutaja's evo line will feature more leaves and flowers, the 'lapels' becoming wings (as in the above image) is a good call though.

It's a Dilopho...saur...us

I retract my theory of Smugleaf's evolution!
