Well Bulbasaur is a grass type Pokémon not a water type. Rattata is a Normal-type Pokémon and Pidgey is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon.
Because of wrong tagging of these Pokemon, Laureen Uy was stormed with several reactions on Facebook and Twitter by avid Pokemon fans.

From what I understand, she was interviewed on national telly in a popular weekend show. She said she's a Pokemon addict, and her favorite is Bulbasaur... a WATER TYPE POKEMON.
Laureen was asked by Jessica Soho (a journalist) what her favorite Pokemon is while looking at stuffed toys at a toy store in Japan. The celebrity fashion blogger answered Bulbasaur and added, 'Water siya, 'no? (It's Water) Water Pokemon,' referring to its 'type' or 'element.'
Her comment garnered tons of negative remarks on social media from hardcore Pokemon fans. Pinoy netizens clarified that Bulbasaur is not a Water type Pokemon, and instead is a Grass/Poison type. A snippet of the video interview became viral on Facebook and has now received over 750,000 views, as of writing.
UPDATE:She has now issued an apology.
