In the animé

Bayleef is one of the Pokémon that Ash has used in his team. It evolved from Chikorita in episode #201 (Current events). Like its pre-evolved form, Bayleef feels a strong bond of affection towards its trainer, which it usually expresses by trying to climb all over him, a matter complicated by the dramatic increase in mass. One memorable moment was when Bayleef won a race involving Ash riding a skateboard with Bayleef piloting it, beating Gary's Arcanine. Ash used Bayleef in many battles in Johto, including a gym battle in which it beat a Poliwrath and a Machoke. Ash also used Bayleef in the Johto League, where it battled against Gary's Blastoise, but lost, and against Harrison's Houndoom, and won even though Houndoom has a type advantage. After Bayleef beat Houndoom however, it was defeated by Harrison's Blaziken. Bayleef is currently at Professor Oak's lab since Ash decided to make a fresh start when going to Hoenn, and therefore, left all of his pokemon, except Pikachu with Professor Oak.
