Sunflora was originally going to be a stand-alone Pokemon, and Grass/Psychic. They eventually decided to give it a prevolution, make it stay purely Grass-type, and let it walk around. Since Sunflora ended up fairly lame anyway, I can't say they did the right thing.
Of course, as I ranted about in the past, inventing a Light type would have fit like a glove on Sunee. Or retroactively giving it Grass/Fairy would have been an attempt. ah well, it was not to be.
Somehow, I like this version more, though.
Overall: 6/10
It's got that whole "always burrowed in the ground" gimmick like Dugtrio. That's probably why it seems more interesting even though it's literally just Sunflora otherwise.
