Umbreon is not obtainable in FireRed and LeafGreen due to lack of a time system, which sorta sucks since the Eevee line is really cool.
But at least you can get one by trading from Ruby, Sapphire or Emerald.
Anyway, here's Umbreon.

# Vaporeon is tied with Umbreon and Leafeon for tallest Eevee evolution.

* It is also the heaviest Eevee evolution.
* Both of these facts make it the largest Eeveelution.

# Vaporeon has the highest HP base stat of the Eeveelutions.
# Vaporeon is the only Water-type that appears in field section of Pal Park.
# In Generation I, Vaporeon had a notably different design with all black ears, fins on each leg, and a fin running down the entire length of its back. All of these details were removed in Generation II. Notably, these details weren't present in its original R/G artwork.
# Despite being described as the "Bubble Jet Pokémon", Vaporeon can not learn Bubble. It can, however, utilize TM11 (BubbleBeam) in Generation I.
# Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another

My second fav. of the Eeveelutions <3

And now, brought to you by the letter W, we have...
Wartortle!
Well, uh, Bulbapedia only had this in Wartortle's trivia section:
"Even though Wartortle's ears are depicted lighter than its face in the official Sugimori stock art and most of its game sprites, the official promotional pictures usually have the ears the same color as its face. "
So, uh, that's it, I guess.

Whoa, some people keep forgetting to read the only rule. Nice going, guys.
Z is for: Zapdos!
(all this is stolen from Bulbapedia)
* Of all legendary Pokémon with fixed in-game locations, Zapdos can be obtained with the fewest number of badges: 3. In the Generation I games and their remakes, one can catch Zapdos with only the Boulder Badge, Cascade Badge, and Soul Badge.
* In Generation I, Zapdos was the only dual-type Electric Pokémon, as Magnemite and Magneton did not gain a secondary type until Steel was introduced in Generation II.
* Zapdos shares the same species name with Elekid and Electabuzz. They are all known as Electric Pokémon.
* Zapdos and Jolteon have almost the same Japanese name, a final s being the only difference.
* Zapdos and the Chinchou evolution family (without Volt Absorb) are the only Electric-type Pokémon that receive neutral damage from Electric-type moves.
* Zapdos is the only one of the legendary birds to not have a double weakness to Rock.
* It is so far the only dual-type Electric/Flying Pokémon.
* Zapdos shares its cry with 'M.
* Zapdos is the only one of the legendary birds to never be seen on its feet in a sprite: it is always in the air.
* In Generation II, Zapdos was given an additional toe pointing forward on each foot giving it three. However, Pokémon Stadium 2 shares the same 3-D model for Zapdos as its Generation I 3-D games, Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Snap, so in that game, it still only has two.

A is for Abomasnow
Trivia from Bulbapedia:
* Alongside its pre-evolution, Snover, as well as Exeggcute, Exeggutor, and Celebi, Abomasnow has the most weaknesses in the game, with 7 types super-effective against it.
* Abomasnow is the first Pokémon in alphabetical order, a title previously held by Abra.
* Abomasnow and Ludicolo, along with their pre-evolutions, are the only Grass-type Pokémon not weak to Ice-type moves, due to their secondary types.
* Out of all the Grass-type Pokémon, Snover and Abomasnow are the only two that cannot learn Sunny Day, possibly due to it being part Ice-type.
* Abomasnow is the only Pokémon so far with a base stat total of 494.

B is for... Blastoise!
* Blastoise, like Ho-Oh, Dialga, and Palkia, shares the first letter of its name with the game it is the mascot of: Blue.
* Blastoise shares the same species name with Kabuto and Kabutops. They are all known as the Shellfish Pokémon.
* Blastoise has the highest base Special Defense of all fully evolved starter Pokémon.
* In Pokémon Stadium 2, there is a trainer in the eighth battle of Poké Cup Ultra Ball R-2 who has a Blastoise with both Haze and Mirror Coat. However, it is impossible to breed both of these moves on the same Blastoise until Generation III.
* Blastoise is the only fully evolved form of a Kanto starter that does not have a secondary type.

And now, brought to you by the letter E, is:
Exeggutor!
* Exeggutor is one of the five Pokémon with seven weaknesses, the others being its pre-evolution, Snover and Abomasnow, and the legendary Celebi.
* While Melvin's Exeggutor waves goodbye to Ash and his friends at the end of The March of the Exeggutor Squad, additional heads can be seen in the back; this has, to date, appeared in no other media.
* Two of Ash's Pokémon in the anime have evolved after fighting and defeating Exeggutor. Ash's Charmander evolved into Charmeleon after defeating several Exeggutor, with some help from Melvin's fire power. Later on, Ash's Krabby evolved into Kingler after defeating Mandi's Exeggutor in the first round of the Indigo Plateau Conference.
* Exeggutor and Roserade are tied for the highest Special Attack stat of all Grass-type Pokémon.
* Exeggutor is Tsunekaz Ishihara's favorite Pokémon. He used it all throughout the debugging and testing of Pokémon Red and Green.
* Oddly, Exeggutor's Gold sprite is the same as its Yellow sprite, only different colors.
* Despite its artwork depicting it sitting down, only its Silver sprite shows it sitting down.

(as usual, both the picture and the facts are taken from Bulbapedia)

That was not the letter F.
For F, we'll have...
Feraligatr, my favorite Johto starter! (final form, anyways... although I still like Totodile best)
* Feraligatr is the tallest final form of a starter Pokémon, at 7 feet and 7 inches (2.3 meters).
o Feraligatr is also the starter that reaches its final form the earliest, doing so at level 30. Coincidentally, Totodile evolves into its secondary form, Croconaw, at level 18, the latest of any starter Pokémon, tied with Turtwig into Grotle.
+ Feraligatr is also the heaviest fully evolved Water-type starter.
* The lack of a vowel between the T and R in Feraligatr is due to the ten character limit on Pokémon names, which also affects Victreebel.
* Feraligatr is the only Pokémon to have more than four syllables in its name, with five.
* Feraligatr shares the same base stats with Blastoise, just in a different order.

G is for Giratina! Trivia from bulbapedia
* Giratina is the only member of its trio that does not have the first letter of the game it is mascot to match the first letter of its name.
* Giratina is the only dual-type Pokémon that has weaknesses to both of its own types, as well as the only Ghost-type legendary Pokémon.
* No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Giratina.
* Giratina has the highest HP stat of all legendary Pokémon, however, it is tied with non-legendaries Slaking and Drifblim and beaten by Snorlax, Wailord, Wobbuffet, Chansey, and Blissey, all non-legendary.
* Giratina is one of very few non-Flying-type Pokémon that is able to learn Fly. The others are: Vibrava, Flygon, Latios, and Latias (all four of which have the ability Levitate), Mew, Smeargle, and Arceus (all three of which can learn all HM moves). It is the only one who does not permanently keep Levitate. Additionally, before the revelation of its Origin Forme, it was unique in learning Fly but not having legitimate access to Levitate at all.
* It is one of eight Pokémon which can change forms, the other seven being Castform, Deoxys, Cherrim, Burmy, Rotom, Shaymin, and Arceus. Giratina's Origin Forme is only available in Pokémon Platinum and later games.
o It is the only member of its trio with the ability to change forms.
o This makes it the only version mascot that has different forms.
* In Diamond and Pearl, Giratina is met at level 70, while Dialga or Palkia are met at level 47, but in Platinum, Giratina is met at level 47, while Dialga and Palkia are met at level 70.
* Among all members of the Dragon trio, Giratina is the only one not having Special Attack as its highest stat, having HP as its highest stat.
* Giratina, as of Platinum, is the only Pokémon to come out from above instead of from the left of the screen during the start of the battle.
* When Giratina first appears in battle in the Distortion World, it does not have a shadow (as there is no "ground" on the other side of the field), however, after using Shadow Force or breaking out from a Poké Ball, it will have one.
* The first shown sprite of its Origin Forme was not used in Platinum.
* Giratina is the only one of the dragon trio with a catch rate of 3.
o In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, Giratina is the only one of the dragon trio without a 100% recruit rate.
* In its Origin Forme, Giratina has the highest Attack stat of all Ghost-type Pokémon.
* Giratina's Altered Forme is the second heaviest of all Pokémon, surpassed only by Groudon; however, its Origin Forme is the fourth heaviest.
* Giratina is the only Pokémon in a legendary trio that is separated from the other members of its group in the Pokédex; Heatran and Regigigas separate Giratina from Dialga and Palkia.
* Giratina is the only Pokémon of its trio whose signature move is not of the Dragon-type.
o It is also the only Pokémon of its trio whose signature move is in the Physical category.
* Giratina is the only one of its trio without a jewel located somewhere on its body.
o Therefore, it cannot learn Power Gem, unlike the other members of its trio.
* Giratina is considered to be the forgotten one among itself, Dialga and Palkia, even though all three were created by Arceus.
* Giratina is the only Pokémon that is able to successfully use the Griseous Orb; a Ditto that transforms into an Origin Forme Giratina during battle will immediately change back into Altered Forme (unless in battle with it in the Distortion World).
* In Platinum, if Giratina is knocked out in the Distortion World, it can be battled again in Turnback Cave (and thus in Altered Forme).
o If it is defeated a second time in the Turnback Cave battle, it will reappear in one week for another battle. It shares this trait with Heatran. However, the items rewarded for completing Turnback Cave's maze will be unavailable during this time.
* In interviews Junichi Masuda and Takeshi Kawachimaru did for G4, it was said that Giratina and its Distortion World were created to be personifications of antimatter; this is bluntly stated and confirmed in HeartGold and SoulSilver by Cynthia.
* Giratina is the only Pokémon that appears last in a regional Pokédex listing that is not an event-exclusive Pokémon.
* Giratina's footprint appears in Platinum only if the Altered Forme is encountered before the Origin Forme is; this can only occur by trading a Giratina in from another game. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, regardless of which Forme of Giratina is encountered first, its Pokédex page will feature the footprint of Altered Forme.
* Giratina's roar in the movie is Mothra's death cry roar.
* While Giratina is preparing to use its signature move Shadow Force, the player will be unable to throw a Poké Ball at it - attempting to do so will trigger a message that the player cannot throw a ball at something they cannot see.
* It is the only legendary Pokémon available in all five of the Generation IV main series games without trading.
thats a lot of trivia.

G is for Giratina! Trivia from bulbapedia
* Giratina is the only member of its trio that does not have the first letter of the game it is mascot to match the first letter of its name.
* Giratina is the only dual-type Pokémon that has weaknesses to both of its own types, as well as the only Ghost-type legendary Pokémon.
* No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Giratina.
* Giratina has the highest HP stat of all legendary Pokémon, however, it is tied with non-legendaries Slaking and Drifblim and beaten by Snorlax, Wailord, Wobbuffet, Chansey, and Blissey, all non-legendary.
* Giratina is one of very few non-Flying-type Pokémon that is able to learn Fly. The others are: Vibrava, Flygon, Latios, and Latias (all four of which have the ability Levitate), Mew, Smeargle, and Arceus (all three of which can learn all HM moves). It is the only one who does not permanently keep Levitate. Additionally, before the revelation of its Origin Forme, it was unique in learning Fly but not having legitimate access to Levitate at all.
* It is one of eight Pokémon which can change forms, the other seven being Castform, Deoxys, Cherrim, Burmy, Rotom, Shaymin, and Arceus. Giratina's Origin Forme is only available in Pokémon Platinum and later games.
o It is the only member of its trio with the ability to change forms.
o This makes it the only version mascot that has different forms.
* In Diamond and Pearl, Giratina is met at level 70, while Dialga or Palkia are met at level 47, but in Platinum, Giratina is met at level 47, while Dialga and Palkia are met at level 70.
* Among all members of the Dragon trio, Giratina is the only one not having Special Attack as its highest stat, having HP as its highest stat.
* Giratina, as of Platinum, is the only Pokémon to come out from above instead of from the left of the screen during the start of the battle.
* When Giratina first appears in battle in the Distortion World, it does not have a shadow (as there is no "ground" on the other side of the field), however, after using Shadow Force or breaking out from a Poké Ball, it will have one.
* The first shown sprite of its Origin Forme was not used in Platinum.
* Giratina is the only one of the dragon trio with a catch rate of 3.
o In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, Giratina is the only one of the dragon trio without a 100% recruit rate.
* In its Origin Forme, Giratina has the highest Attack stat of all Ghost-type Pokémon.

And that brings us to H (I'm repeating letters, I need to slow down some):
Hippowdon!
* Hippopotas and Hippowdon are currently the only Pokémon whose male and female sprites show completely different colors.
* Hippowdon's species is Heavyweight Pokémon; however, it is only the the 16th heaviest Pokémon currently known.
* In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, both Hippowdon and Hippopotas have the same recruit rate, something rarely found with Pokémon of the same evolutionary line.
(trivia's a bit underwhelming, dont'cha think?)

Take a normal type, like a Jigglypuff, against a ghostly Gengar the battle's real tough!
And Thunderbolt's a great electric attack
Till you get ground out by a Marowak!
What kind of Pokemon are you? How do you do the things you do?
(lol, couldn't resist)
So, yeah, Jigglypuff's next.
* The Jigglypuff in the Smash Bros. series and Rough, Tough Jigglypuff have green eyes like a shiny Jigglypuff.
* Jigglypuff's evolutionary family shares the same species name with Qwilfish and Drifloon. They are all known as Balloon Pokémon.
* Jigglypuff's Crystal still sprite is different from that of Gold and Silver, making it one of few Pokémon to have three distinctly different sprites in Generation II.
* Jigglypuff in the 3D games, anime and the official promotional pictures usually has green eyes and tea rose pink fur, resembling more closely the shiny version than the normal one.
(yet again, the trivia's underwhelming)
