On a related note, we don't technically have confirmation that the starters are Fire/Water/Grass. We're basing it on assumptions because we see them using those type attacks and they're coloured to suit (and because the "Water" type is a frog), but strictly speaking, it hasn't yet been confirmed. Actually, they're not even confirmed to be the starters - it's all assumption at this point.
If they are, indeed, the starters, and the standard type set, then there's still some interesting observations.
This is the first grass starter that isn't a reptile or amphibian, and the first grass starter that doesn't appear to be made of grass (it's the first one that isn't predominantly green, in fact). The fire starter is the first one to not really have any significant amount of red, unless you count Cyndaquil without its fire quills. The water starter is the first one that is based on an animal that isn't completely associated with water (many frogs live on land, and only reproduce in water).
They do seem to be making an effort to mix things up, at least a LITTLE bit.
