Venusaur

Venusaur (Japanese: フシギバナ Fushigibana) is a /-type Pokémon. It is the final form of Bulbasaur. Venusaur is the version mascot for the games Pokémon Green and Pokémon LeafGreen.

Physiology
Venusaur is a large dinosaur like Pokémon that is somewhat similar in appearance to its pre-evolved forms, Ivysaur and Bulbasaur. Its skin still retains a light turquoise color, but it no longer has the spots, and it appears more rough and scaly with bumps here and there. The former bulb on its back has now fully bloomed into a gigantic flower and its ears have lightened up as well.

Gender differences
Female Venusaur are slightly different because they have a seed on their back, which shows that it can give birth to a new Bulbasaur.

Evolution
Venusaur is the final stage of Bulbasaur and evolves from Ivysaur starting at level 32. Venusaur can further evolve into Mega Venusaur using its Venusaurite.

Game info
Venusaur first appeared in the original Generation I games as the final evolved form of the starter Pokémon Bulbasaur. As with other starter Pokémon and their evolved forms, Venusaur is not obtainable in the wild and must be obtained through trade or by evolving Ivysaur.
