Ivysaur (Japanese: フシギソウ, HepburnFushigiso) is a Grass/Poison Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It evolves from Bulbasaur starting at level 16, and evolves into Venusaur starting at level 32.

Biology

Physiology

Ivysaur's appearance is very similar to that of its pre-evolved form, Bulbasaur. It still retains the turquoise skin and spots, along with its red eyes. Ivysaur's top fangs are now larger and are visible outside of the mouth. Also, its ears are now darkened to black in the center. Carrying the weight of the bud on its back makes Ivysaur's legs stronger. The most notable change is that the bulb is starting to bloom, with pink petals visible, and large leaves on the bloom bottom.

Characteristics

Its blossom on its back grows larger in the sunlight. As the blossom grows, Ivysaur loses the ability to stand on its hind legs. The blossom produces a pleasant smell when it is ready to bloom, it means Ivysaur is ready to evolve into Venusaur.

Etymology

'Ivysaur' is derived from 'ivy' and 'dinosaur'.

Origin

Ivysaur was confirmed to be based on frogs by Ken Sugimori in a Japanese interview, where he described the Bulbasaur line to be "a creature that is something like a frog."

Additionally, Ivysaur's large, rounded snout; wide mouth, wide-set eyes, blotch-patterned skin, & quadruped-like movements are vaguely similar to those of certain amphibians, such as the common toad. Unlike Bulbasaur, Ivysaur's "ears" do have hollows, indicating that they are, in fact, ears and not glands, as seen in many species of frogs and toads.

The bulb on its back now resembles the bud of a genus of parasitic flowering plants known as Rafflesia.
