Description

Bulbasaur (Japanese: フシギダネ Fushigidane, German: Bisasam, French: Bulbizarre, Korean: 이상해씨 Isanghaessi) is a Grass/Poison-type Pokémon, listed in the National Pokédex as #001. Along with Charmander and Squirtle, it is one of three starter Pokémon you can receive at the beginning of Pokémon Red, Pokémon Green, Pokémon Blue, Pokémon FireRed, and Pokémon LeafGreen.

Bulbasaur comes with the Ability Overgrow, which increases the power of Grass-type attacks by 50% once the Pokémon has less than one-third of its maximum HP.

Bulbasaur evolves via level, into Ivysaur starting at Level 16, then into Venusaur starting at Level 32.
