Bellsprout is a plant-based Pokémon with a stem-like brown body. This stem is long, thin and very flexible, making it capable of swerving rapidly to avoid many attacks or moving with blinding speed to capture prey. Its roots resemble feet, and it uses them as such. It will plant these feet in the ground to replenish water, but it is unable to flee while it is rooted. It has one green leaf on each side of its body. Its yellow head is bell-shaped and has what appear to be pink lips at the end. Bellsprout prefers hot and humid places, living in forests.
Another major appearance was in A Bout With Sprout. A boy called Zackie from Earl Dervish's Pokémon academy wanted to have Ash's Pikachu very badly. In his efforts to catch it, he captured a Bellsprout instead. This Bellsprout later saved the day when Team Rocket was causing trouble at the Sprout Tower.
A very old Bellsprout appeared in PK13. It is the elder of the Summer Festival, and was the one who tells Pikachu and the others about an Aggron living on a deserted island, where Skarmory took Azumarill.
Two Bellsprout appeared in the wild in The Grass Route while two appeared in the same episode belonging to two different Trainers participating in the Grass Tournament.
Bellsprout appeared in Zoroark: Master of Illusions as a few of the many local Pokémon who lives in Crown City. A Bellsprout worked with several other Pokémon in surrounding Zorua at the park to attack him, angry at Zorua for what Zoroark did to the city. Before a fight broke out, Bellsprout, along with the other Pokémon, were calmed by Celebi.
In A Hollow Victreebel a hidden colony of Bellsprout line members in the Safari Zone captured Red for their evolution ritual. With the help of Pidgebot 1 that was assigned to him, and a few good items he carried around, the Bellsprout that were about to eat him for their evolution were distracted, and he was able to flee. By morning Red had captured multiple Safari Zone Pokémon including several Bellsprout.
A sextet of Bellsprout is seen in Bellsprout Rout during Gold's visit to Sprout Tower. Gold is attacked by the monks and their Bellsprout in an attempt to convince him to join their group. The excellent teamwork of the Bellsprout manages to make short work of Gold's Aipom, only to lose to Gold's Cyndaquil when it incinerates them from below. A picture and two statues of Bellsprout appeared by the side of the Sprout Tower in Bellsprout Rout.
Pokémon Pinball: A Bellsprout appears on the Red Table, when the pinball can be shot into the Bellsprout, Catch'em Mode is activated allowing for the capture of a Pokémon.
A Bellsprout's thin and flexible body lets it bend and sway to avoid any attack, however strong it may be. From its mouth, it leaks a fluid that melts even iron.
