[[File:Saur Ivysaur.png|thumb|left|As an Ivysaur]] He evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}} in ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'' at the gates of [[Celadon City]], when he battled an attacking {{p|Primeape}}. {{adv|Green}}, distracting Red with fake applause for this evolution, sold Red a bunch of fake items that did nothing but hinder him. Red proceeded to give chase on Green to get his money back, Green used this opportunity to steal Red's two Badges. However, a chain of events unfolded in the [[Rocket Hideout]], that left Red (disguised as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}) and Green allied. Saur's Vine Whip was used to try to capture the {{p|Mew}} that appeared before them. After they managed to save Mew from being caught by the Rockets, Saur was accidentally under the temporary control of {{adv|Blue}} when Red and Blue's Poké Balls were swapped. Blue toughened it up much more while Red did little to strengthen Blue's Pokémon. In the process, Saur, [[Poli]], and Pika adopted Blue's harsh mannerisms, and for a while were more than ready to attack their Trainer after returning. | [[File:Saur Ivysaur.png|thumb|left|As an Ivysaur]] He evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}} in ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'' at the gates of [[Celadon City]], when he battled an attacking {{p|Primeape}}. {{adv|Green}}, distracting Red with fake applause for this evolution, sold Red a bunch of fake items that did nothing but hinder him.

After a long and exhausting battle in the [[Silph Co.]] against both [[Lt.

Surge]] and [[Sabrina]], he evolved again in ''[[PS033|The Winged Legends]]'', while he, [[Blue's Charizard]], and [[Blasty]] were battling [[Thu-Fi-Zer|the merged version]] of {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Articuno}}. After its evolution, Red told Saur to unleash a powerful {{m|SolarBeam}} that tipped the scales in the three starters' favor. In his newly evolved form, he aided in the capture of [[Mewtwo (Adventures)|Mewtwo]] which, was left in [[Blaine]]'s care after Red catches it in the [[Master Ball]]. Saur was the first Pokémon seen with Red by {{adv|Giovanni}} at the [[Viridian Gym]], but was unable to participate in the actual battle due to Giovanni's {{p|Dugtrio}} shattering his Poké Ball's opening mechanism. At the Pokémon League, he was the first Pokémon Red sent out against {{adv|Blue}}, and managed to use {{m|PoisonPowder}} on Blue's Charizard before it could attack. In the end, following [[Poli]] and [[Pika]], he was able to defeat the Charizard by using the Thunder Cloud created by his teammates in conjunction with his Vine Whip acting as a lightning rod. He was also used in the battle against [[Bruno]] and his {{p|Onix}}, but was then defeated when Bruno's fellow Kanto [[Elite Four]] members came and brainwashed him into attacking Saur, Snor, and [[Gyara]]. He was then seen a year later, shattering a boulder with a strong Vine Whip as Red was training for the position of [[Viridian Gym|Viridian]]'s Leader . Red rightfully won but abdicated the position in favor of {{adv|Blue}}. Saur would then go to see much usage in the final battle against the [[Masked Man]]. After the fight was over, he was taken to [[Mt. Silver]] to train with Gold, and doesn't appear again until the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}. | ||
In the [[Sevii Islands]], Saur learned the move exclusive to the Grass-type starter families, {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, after training on [[Kimberly]]'s Jump Path, Catch Path, and Battle Path courses. This resulted in him and Blue's Charizard learning the ultimate attacks. Afterwards, the two boys' inability to perfect their respective move's accuracy would come to haunt them in the battle against [[Sird]], [[Carr]], and [[Orm]]. When {{Adv|Deoxys}} appeared, Saur nearly died shielding Red from the fearsome Pokémon's {{m|Psycho Boost}} attack. He managed to still gather the strength to fight, however, and participated in the battle on [[Trainer Tower]] against Deoxys' clones (an ability Deoxys gained after being caught by Giovanni). Saur then agreed to be traded to Blue again to allow Red to fly on Charizard and defeat the evil leader. After Giovanni's defeat, Saur was traded back to its original owner, but the two soon found themselves petrified by Sird with the four other [[Pokédex Holder]]s and their Pokémon. It wasn't until {{adv|Emerald}} managed to complete his mission and make a wish upon {{p|Jirachi}} that he regained mobility (over two months later), upon which Saur, with his trusty Frenzy Plant attack, helped destroy [[Guile Hideout]]'s fake Kyogre. | In the [[Sevii Islands]], Saur learned the move exclusive to the Grass-type starter families, {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, after training on [[Kimberly]]'s Jump Path, Catch Path, and Battle Path courses.
