{{a|Solar Power}} is an [[Ability]] later introduced in the [[Generation IV]] [[Pokémon games]] that {{p|Venusaur}} cannot have; however, the Japanese names are different, making the two unrelated. {{m|Mega Drain}} is a [[move]] in the Pokémon games that Venusaur could learn via [[TM21]] in [[Generation I]]. The card's English [[Pokédex]] entry comes from {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, whereas the Japanese entry comes from {{game|Red and Green|s}}.
