'''Venusaur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フシギバナ''' ''Fushigibana'') is a {{2t|Grass|Poison}}-type Pokémon.
 
Venusaur comes with the [[Abilities|Ability]] {{A|Overgrow}}, which increases the power of Grass-type attacks by 50% once the Pokémon has less than one-third of its maximum HP.
 
Venusaur evolves from {{p|Ivysaur}} starting at Level 32.
 
Venusaur is the version mascot of both [[Pokémon Green]] and [[Pokémon LeafGreen]], appearing on the boxart of both.
 
=Biology=
==Physiology==
Venusaur is considerably larger and heavier than both of its pre-evolution cousins, and as such it moves slower than the two. However, its special attacks are faster than ever, as the plant on its back has now reached its final stage and flowered. It is also able to charge at its enemies to gain speed, then perform moves such as {{M|Skull Bash}} and {{M|Body Slam}} with a force more powerful than a speeding armored truck. It also has an incredible leap for such a heavy Pokémon, and its able to dodge attacks and jump across close rock formations. Its only downside is that its weight causes a small quake as it lands, which can break the platform its trying to land on, or cause it to get buried in mud or sand.
===Gender differences===
The female has a "seed" protruding from its flower; possibly representing a pregnant Venusaur.
 
===Special abilities===
As with its pre-evolutions, most of Venusaur's attacks are involved with the plant on its back; but the attacks are clearly stronger than those from Bulbasaur and Ivysaur.  Venusaur is also capable of causing {{M|Earthquake}}s.  Since Venusaur is a fully evolved Pokémon (and the final evolution of a Grass-typed [[Starter Pokémon]] for that matter), it can use {{M|Hyper Beam}}, {{m|Giga Impact}} and {{m|Frenzy Plant}}.
 
==Behavior==
Rarely in the wild, Venusaur usually lead the evolution rituals every year, away from human eyes.  A trainer needs to be well-experienced when around Venusaur.
 
They still have a loyalty streak, though this isn't much seen, since most Venusaur act as the trainer's bodyguard and is rarely abandoned, if ever. For some unknown reason, possibly of age, Venusaur are very solitary, even after being caught.
 
==Habitat==
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
Venusaur's natural habitat seems to consist of plains with access to large amounts of sunshine and fresh water.
 
==Diet==
Venusaur gets most, if not all, of its energy from the flower on its back. The flower engages in photosynthesis, which provides energy for the Venusaur. Due to this, it prefers sunny areas. It is unknown if Venusaur have to eat at all.
 
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''
 
=In the anime=
[[Image:VenusaurAnime.jpg|frame|left|Venusaur in the anime]]A giant robot Venusaur was at the amusement park in [[EP017|''Island of the Giant Pokémon]].
 
The first time a real Venusaur made an appearance was in ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]''.  It was leading an evolution ceremony.
 
In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', a Venusaur named "Brute Root" was captured and cloned by [[Mewtwo (anime)|Mewtwo]].
 
[[Drake (Orange League)|Drake]] of the [[Orange Islands]] used a Venusaur in his battle against [[Ash]] in ''[[EP112|Enter The Dragonite]]''.
 
An artist has a Venusaur as a long-time friend, which he used to battle Team Rocket in ''[[EP185|The Light Fantastic]]''.
 
A Venusaur was seen in a [[Pokémon Center]] in ''[[EP187|Moving Pictures]]''.
 
When [[Team Rocket]] was working at a Pokémon Park in ''[[EP248|One Trick Phony]]'', they used a Venusaur in a battle against [[Ash's Cyndaquil]] as part of an elaborate plan to capture [[Ash's Pikachu]].
 
In ''[[AG073|Grass Hysteria]]'' May got lost in the [[Forbidden Forest]], which was ruled by a Venusaur.
 
As seen in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'', one of the Pokémon [[Factory Head Noland|Noland]] offers for challengers to battle is a Venusaur. However, Ash instead chose to battle {{p|Articuno}}.
 
Jeremy used a Venusaur that knew {{m|Frenzy Plant}} in the second half of the Silver Town [[Pokémon Contest]] in ''[[AG151|Weekend Warrior]]''.  Jeremy's Venusaur came very close to defeating [[May's Blaziken|May's Combusken]], but the Young Fowl Pokémon came through and pulled off a come-from-behind victory.
 
[[Palace Maven Spenser|Spenser]]'s Venusaur debuted in ''[[AG163|Cutting the Ties that Bind]]''.  Spencer had Venusuar use {{m|Sweet Scent}} to drive away the angry {{p|Beedrill}}.  Venusaur was the second Pokémon that the Palace Maven used in his battle with Ash in ''[[AG164|Ka Boom with a View]]''. The Seed Pokémon defeated [[Ash's Heracross]] and lost to [[Ash's Swellow]].
 
=In the manga=
In [[Pokémon Special]], one of {{Special|Red}}'s main Pokémon is a Venusaur, which is the evolved form of the {{p|Bulbasaur}} he received from [[Professor Oak]].
 
[[Shigeru (Zensho)|Shigeru]] somehow acquired a Venusaur in [[Pokémon Zensho]].
 
=In the TCG=
{{main|Venusaur (TCG)}}
 
=Other appearances=
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
Venusaur is one of the Pokémon that can appear from the gate on the rooftop of [[Silph Co.]] in the [[Saffron City]] stage. Venusaur will ocassionally fire [[Razor Leaf|Razor Leaves]] at any character in front of it.
 
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When Venusaur is released from a [[Poké Ball]], it causes an {{m|Earthquake}}, similar to Donkey Kong's Down + B attack.  Any player caught in this will be sent flying.
 
Venusaur is also a Pokéfloat.  The front half will push itself onto the screen first and play will then begin to move to the right after {{p|Snorlax}} leaves the screen.
 
====Trophy information====
Evolving from Ivysaur, this deceptively toxic Pokémon has a huge flower on its back that emits a cloying fragrance: the scent lulls its enemies into a state of calmness.  Venusaur's flower synthesizes sunshine into pure energy for its solarbeam move.  Think of Grass-type Pokémon, and Venusaur comes first.

=Trivia=
*For unexplained reasons, Venusaur in the recent 3D games have bloodshot eyes. This is perhaps because they strain too much when they attack or to look more intimidating.
==Origin==
Venusaur resembles the dinosaurs of the [[wp:Triassic period|Triassic period]], as do its pre-evolutions {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Ivysaur}}.
===Name origin===
Venusaur's name is a combination of the words ''venus'' and ''saur'', which is [[wp:Greek language|Greek]] for ''lizard''. Its Japanese name is a pun on 不思議な花 ''fushigi na hana'', strange flower.
==In other languages==
* [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Bisaflor - Derives from ''Bisamratte'' (musk rat) and ''Flora''.
* [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Florizarre - Comes from a combination of ''floral'' and ''bizzare''.
* [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 이상해꽃 ''Isanghaekkot'' - ''Strange/Weird Flower''
* Chinese (Taiwan): 妙蛙花 ''Miào Wā Huā'' ("strange frog flower")
* Chinese (Hong Kong): 奇異花 ''Qí Yì Huā'' ("very strange flower")
