Erika has a Venusaur that debuted in ''[[PM010|Big Struggle with the Powerful Opponent Venusaur!!]]''.
In ''[[ET09|I'm Your Venusaur]]'', a local legend states that a 300-year-old tree, the Venusaur Tree, was grown out of a Venusaur who protected the town from invaders many years ago. The Venusaur and its tree are considered the guardians of the town.


{{OBP|Giovanni|Pocket Monsters}} has a Venusaur in ''[[PM025|Bring Down the Strongest Pokémon!!]]''.
Gary has a Venusaur which was sent out with his other Pokémon to battle the giant Slowpoke in ''[[ET19|Ash vs. Gary]]''.

{{OBP|Professor Oak|Pocket Monsters}} is shown to have one in ''[[PM040|Save the Pokémon Zoo!!]]''.
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Saur}}
{{adv|Red}} has a Venusaur nicknamed Saur which he received it as a {{p|Bulbasaur}} from {{adv|Professor Oak}} in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]'' after witnessing the bond shared between the two while battling a wild {{p|Machoke}}, learning {{m|SolarBeam}} in the process. Bulbasaur evolved into {{p|Ivysaur}} in ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'' after defeating a wild {{p|Primeape}}, and into Venusaur in ''[[PS033|The Winged Legends]]'' while fighting against [[Thu-Fi-Zer|the merged version]] of {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Articuno}} along [[Blue's Charizard]] and [[Blasty]], defeating it with its augmented {{m|SolarBeam}} while the others used {{m|Flamethrower}} and {{m|Hydro Pump}}, respectively. With the unusual help of [[Poli]] and [[Pika]] he was able to defeat Blue's Charizard at the Pokémon League, winning the battle and the tournament. At [[Two Island]], Saur learned {{m|Frenzy Plant}} from [[Ultima]], and was able to destroy {{adv|Mewtwo}}'s restrictive M2 Bind, again with the help of the other two starters. During this incident, it was temporarily traded to {{adv|Blue}}, but was given back to its owner soon afterward.
