{{pkmn|Venusaur}} is a Grass/Poison-type Pokémon introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}. It is the final form of the {{iw|bulbapedia|starter Pokémon}} {{pkmn|Bulbasaur}} and evolves from [[Ivysaur]] at level 32, the lowest of all the Kanto starters. Venusaur has a distinct plant on its back, which is made up of large leaves used for photosynthesis and an equally large flower. It gained a Mega Evolution in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation VI}}. It is registered at #003 in the National Pokédex, and known as the "Seed Pokémon". While Venusaur was unused in the base games for ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Sword and Shield}}'' until the release of ''Pokémon Home'', it became obtainable in the games via ''{{iw|bulbapedia|The Isle of Armor}}'' DLC expansion, with a Gigantamax form.

{{iw|bulbapedia|Earthquake|move}} is a physical Ground-type move with 100 base power and 100% accuracy which hits all Pokémon adjacent to the user. Its good type coverage, high power with no drawbacks and wide availability makes it a staple of many movesets. Venusaur, like many other Pokémon, can learn it using {{iw|bulbapedia|TM26}}. However, Venusaur could not learn Earthquake until Generation III, while ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' (the only game in which Venusaur appears as a summon) was released during Generation II.

Venusaur is one of five Pokémon which appear on the [[Saffron City]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' When it appears from the Silph building, it shouts its name and attacks using [[Razor Leaf]]. When Venusaur appears, it initially "tackles" any character nearby, knocking them far away enough to take damage from Razor Leaf. The leaves have set knockback and keep the opponent suspended in the air as he or she takes damage (similarly to [[Chikorita]]'s attack in later games). The sound effect heard is the same as the one for [[Starmie]]'s Swift, and both attacks coincidentally are launched in similar fashions at similar speeds. Sometimes, Venusaur will pop out without performing an attack at all. This only happens when there's a character next to the door Venusaur comes out of. Its Japanese and English voice clips each come from the ''Pokémon'' episode ''Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden''.

|desc=(1.0/1.01 NTSC) 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 [[bulbapedia:Solar Beam (move)|Solarbeam]] move. Think of [[bulbapedia:Grass (type)|Grass-]] and [[bulbapedia:Poison (type)|Poison-type]] Pokémon, and Venusaur comes first.

|desc-ntsc=With a special type of Mega Stone called Venusaurite, Venusaur can Mega Evolve into Mega Venusaur in the middle of a battle. Not only does Venusaur get a large defense boost when it Mega Evolves, but the plants on its back grow so much, it looks like you're being attacked by a walking jungle. Now, that's got to be intimidating!
