Facts about the Bulbasaur Family

1. Ivysaur was originally bipedal

That’s right, Ivysaur was initially depicted as being bipedal. Pokemon Red and Blue had a lot of sprites that have differences from how they are depicted today and many fans agree that they are odd. However, some Pokedex entries also imply Ivysaur being bipedal, at least until its flower grows too large. Its original Red/Blue entry states “When the bulb on its back grows large, it appears to lose the ability to stand on its hind legs.” Later games, including Sword and Shield, repeat this entry.

2. Ivysaur was also the first Pokemon created out of the Bulbasaur family

Ivysaur was one of the very first monsters created for the Capsule Monsters pitch, before evolution was even conceptualized. Venusaur was later designed as its evolution, who was then used to base Bulbasaur on. This makes Bulbasaur the last of its family to be created.

3. The flower on Venusaur’s back is based on the corpse flower

The flower on Venusaur resembles the rafflesia arnoldii, which is also known as the corpse flower. It is a large flower with a strong and foul odor which is often compared to decaying fish and rotting corpses.

4. Bulbasaur is only one of two starters to have a dual-type in its base form.

Bulbasaur is a Grass/Poison type and was the only base starter to have a second type until the Grass/Flying Rowlet was introduced in Generation VII.

5. The names of the Bulbasaur family were censored on the GTS in Generation V

The censor for the GTS censored Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, and Venusaur because their names contained the letters ‘sau’ which also happened to spell an offensive German word. Because of this, players had to nickname their Pokemon from the Bulbasaur line if they wanted to trade them.

6. Venusaur is the first Pokemon in the national dex to have a gender difference.

It may seem subtle, but starting in Generation IV, Venusaur gains a small gender difference. Females have a seed in the center of their flowers that males do not. This seed disappears if a female Venusaur mega-evolves or gigantamaxes since gender differences are not retained.
