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 Skull Bash, and Body Slam with a force more powerful than a speeding armored truck. It also has an incredible leap for such a heavy Pokémon, and it's 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. 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 Earthquakes. Since Venusaur is a fully evolved Pokémon (and the final evolution of a Grass-typed Starter Pokémon for that matter), it can use Hyper Beam, Giga Impact, and Frenzy Plant. 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 are rarely abandoned, if ever. Venusaur's natural habitat seems to consist of plains with access to large amounts of sunshine, and fresh water, and can be found in forest, and jungles. 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. Venusaur resembles the mammal-like reptile from the Triassic Period Kannemeyeria, and toads, as do its pre-evolutions Bulbasaur, and Ivysaur. The flowering plant's origin is unknown but it appears to be a palm tree. The flower itself resembles the parasitic Raflessia. Venusaur's name is a combination of the words "venus", and "saur", which is Greek for lizard.
