Victreebel has the same shape as Weepinbell, only upside-down. There are four sharp teeth in Victreebel's mouth. Victreebel has a leaf covering its mouth that has a long, brown vine with a yellow tip growing out of it.
(Unconfirmed!)
They can be found in small groups, and are highly territorial. At the depths of the most dangerous jungles Victreebel live in huge colonies, and few Pokémon enter their territory, and live to tell the tale. Victreebel horde food, usually small birds, and rodents, and collect Leaf Stones to perform evolution rituals at night to help Weepinbell become more Victreebel.
Victreebel live in forests, as well as tropical jungles, and swamps where the ground is rich in nutrients. They can also occasionally be found in caves, near sources of underground water.
It uses an incredibly sweet-smelling honey to attract bugs, and sometimes larger prey, ranging from small rodents to creatures almost as large as themselves. The prey is then swallowed whole, and is slowly digested by powerful acids strong enough to melt steel.
Victreebel, and its pre-evolutions may be based upon carnivorous pitcher plants.
Victreebel's name seems to be be a combination of "bell," referring to its bell-like shape, and "victory." The two E's in its name could also come from the word "tree."
