Venusaur

 

[MaliciousMango]

Venusaur is a large, quadrupedal Pokémon with a turquoise body. It has small red eyes and several large ferns on its back and head. The plant bulb that was on the back of its previous evolutions, Bulbasaur and Ivysaur, has now bloomed into a large flower with large pink petals and a yellow center. The female has a seed in the center. Venusaur is inspired by toads and the horned frog. The large flower is similar to the Rafflesia arnoldii, a parasitic plant with an unpleasant odor, referencing the Pokémon's Poison type, however, the flower’s aroma is also said to occasionally soothe the emotions of people. Huge amounts of pollen burst from it with the force of a volcanic eruption, breathing in too much of the pollen can cause fainting. By spreading the broad petals of its flower and catching the sun’s rays, it fills its body with power—it constantly seeks sunlight.
