'''Ivysaur''' ({{ja|フシギソウ|Fushigisō}}, ''Fushigisou'') is a fictional creature from the ''{{uv|Pokémon}}'' series. It debuted in the series' [[bulbapedia:Generation I|first generation]] as the second stage [[bulbapedia:Grass (type)|Grass-type]] [[bulbapedia:Starter Pokémon|starter Pokémon]] of [[bulbapedia:Kanto|Kanto]], and represents that generation as a playable character (via [[Pokémon Trainer]]) in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. | |||

Ivysaur is the evolved form of {{s|bulbapedia|Bulbasaur}}, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #002 as the "Seed Pokémon". Ivysaur appears as a moderately large, teal, quadrupedal frog-like Pokémon. It evolves from Bulbasaur evolves at level 16 onward, and then evolves into [[Venusaur]] at level 32 onward. | |||

Unlike Bulbasaur, the bulb on Ivysaur's back has partially bloomed into a pink bud with large green leaves, thanks to exposure from sunlight and apparently from drawing energy from Ivysaur's own body. The budding flower is heavy enough that Ivysaur has difficulty standing on its hind legs, but its four legs and torso grow thick and strong from the weight of the flower, even as a quadruped. Aside from assisting its bud's growth, sunlight also increases Ivysaur's strength. | Unlike Bulbasaur, the bulb on Ivysaur's back has partially bloomed into a pink bud with large green leaves, thanks to exposure from sunlight and apparently from drawing energy from Ivysaur's own body.

If Ivysaur starts spending more time lying in the sunlight, it is a sign that the bud will bloom into a large flower soon, which would be heralded by the bud giving off a sweet, pleasant aroma and the species' evolution into its final form, Venusaur. | If Ivysaur starts spending more time lying in the sunlight, it is a sign that the bud will bloom into a large flower soon, which would be heralded by the bud giving off a sweet, pleasant aroma and the species' evolution into its final form, Venusaur. | ||

Ivysaur appears as a playable character ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. It is one of {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}'s three Pokémon, alongside {{SSBB|Squirtle}} and {{SSBB|Charizard}}. Ivysaur can be switched into or out of battle via [[Pokémon Change]], which operates similarly to [[Transform]]. | Ivysaur appears as a playable character ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.

If the blossom gets too big, the Pokémon can't stand on two legs alone. At a certain level, it evolves into Venusaur. When this happens, the bulb absorbs nutrients and blossoms into a large-petaled flower.'' | ||

Like Squirtle and Charizard, it is no longer subject to [[Pokemon Change#Stamina|stamina]], and thus remains effective throughout a fight.

Ivysaur was previously considered the worst Pokémon in the Pokemon Trainer's party and one of the worst characters in Brawl (especially if judged as a standalone fighter), due to its large amount of significant weaknesses, namely short range on its attacks, notable KO problems due to laggy finishers, a bad aerial game, a terrible recovery, and one of the worst special movesets in the game. Likely as a result of this, Ivysaur has been heavily buffed in its transition to ''Ultimate'' and is now considered the best Pokémon in the Trainer's arsenal, gaining notoriety in the community thanks to its up and down aerials. | Ivysaur was previously considered the worst Pokémon in the Pokemon Trainer's party and one of the worst characters in Brawl (especially if judged as a standalone fighter), due to its large amount of significant weaknesses, namely short range on its attacks, notable KO problems due to laggy finishers, a bad aerial game, a terrible recovery, and one of the worst special movesets in the game.
