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

| ==Origin==

| |
| Ivysaur is a dual Grass/Poison-type Pokémon and 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.
| |
|
| |
| However, unlike in [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Red and Green Versions|''Pokémon Red'', ''Green'']], and [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|''Blue'']], Bulbasaur is obtainable alongside its fellow Kanto starters {{s|bulbapedia|Squirtle}} and {{s|bulbapedia|Charmander}} under special conditions in ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Yellow Version}}'', and relatively early on in [[bulbapedia:Pokémon X and Y|''Pokémon X'' and ''Y'']].
| |
|
| |
| 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.
| |
|
| |
| 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''', also known as '''Fushigisou''' ({{ja|フシギソウ}}, ''Fushigisō'') in Japan, is a species of Pokémon. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', it is one of the three [[Pokémon]] that a player can control as a fighter via [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBB)|Pokémon Trainer]]. |

| 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]]. | |

| ===Trophy===
| | Ivysaur appears as a moderately large, blue, squat, quadrupedal saurian with the plant on its back now in the form of a pink bud and large green leaves. The bulb formerly on its back has grown and partially bloomed both to exposure from sunlight and apparently from drawing energy from Ivysaur's own body, which also gets stronger when it absorbs sunlight. The budding flower is heavy enough that Ivysaur appears to lose the ability to stand on its hind legs, but its four legs and trunk grow thick and strong from the weight of the flower, even as a quadruped. If it 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 specie's evolution into its final form, Venusaur. |

When this happens, the bulb absorbs nutrients and blossoms into a large-petaled flower.

| | Ivysaur makes its debut in the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] in its third installment, ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It is playable as one of the three [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] used through [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBB)|Pokémon Trainer]], the other two being [[Squirtle]] and [[Charizard]]. It is presumably the middleweight of the trio of Pokémon that Pokémon Trainer can utilize, and comes equipped with a [[Vine Whip|Tether Recovery Up Special]] attack. |

| |
| Ivysaur returns as a playable character as part of {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}}, alongside {{SSBU|Squirtle}} and {{SSBU|Charizard}}, in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. Like Squirtle and Charizard, it is no longer subject to [[Pokemon Change#Stamina|stamina]], and thus remains effective throughout a fight. Unlike ''Brawl'', Pokémon Trainer is an unlockable character instead of a starter character.
| |
|
| |
|
| 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.
