The Mega Evolutions for the three Pokémon's final forms were created, and the designers decided that they should give players an opportunity to receive one of these Pokémon from Professor Sycamore, the games professor, to see their Mega Evolved form. The idea to feature Bulbasaur and the other Red and Blue starters in a significant role in Pokémon X and Y came about a year and a half into the development of the games.
Both the etymology and appearance of Bulbasaur, Ivysaur and Venusaur convey a transition of this Pokémon from the harmless to the dangerous as it evolves. In translating the game for English speaking audiences, Nintendo gave the Pokémon "cleverly descriptive names" related to their appearance or features as a means to make the characters more relatable to American children thus Bulbasaur, a portmanteau relating to both its dino saurian appearance and the large garlic-shaped bulb on its back. Its Japanese name, Fushigidane (fu-SHI-gi-DAHN-eh), is a combination of the Japanese words for mystery or miracle ( fushigi) and seed ( tane). The species first appeared as one of three starter Pokémon the player could choose from at the beginning of the initial Game Boy games, Pokémon Red and Blue, released in Japan in 1996. The website Bulbapedia, a spin-off of Wikipedia dedicated solely to the Pokémon franchise, is named after Bulbasaur.īulbasaur was designed by Atsuko Nishida, one of the character designers for Pocket Monsters Red and Blue, who based its design on Ivysaur, the mid-evolved form of Bulbasaur. Venusaur can also evolve into Mega Venusaur if the player equips it with a Venusaurite, but this feature was only first added to the Pokémon games in Pokémon X and Y. Bulbasaur has been featured in myriad pieces of merchandise, including toys, key chains, and plush dolls.īulbasaur can evolve into Ivysaur at level 16, and can further evolve into Venusaur at level 32. It is featured in various manga, and is owned by protagonist Red in the Pokémon Adventures manga. It is a central character in the Pokémon anime, being one of Ash Ketchum's main Pokémon for the first season, and a different one later being obtained by May. While it sleeps, the seed on its back catches the rays and uses the energy to grow. Known as the Seed Pokémon, Bulbasaur can survive for days solely on sunlight. Since then, it has reappeared in subsequent sequels, spin-off games, related merchandise, and animated and printed adaptations of the franchise. Designed by Atsuko Nishida, Bulbasaur debuted in Pocket Monsters: Red and Green ( Pokémon Red and Blue outside Japan) as a starter Pokémon. It is the first in the franchise's monster index, called a Pokédex.
Bulbasaur is a Grass/Poison-type Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
