Venusaur with its bulb closed
Venusaur is a squat, quadruped Pokémon with bumpy, blue-green skin. It has small, circular red eyes, a short, blunt snout, and a wide mouth with two pointed teeth in the upper jaw and four in the lower jaw. On top of its head are small, pointed ears with reddish pink insides. It has three clawed toes on each foot. The bud on its back has bloomed into a large pink, white-spotted flower. The flower is supported by a thick, brown trunk surrounded by green fronds. A female Venusaur will have a seed in the center of its flower.
As Mega Venusaur, the flower on its back grows larger and two smaller pink flowers bloom, one on its forehead and one on its rear. The weight of the flower causes its legs and back to become sturdier in order to support it. Additional leaves with woody stems, which are supported by vines, are grown around the flower. Mega Venusaur also develops dark markings on its forehead below the new flower.
Venusaur uses its flower to catch the sun's rays to convert them into energy, which causes the flower to become more vibrant. The flower releases a soothing scent that attracts Pokémon and calms emotions. This scent becomes stronger after a rainy day. In the anime, Venusaur has demonstrated the ability to manipulate nature, release several vines from its back, and lead evolution ceremonies for Bulbasaur and Ivysaur. This Pokémon is rarely found in the wild, but it has been known to inhabit grasslands.
As Gigantamax Venusaur, it becomes larger with its flower blooming even further to the point of covering its body. The eyes change to an orange with light green sclera. It gains several more green leaves along with more petals. The top of the bud becomes longer with three red clouds surrounding it while the trunk shortens. It has several light green markings located at its belly.
Its petals have become thick and springy to the point of defecting halfhearted attacks. It uses the petals as a shield while attacking with its thick vines. Gigantamax Venusaur's flower can spread enough pollen similar to a volcano eruption. Breathing in this pollen can cause uncontrollable sneezing and inhaling large amounts can even cause fainting. However, this pollen also promotes plant growth in areas where it lands.[1].
Frenzy Plant was its signature move in the past, and Venusaur and its pre-evolved forms are currently the only known Pokémon in Pokémon Sword and Shield capable of learning Vine Whip. Gigantamax Venusaur is the only known Pokémon capable of using the exclusive G-Max Move G-Max Vine Lash.

Evolving from Ivysaur, this deceptively toxic Pokémon has a huge flower on its back that emits a cloying fragrance: the scent lulls its enemies into a state of calmness.

With a special type of Mega Stone called Venusaurite, Venusaur can Mega Evolve into Mega Venusaur in the middle of a battle.

Now, that's got to be intimidating!

Trivia
Origin
According to Ken Sugimori in a Japanese interview that was discussing the Pokémon franchise in general, Venusaur was inspired by frogs, albeit with elements of other animals. When asked to describe the basis of the design behind the Bulbasaur evolutionary line, Sugimori had stated that it was "a creature that is something like a frog." In another interview, Sugimori described the origin and the basic themes of the original starter Pokémon: "[T]he experience of keeping small animals such as frogs (Bulbasaur), lizards (Charmander), and baby turtles (Squirtle) as pets gives the game a sense of reality and makes it easier to get into the game. I realized it might be difficult to make an emotional connection if the first partner Pokémon is a tough-looking character."
Venusaur's large, rounded snout; wide mouth; wide-set eyes; bumpy, wart-like skin; and quadruped-like movements are vaguely similar to those of certain amphibians, such as the common toad or the Colorado River toad, both of which are toads that exude toxins from their parotoid glands. Unlike Bulbasaur, Venusaur's "ears" have hollows, indicating that they are in fact ears (such as those seen in cats) and not glands, as seen in many species of frogs and toads. Its claws, teeth, and build also resemble various reptiles, particularly dinosaurs.
The flower on its back resembles the Rafflesia arnoldii.
Name origin
Venusaur is a combination of the words Venus (referring to the Venus flytrap plant) or venom and the Greek saur (lizard).
Fushigibana is a pun on 不思議な花 "fushigi na hana" (strange flower).
