Trivia
- Virizion has the highest Special Defense of all Grass- and Fighting-type Pokémon.

Origin
Virizion appears to be based on the character of Aramis from the novel The Three Musketeers. Like Aramis, it is the best at swordplay. Aramis in the novels was also the most feminine, vain, and romantic, qualities that Virizion possesses relative to its comrades. It physically resembles antelopes, such as the gerenuk or other species of gazelle. It may also be based on female deer. Like its comrades, its nose resemble that of a sheep.
Name origin
Virizion may be derived from viridian (a bluish-green color), or simply viridis (Latin for green), and possibly champion.
