Ivysaur's appearance is similar to that of its pre-evolved form, Bulbasaur. Ivysaur's fangs are now larger and are visible outside of its mouth. The weight of the bud on its back makes Ivysaur's legs stronger. The most notable change is that the bulb is blooming, with pink petals visible, and large leaves on the bloom bottom. As the bulbs grow larger, these Ivysaur become more powerful, they must spend more time in the sun to nurture growth. They are docile and tame around those it trusts.
