"Eww Venusaurs the ugliest starter"
Nah shuddup Venusaur is my wide cat dinosaur baby and I won't have you bullying them.
I’m so glad someone is finally calling out the anti-venasaur bias that is rampant on this website

It's disgusting and im sick of it 😤
They are female coded compared to Charizard and Blastoise so of course patriarchal society hates her.
huh
Venusaur is an absolute unit. Charizard is probably the most female coded
There is more than size going on. Plants are feminine, poison is the weapon of women, Venus is feminine. Her size reads very pre-historic earth mother goddess if you ask me.
A budding flower is very feminine symbolism, which is the bulb-Venusaur through line and theme. Venus and Ivy are also feminine names.
“Charizard” is a very masculine name in comparison
We are arguing about Japanese pocket monsters
Ya'll out here with your Poke-alipers
Who thinks Venusaur isn't cute. What's not to love about a weird lump with a whole ass flower garden on its back? Actual clown world if anyone thinks Venusaur isn't cute. Or Bulbasaur. Or Ivysaur
Queer icon. A frog with their own little succulent garden? Slay
big beautiful stinky boy
My first holo of the main three! I was so excited, made me love Venusaur!
Bulbasaur has always been the best starter. Gimme a big dino boy.
Blastoise was my favorite as a boy, but Venusaur is my favorite as a a man. Competitive Gen 3 OU on pokemon showdown has certainly clarified who is powerful and who is not (Venusaur > Charizard > Blastoise in competitive play)
It's okay, I think Ivysaur is cuter.
My first starter and always in my heart.
What's hexbear's opinion on mega Venusaur? Comment down below ~~and don't forget to like and subscribe~~
All megavolutions are creatively bankrupt. When playing newer games I always stubbornly refuse to use the single-generation gimmick.
Megas are epic and added a lot to battles and I wish my beloved mega Slowbro wasn't stuck in ORAS. Dynamaxing and terrastalization are busted af though. Z moves are ok
The design in both too busy and not busy enough
Not a fan tbh. They just stuck a flower on its head, and they made him too flat imo.
Like comment and subslime
I like the flower but think the design is too similar besides that. Its ingame model looks dopey too, but it's better than mega Blastoise.
