CARDEX BACKGROUND

About the species

Bellsprout prefers warm, humid places where Bug-type Pokémon pass by. Its frail, flexible body lets it bend to avoid an attack, then grab prey with its vines. It can also spit a corrosive liquid. Its bud, which resembles a human face, has inspired comparisons with the mandrake of legend. The Pokédex thus contrasts a delicate silhouette with very rapid movements and a powerful chemical defense.

This account describes the species in the video games. It does not describe its Trainer’s history or that of this copy, and does not identify the depicted form or sex.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Omega Ruby credits Bellsprout's fluid with the ability to dissolve iron. Pokémon Y reports a belief connecting it with a mandrake because of its bud. The corrosive effect is described as an ability; the legendary resemblance is a human interpretation.
