Description Here it is, the colour vertion of bulbasaur, hope you like it

Bulbasaur are interesting little animals as they are Synapsid's (dicynodont), both mammal's and reptiles. They have warm blood but have strong characteristics of reptiles such as its skin ans skeletal structure.
However the most striking and rare feature is its bulb that grows from its back. Bulbasaur are a member of a small group of animals that have a symbiotic relationship with another living thing to survive. The plant absorbs sun light and turns it into food which energises both plant and animal, while the bulbasaur eats food and drinks which the plant can also feeds off allowing it to grow strong even through the night.
The plant boosts the Bulbasaurs amune system which gives the animal strong defences against infection, viruses, illnesses and poisons. Now, because of this symbiotic relationship the bulbasaur cannot survive without the plant in its body.
When the Bulbasaur is first born the mother Venusaur emplants a seed into its back, for the first few days after being born they are at a very vunrable stage and many babies do not survive, luckily the plant grows very quickly once emplanted and creates the amune system for the new born.
It is impossible to emplant a bulbasaur seed into another pokemon as the plant will kill it by growing into vital organs.
The plant grows into its spinal chord allowing messages from the brain to reach the plant, allowing the animal to control some of the plants function such as vine whip, a move the Bulbasaur is famous for. The stronger vines grow down through holes in the shoulders and combined with muscle tention and vine control can use them as powerful weapons.
As the Pokemon grows the bulb gets heavier, at a younger age the Bulbasaur can lift up on their hind legs but as it grows it looses this ability as the bulb slowly gets heavier and heavier.
As they are young they do not breed, but this doesnt mean they cant, it is simply healthier for Venusaurs to breed as they are the only ones with a fully grown plant to implant seeds. Only Bulbasaurs that have bred in captivity have sucessfully had young with no fatalities as the trainer/ breeders order in Venusaur seeds, but this is not recommended.
As most pokemon Bulbasaurs must undertake a methamorphasis/ evolving to survive as they get healthier and stronger, if they do not evolve their life span is dramatically reduced. They have been said to have similar intelligence to a dog which makes training easier.
They have varied personnality but most of the time they are loyal creatures, and are seen as one of the easiest starters to train.
They are one of the main starters in Kanto, which means they are indangered. they are given out to trainers to build their strength and to evolve them so they can get more Venusaurs for the breeding process. It is hard to evolve a pokemon such as this without training and plenty of excercise and experience, something the breeders do not have time to do, so it becomes the trainers duty to eventually breed their pokemon.
Sadly venusaur are hunted for their flowers and sometimes Bulbasaur are killed in the process. It is illegal to hunt these animals and many of the last wild Bulbasaurs etc are kept in sancturarys to protect them. This is why they are so rare and why they must be rescued from the bring of extinction.
