Best Venusaur Builds in Pokemon Champions

Venusaur has two main builds in Pokemon Champions. The Mega Venusaur build is the stronger bulky option, while the Chlorophyll build is better on sun teams that want speed control and Sleep Powder pressure.

Build 1: Mega Venusaur Bulky Special Attacker

This is the main Venusaur build. It focuses on taking hits, spreading pressure and winning longer games with reliable Grass and Poison-type damage.

Ability Thick Fat after Mega Evolution

Moves Giga Drain, Sludge Bomb, Leech Seed, Protect
Stat Point Spread HP: 24 / Sp. Atk: 28 / Sp. Def: 10

Build 2: Chlorophyll Sun Support Attacker

This version uses sun support to become much faster. Use this build when Venusaur is paired with a sun setter and your team wants Sleep Powder plus immediate Grass-type pressure.

Item Life Orb or Wide Lens
Ability Chlorophyll
Nature Timid, +Speed and -Attack
Moves Solar Beam, Sludge Bomb, Sleep Powder, Protect
Stat Point Spread HP: 10 / Sp. Atk: 32 / Speed: 20

Best Items for Venusaur

Venusaurite is the best item for the main build because it enables Mega Venusaur and gives Venusaur Thick Fat. This makes Venusaur much harder to remove and improves its matchups into Fire and Ice damage.

Life Orb or Wide Lens are the best options for the Chlorophyll build. Life Orb increases damage, while Wide Lens makes Sleep Powder more reliable, because apparently accuracy is still allowed to ruin civilization.

Best Pokemon to Pair with Venusaur

Venusaur works best with Pokemon that give it sun, protect it from Flying and Psychic threats or help it stay on the field longer.

Charizard

Sets sun with Mega Charizard Y and gives Venusaur faster Chlorophyll turns.

Torkoal

Provides sun support and helps Venusaur pressure slower teams.

Heatran

Covers many Ice, Flying and Psychic-type threats that can pressure Venusaur.

What Venusaur Is Good Against

Venusaur is strong against teams that rely on Water, Ground, Rock, Grass and Fairy-type Pokemon. It can absorb pressure well and punish bulky teams with Leech Seed and Giga Drain.

Mega Venusaur is especially useful into teams that cannot hit it super effectively, while Chlorophyll Venusaur can overwhelm offensive teams when sun is active.

Potential Counters for Venusaur

Venusaur is threatened by Flying, Psychic and strong Fire-type damage before Mega Evolution. Teams with fast attackers, Taunt or strong weather control can make Venusaur harder to use.

Talonflame

Threatens Venusaur with fast Flying-type damage and priority pressure.

Alakazam

Uses strong Psychic-type attacks to pressure Venusaur before it can stabilize.

Charizard

Can threaten Venusaur with Fire and Flying pressure, especially outside of Mega Venusaur matchups.

Should You Use Venusaur?

Venusaur is worth using if your team wants a bulky Grass-type Pokemon that can handle Water, Ground and Fairy matchups while still applying steady special damage.

Mega Venusaur is the safer and more consistent build, while Chlorophyll Venusaur is better when your team is already built around sun.
