The ivysaur (Megalovegetosaurus pokevus) is a species of large pig-sized non-mammal synapsid that originally did not exist, but as since been created by SciiFii due to a demand of real life Pokémon-like animals from Pokémon fans. However, some were released into the wilderness throughout North America, South America, Eurasia, and Africa due to pet releases by careless pet owners. The ivysaur is an omnivore, but is normally a herbivore that primarily feeds on fruits, leaves, roots, tubers, grasses, and vegetables, only feeding on fungi and insects to supplement its diet. Unlike most vertebrates, it has a bulb growing on its back, even when first born after hatching, due to SciiFii's complex genetic tweaking and inserting some plant genes to allow a plant to grow on its back. The plant growing on its back helps make the animal toxic to most predators except humans, cats, dogs, or several mustelids/mongooses. The ivysaur is a highly vocal animal that makes squeaks and squeals that are deeper in tone and slightly lower pitched than the vocalizations of bulbasaurs. The ivysaurs are highly-social animals that can live in herds up to around 50-75 at a time. The conservation status of the ivysaurs is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the ivysaur's wide range, and its tolerance to most of human activities, allowing it to survive and adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
