Appearance
Servine's small leaf-like hands by its cream colored underside have shrunk because it is on its way to becoming more of a serpent—Serperior. It has large red eyes and a yellow collar that is larger than Snivy's but smaller than Serperior's. It also has a tuft of a leaf atop its head and has gained two leaves on top of its tail. Its legs have also shrunk since it evolved.
In the Anime
A Servine appeared in BW004, it was battling a Dewott that it defeated despite the type advantage. Another Servine appears in BW010 under the control of Ash's rival, Trip. It defeated Ash's Pikachu but was infatuated and defeated by Ash's Snivy.
In Pokemon Adventures
Servine was sent out by N to fight Gigi, who defeated it with much delight. When White attempted to escape from N by falling from the ferris wheel in Nimbasa City, the Servine stays by her side.
Evolution
Servine evolved from Snivy starting at level 17. Servine evolves into Serperior at level 36.
