==Stun Spore==
Butterfree's missing Stun Spore for generations from Yellow to III. --[[User:Raijinili|Raijinili]] 12:39, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
The move list still doesn't match up with [http://www.serebii.net/pokedex/012.shtml|Serebii's] --[[User:Raijinili|Raijinili]] 07:05, 14 October 2007 (UTC)


== Pink Butterfree ==
I may be missing something, but the Shiny Butterfree ''does'' look pink to me. Why do both pages (this and [[Pink Butterfree]]) say that the shiny sprite is not pink? If this is correct, what color is the shiny sprite exactly? ''[[User:Moldy orange|<sup style="color:#4B5320;">'''Moldy'''</sup>]][[User talk:Moldy orange|<sub style="color:#ED9121;">'''Orange'''</sub>]]'' 02:55, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
The shiny Butterfree is a purple Butterfree with pink wings and green eyes. The pink Butterfree is just like the normal Butterfree except its wings and body is pink

see the difference?  --[[Special:Contributions/Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#0005CD;">☆</span>]][[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#15E200;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#DC0062;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 03:00, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
== Red and Green sprite difference? ==
I'm sure it's just my OCD talking, but I think that Butterfree's Red and Green sprite, specifically it's wings, looks different to the other sprites. They almost look like moth wings. Is it noticeable enough to add to the trivia section?

:Sprite trivia sucks. Yes, they look different but technology those days was fairly crap. We generally don't include sprite trivia, though there are a few exceptions here and here. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 21:40, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
== Butterfree/Venomoth conspiracy ==
I think it's worth noting the undeniable resemblance that Butterfree has with Venonat and the Venomoth has with the Caterpie family.  Maybe this deserves a trivia entry?  The original Venomoth art shows it with yellow circles, like Caterpie which never showed up afterward, probably to correct the fact that the sprites were switched (perhaps on accident, or perhaps because Venomoth looks more moth-like and Butterfree looks more butterfly-like, or perhaps even because thinking forward, Venomoth wouldn't have been as popular a choice for the anime character to wield.

:Speculation and opinion. So no. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 18:07, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
:: This is described on the TV Tropes wiki as a "throw it in" (e.g. fan speculation retroactively made canon by the owners), so it's definitely a plausible possibility -- but without an official source (TV Tropes being a fan-contributed wiki itself) to confirm the rumor, the only way to mention it would be as explicit fan speculation.  E.g:
::  ''Butterfree's design bears a strong resemblance to {{p|Venonat}}, leading to some speculation over whether it was intended to be the design for {{p|Venomoth}} instead.'' --''[[User:Stratelier|Stratelier]] 19:09, 12 January 2011 (UTC)''
==Trivia worthy?==
I have an old 2001 issue of Beckett's Pokemon magazine that states in the first generation of Pokemon that Butterfree was the only Pokemon capable of knowing 8 moves at once. Is it worth putting in the trivia section? [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 19:15, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
:Also worth noting that Butterfree is one of the few part flying Pokemon that can't learn Fly? [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 19:18, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
::The Fly bit doesn't belong here, because Butterfree isn't alone. See the first trivia point [[Bug (type)#Trivia|here]]. The other bit, no, because I'm pretty sure it's not true. No Pokémon can know more than four moves at a time in the games. I think magazines and guidebooks have made too many mistakes for them to be noted on the Pokémon pages. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 01:30, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
