*This Venomoth is listed as having a resistance to Fighting-type Pokémon, as if it was a {{t|Flying}}-type Pokémon, such as {{p|Butterfree}}. However, Venomoth is of both the {{t|Bug}} and {{t|Poison}} types, so it would have a double resistance to Fighting-type attacks, but the TCG usually does not recognize such attributes when assigning Weaknesses and Resistances.
