Alola! I'm Butterfreeism, and welcome to my userpage! It's a work in progress. If you have any suggestions, let me know on my talk page!
Current projects
Here are my current Bulbapedia projects:
- Adding/expanding the "Route description"/"Geography" sections for Alolan & Galarian locations
- Fleshing out & streamlining the "Biology" descriptions for Pokémon
- Fixing grammatical, stylistic, and typographical issues wherever I find them
About me
I've been a Pokémon fan since my childhood in the 1990s. I played Pokémon Yellow on my GameBoy Color, though I never actually finished it. (I couldn't find HM03 (Surf) in the Safari Zone, so I couldn't finish get any further than the Fuchsia Gym.) I watched the Pokémon: Indigo League anime every day after school. I collected Pokémon Cards in a big Pokémon binder, though I never knew how to play the game.
While I continued to like Pokémon and remember a lot about Generation I, I stopped keeping up with Pokémon (in any form) just before the start of Generation III. By the time I got a DS in the mid-2000s, I wasn't even aware that more Pokémon games were coming out. But, I've finally got back into the wonderful world of Pokémon with Pokémon Moon and Pokémon GO in 2016.
Since then, my husband & I have played all the games as they've come out, up to and including Pokémon Shield! We've also kept up somewhat with the new movies and started collecting Pokémon Cards again. I've started to learn how to play the TCG, but we mostly just collect the cards to collect them.
My username is inspired by the Generation I Pokémon Butterfree. I didn't come up with it myself, though; it comes from something we did in my frosh dorm in college. One day, we decided to list out which Pokémon everyone was, and my dormmates decided I was the Butterfree of our dorm. And I kind of ran with it!
Pokémon Universe
If I were a character in the Pokémon Universe, my starter would be the Grass-type Starter for the region. The only exceptions I'd make would be in Unova, where I'd choose Tepig, and Kalos, where I'd choose Froakie.
Regardless of my Starter choice, I'd probably end up becoming a trainer focused on Ghosts (e.g. a male Psychic that focuses on Ghosts or a Punk Guy that throws in a few Ghosts). To be close to the Ghost Pokémon, I'd live in one of the following cities:
- Lavender Town if I lived in Kanto;
- Konikoni City if I lived in Alola, as Konikoni City is close to Memorial Hill; or
- Stow-on-Side if I lived in Galar, as it's close to a few Ghosts on Route 6 & in Glimwood Tangle.
I don't know the other regions well enough yet to say which city or town I'd prefer.
I'm not sure how much of a Pokémon adventure I'd undertake, or even whether I'd challenge the Elite Four. I might be a Pokémon Breeder (in the anime sense) instead.
Usertags
Below are the usertags that I've come across that both apply to me and that I liked. If you have suggestions for other ones, drop me a note on my talk page.

Favorites
Below are lists of my favorites for various aspects of the Pokémon Universe.
Favorite types

Games
I've played the following core series games, at least briefly:
- Pokémon Yellow;
- Pokémon Zafiro, the Spanish version of Pokémon Sapphire;
- Pokémon Leaf Green;
- ポケットモンスター ブラック 2, the Japanese version of Pokémon Black 2;
- Pokémon Y
- Pokémon Moon;
- Pokémon Ultra Sun;
- Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu!; and
- Pokémon Shield.
Despite playing all of these games for extended periods of time, I've only beaten Pokémon Moon and Pokémon Shield so far. I'm a major spader in Pokémon games. However, I do fully intend to play through each of the ones I still have access to until I beat them!
Through the years, I've also played a number of the spin-off Pokémon games, most notably Pokémon GO. I started playing on the first day it came out in 2016, and I've never really stopped. It helps that I've always lived/worked in places with good access to PokéStops and Gyms.
Teams
Here are my main teams.
Pokémon GO
When I think about my 'team' in Pokémon GO, I think of my top CP Pokémon that I use frequently in Gym Battles and Raid Battles.
Pokémon Shield
Here is the team I used to compete in (and win) the Galar League.
