Butterfree (Japanese: バタフリー Butterfree, German: Smettbo, French: Papilusion) is a Bug/Flying-type Pokémon.

Name origin

It's name is probably just a mispelling of "butterfly", although the "free" could also be intended to emphasize how much more freedom it has now that it's evolved into something that can fly.

It's design appears to be based upon a common butterfly.
