Collector Insights
Butterfree is a Grass-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of zero. It includes two attacks: Whirlwind, which costs two Colorless Energy and deals 30 damage while forcing the opponent to switch the Defending Pokémon with one of their Benched Pokémon, and Gust, requiring Grass and two Colorless Energy to deal 50 damage. The card possesses a Poké-Body ability called Sooth Dust, which removes one damage counter from each of the player’s Pokémon between turns as long as Butterfree is the Active Pokémon. It resists Fighting-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Lightning-type attacks multiplied by two. The card was released in the FireRed & LeafGreen set under the EX series on September 1, 2004. Designed by artist Atsuko Nishida, it carries a rarity of Rare Holo. This card emphasizes defensive and tactical flexibility through its abilities and attack options.
