3rd Gen Dustox or Beautifly?

[Aquilae]

Butterfree > Them.

At least Beautifly has a decent SpA (90). Dustox is forced to Toxistall with 60/70/90 defences and has a bad typing (5 weaks, Rock Slide, BoltBeam weak). Light Screen doesn't help it as Meta can come in for free.

Butterfree's Compoundeyes Sleep Powder (90% acc) is abusive and that easily > them all.

Close. CompoundEyes allow a 97% accurracy. That is important, and is one reason I love Butterfree. It also has that with Stun Spore, making it a Thunderwave that hits ground types. All it needs is base 100 spd, or at least base 90.

But don't downplay Dustox! It completly took me by surprise in one match (which really shouldn't, in retrospect). Besides, it's not really meant for real OU metagame, so Metagross doesn't matter.

In a cosmetic view, I say Beautifly, but I keep getting damn Dustox!

Uh, Dustox is not BoltBeam weak. It is Bug/Poison, weak to Ground, Rock, Fire, Psychic and Flying. Somehow you get 5 weaks right, but listed BoltBeam as a weak??

 

[MetalMEB]

^Its not weak to Ground, actually. Its only 4 weaknesses, the Bug part resists Ground... So its neutral.

Beautfily is & always will be my favourite Pokemon ;3. But besides that Beautifly is better, better moves & if you ask me better in contests ;3

 

[Beria]

I prefer Beautifly bechause it looks rlly better then Dustox xD And I think it has better moves? Im not sure...xD"

 

[Red1530]

I would go with Dustox because it has better attacks.

 

[Kishijoten]

well i pick beautifly because it's pretty and graceful it knows silver wind and when it uses silver wind it looks better on it. I think beautfly has more votes because of it's beauty and colorful wings heh i chosed it because it is a great pokemon to enter in a smart contest

 

[F.E. DeWitt Jr.]

Beautifly because shes so beautiful and awesome. Dustox just looks weird, hes like an oragami model.

 

[GlitchCity]

Beautifuly, for me its purly looks. :D

 

[lavenderbolt]

i don't use either of them, but i will choose beautyfly. why? you know a wurmple with high IV will evolve into silcoon and low IV will turn to cascoon, right?

 

[JeTz]

I will go for Beautifly cause it's gorgeous

 

[mondays suck]

As an ingame only player, I prefer Beautifly, since offensive strategies are often more viable (mainly because they consume less time) in-game.
I think, when overleveled enough, Beautifly's rather high Special Attack should be able to KO stuff more or less easily, and the high level will compensate for the low speed.

 

[Tox]

I don't like either. They're both really ugly. I hate that thing that comes out of Beautifly's face. I'm going with Dustox. It looks slightly better. Also, Jessie > May. So.

 

[ThwackX]

i vote for neither as they are both disgusting little bugs.
