  • Weird Butterfrees...


    Anyone know if this was ever explained? In The Orange Islands episode, Snack Attack, the person telling ash/misty/tracey about her grapefruit said she brought butterfree over to pollenate the flowers, and this was the flashback... was the odd coloring ever explained?

    Its the exotic Pokémon. They have different colours. I believe there was a Vileplume and a few other Pokémon that had different colours aswel.

  • xD, I saw very little of the orange islands episodes, mainly episodes new pokemon were caught, the gym battles, and final battle, which is why I asked...

    So there's exotic pokemon and pink pokemon in the OI? O.o;

    They actually explained it very early on in the Orange Island arc. Basically, the Pokemon in the Orange Islands are differently-colored than others elsewhere because of their location and foodsources (due to their location).

  • And the Pink Nidoking was the prelude to the coloring issues in G/S, I guess. Even though, this is answered, I'll leave it up for a bit for those who want to debate the color scheme. Whee.

  • The Pink Butterfree, you mean.

    Since we were talking on OI, and G/S was on the horizon, it was the immediate connection for me. But yes, the Pink Butterfree was the first true, but I don't think at the time, the writers thought about the games's possible future color scheme.

    And it's hard to keep track anymore. 500+ episodes, oy.

    You got a new username, awesome. Heh.
