Butterfree definitely, I trained one in the Kanto and it is just awesome, I trained a Beedrill b4 and I put it in my pc cuz I didnt like it that much...

I used to love Butterfree due to the anime, but after catching a shiny Weedle (now a Beedrill), I love Beedrill. Both are pretty cool..

QANTAN January 1st, 2009 12:29 PM

Beedrills for me are very easy to level up. Useless overall but gets the job done early.

SparklingMistral January 1st, 2009 12:52 PM

Butterfree is just really amazing. And I love it's shiny form. :D And it ends up having some good moves like Confusion and such which helps out early on in the game.

Just for that move?

I prefer Beedrill In my FR team it was the main man. Well main Bee. It is faster and is a physical attack which helped my get my friens Alakazam down quickly and has the better look.

i think butterfree is better because i hate beedrill 0.o

Butterfree OBVIOUSLY!

lol, he is better in every way possible ^^

I went for beedrill, it is cooler with its twin needle. Butterfree may have psychic moves in its artillery, but beedrill does have cool moves, like sludge bomb and twin needle and poison jab.

Butterfree overall and its took lately in-game with it's new ability compoundeyes so it can do what it was made for sleep powder and stun spore.

If you sludge bomb with Beedrill... I don't wanna know the rest of your team ;P

obviously butterfree, it's cooler, but even stronger

Beelzebub January 2nd, 2009 8:20 PM

I prefer Butterfree. It's always been quite pretty, imo. =D Plus, I used to have a strong one in my LeafGreen that I loved.

Fenrir Reki January 2nd, 2009 8:47 PM

Butterfree because I find him easier to train then Beedrill.

EnteiFirecracker January 2nd, 2009 9:07 PM

I prefer Butterfree to Beedrill for a very superficial reason - Butterfree is simply cuter than Beedrill.

Hyunbin January 2nd, 2009 9:20 PM

i will go completely aesthetic here and say butterfree because i hate the color yellow XD

Warmachine January 2nd, 2009 9:39 PM

Butterfree is a total BA you dont mess with that Butterfly

#Infinity January 2nd, 2009 9:45 PM

Beedrill has some cool moves, but I hate its low defense and part-poison nature that prevents it from being useful against psychic types. Butterfree has better stats and more versatile moves, so I prefer it.

Caelus January 2nd, 2009 11:24 PM

I prefer ButterFree.
I never liked Beedrill due to it's resemblance to that of a hornet (Which is one of my least favorite insects).
I also find Butterfree's stats to be better, so It's more "useful" in battle.

kissing. raindrops January 2nd, 2009 11:27 PM

Butterfree! :3
Obviously, it's cuter <3

Crimson Arcanine January 2nd, 2009 11:44 PM

No real preference. Beedrill is cooler looking, but then again I wouldn't be training one in real life because one accidental Posion Sting could kill me :O

Butterfree is better combat wise but isn't really my sort of pokemon.

Circus. January 2nd, 2009 11:49 PM

Butterfree

Beedrill - Sucks

Tiny January 2nd, 2009 11:52 PM

i like beedrill for some odd reason.
I guesss cause it looks cooler
butterfree is cool too
c:

MartinNFLFalcon January 2nd, 2009 11:59 PM

I like Beedrill for offense and looks. To me he looks tougher.
Butterfree is good for offense in a way too, but eh, Not to my liking.. Great for catching legendaries with the ability to learn, Poison Powder, Stun Spore AND Sleep Powder. Also Confusion can come in handy, and I'm pretty sure she can learn Psychic?

Eh. I don't like either much at since I don't exactly use them in my Part what so ever XP

I really like Beedrill honestly. It's probably one of the worst Bug Pokemon in the entire game, but man did it kick tail back in Red/Blue/Yellow. It was the only thing that could hit Mewtwo for super effective thanks to its Bug STAB (well...Leech Life Golbat too, but Golbat was amazing itself). Not only does it have the intimidating stinger, but it has stinger claws. People, honestly, if you don't stinger claws are amazing, you need to set your standards a little bit lower.
