The best bug type I ever caught in the bug catching contest was a Butterfree. I don't recall what my prize was but, that was when I won when I caught a Butterfree and believe me that little butterfly wasn't a easy one to catch.
I got a shiny scyther while in a bug catching contest, but I think I may have lost :s
When you get a shiny though, you don't care about winning so much because you are so excited. The shiny scizor stayed with me through the game and was an invaluable false-swiper.
I caught really many Pokemon in the Bug Catching Contest, but i think Scyther is the best of them, just as an opinion.
The first one i ever finished with was a Pinsir that got me an (useless) Everstone.... At least i think so.
My first was actually a Metapod. I evolved it into Butterfree before putting it back into the PC for the rest of its life. After that, I got me the Scyther. :D
