Butterfree is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It features two attacks: Whirlwind, which costs two Colorless Energy to deal 20 damage and forces the opponent to switch their Benched Pokémon with the Defending one, and Mega Drain, requiring four Grass Energy to deal 40 damage while removing damage counters from Butterfree based on half the damage dealt. The card includes a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 30, and a weakness to Fire-type attacks, which deals double damage. Its flavor text describes the Pokémon releasing toxic dust into the air during battle. Designed by artist Kagemaru Himeno, this card belongs to the Base Set 2, released in February 2000. It has a rarity of Uncommon and is part of the Base series. The card’s theme emphasizes its role in aerial combat and environmental hazards.
