Butterfree VS Beedrill

Crazy Weavile

HAI GUYZ
The original common Bug types... Butterfree and Beedrill. Which do YOU prefer? Personally, I like Beedrill better- more streamlined shape and some actual combat ability (EDIT: well, before Butterfree got the buff in D/P, it did that better...). And no x4 Rock weak.

Butterfree. It's prettier and can learn psychic, flying, poison, bug and some leaf attacks.
 
Butterfree, because it has the second-most accurate sleep attack in the game (Compopundeyes-boosted Sleep Powder). :D And now it gets special STAB attacks, which is always nice.

(That and the part where it's my second favorite Pokémon.)
 
Butterfree, purely on the fact that it's a special attacker. I've always preffered special attackers to physical attackers. Butterfree can also learn Psychic, one of my favourite moves. Butterfree has a nicer wing design, which the lines are less jagged, and it has a nicer shiny form.

Butterfree can learn a good variety off attacks, has great accuracy for inducing the status effects paralysation, poisoning, sleep and severe poisoning. Now that there are 'special' bug moves, it is also a lot more useful.
 
Oh, it was one of the first Pokemon I ever caught, and when I battle my brother he always lost against it. It's really more of nostalgia that makes me like it over Butterfree.
 
Butterfree. Cuter, with a wide variety of skills, and I have a pathological fear of wasps, bees, and other stinging insects.
 
I don't like either that much, but I have a bit of a bond with Beedrill, because when I used to play the card game, I pwned with a Beedrill-Poisoning Deck.
 
Butterfree because it can learn psychic moves, and they look better.

I never liked the Weedle line one bit I wouldn't ever catch them if they weren't needed to complete the Pokedex.
 
Butterfree, because in the older games, I couldn't get Weedle, so I got Caterpie. And Butterfree learns Psychic attacks.
 
I like both of them for various reasons:

Butterfree is adorable, it's a special attacker, it's body is purple (my third favorite color after brown and green), and it has weird red eyes.

Beedrill is a big wasp with needles for hands, I like its cocoon pre-evo better than Butterfree's, it's cry is awesome, and it also has weird red eyes.

So I'll just go ahead and say I like Butterfree better, just because.
 
Butterfree, because of prettyness. And special-ness.

*looks at sister unevolving Metapod* Helloooooooooooooooooo? You in there? *explaining She dropped her Crystal game while it was evolving, and it never evolved. Ever.
 
Beedrill. Always liked the cooler-looking one. Butterfree is good in its own ways, but it's... a butterfly. Personally, I'd find a bee cooler.
