Butterfree Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Butterfree #2 is one of the earliest holo slots in EX FireRed & LeafGreen, a Kanto-focused expansion released on August 30, 2004 that tied the EX era back to the Game Boy Advance remakes of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
Artist
This holo was illustrated by Atsuko Nishida, one of Pokémon’s most historically important artists and character designers, giving the card an extra layer of collector appeal beyond its gameplay text.
Card History
Its Poké-Body, Sooth Dust, is famous among TCG trivia fans because Bulbapedia notes the English name appears to be a likely mix-up for “Soothe Dust,” making this card memorable for more than just its artwork.
In-Game
The card’s attacks, Whirlwind and Gust, are directly based on moves Butterfree can learn in the video games, which helps this card feel especially faithful to Butterfree’s in-game identity as an early-route status and utility Pokémon.
Card History
Butterfree carries huge nostalgia with collectors because Ash’s Butterfree starred in the iconic farewell episode “Bye Bye Butterfree,” one of the anime’s most remembered emotional moments.
