JAPANESE BUTTERFREE CARD CHECKLIST

[11 CARDS] 1997 JUNGLE TO 2023

Butterfree skipped the 1996 Base Set — its first Japanese card came in Pokémon Jungle in March 1997. Since then it has had Neo and e-Card holos, a Gym Leader card, a Frontier Brain card and a Gigantamax VMAX. These 11 are the ones worth finding. The 4 marked ★ are the ones to look for first: the 1997 Jungle original, the 2000 Crossing the Ruins holo, the VMAX rainbow 079/070 and the 151 Master Ball mirror 012/165.
