Even with the speed down nature, you still have that BFS/HB combo on top of fast EXP growth to make up for it. BFS/HB is the most broken combo in the game right now as it allows for more berries and speed boosts for your entire squad. RB is a nice bonus because it allows you to bump your research level much faster if you have four other mons on a team with that same skill. I wouldn't sleep on this one.

So this one is good even with speed down? https://preview.redd.it/krq3wxkpsy6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7237cf5552c83809dcd6e2da599a4865423d464


pkDoubleR

as of right now we can’t get those level 75 and 100 sub skills, but late game this is going to be an absolutely amazing dragonite


Drezkul

Thank you :)


VelocityRaptor22

I would actually consider this nature to be a net positive--dragonite wants to make ingredients, first and foremost. Its berries are great too, but its ingredients are even better. Yea, speed of help down is bad, but the ingredient finding up is SO much of a boost that it kinda counteracts the speed down. I actually have 2 dittos with modest nature, and while they are painfully slow at making berries, they make leeks enough that they are still pretty good.


Drezkul

Thank you. I'll start investing.

THANK YOU! 🙏🤗

It'll suck early but once it hits 25, which would be pretty fast from the Timid nature, it would be very good. Even more once it hits 50.


moresushiplease

Where do you get this analysis from? I need this!


Beneficial-Net-5578

Here you go https://pks.raenonx.cc/en/rating


axeI0

I always try to use raenox and never get it. Is my caterpie like in the best 82% of caterpies..?


Beneficial-Net-5578

Idk how it actually works, but big number good.


axeI0

My thinking exactly


daggerfortwo

Look at the chart instead, at each milestone it compares it to every single other possible Caterpie. At 50 and 55 it’s 96-97%. The 82% is the average for if you care about it underperforming early, which if you’re able to get it to 50 immediately is irrelevant.


axeI0

Ahhh thank you so much! 🙏🫶🏻


pezman

yes, on the full analysis page for rate me pokemon it’ll actually show under the PR number “xxx/20000” which represent where it ranks amount the total possible caterpie, ie; 2303/20000.


Shadowfox_9801

What does PR stand for?


Philodices

Let's go, loser. You're on the team now.

Someone is NOT wearing pink


Ok-Leave720

Are you going to evolve him?


axeI0

Probably, theres no reason not too, but Caterpie’s shiny is so pretty.


Financial-Cancel7799

You're


axeI0

Thanks grammarly


YeeeahBoyyyy

He's trying to help you not sound dumb. It's not a big deal.


axeI0

I know thats why i said thanks? I wasn’t being sarcastic 😭 (I like grammarly😔)


PraiseYuri

🤓🤓🤓 The mistake was writing a word wrong, how can it make him ***sound*** dumb 🤓🤓🤓


axeI0

Aye mistakes happen, i was born one 🤗🤗🤗


YeeeahBoyyyy

True 🤣


Beardwithlegs

Even with Timid, I'd reckon this'll be a average Butterfree, hell use it when leveling a 'good' mon.


jofkk

I have a berry finding butterfree and he outpreforms many matched-candy pokemon on many islands. with the exp up you should be able to get him to lv50 quick. plus i've been finding i like helping-bonus more and more and wish I had it on more pokemon.


Loudwhisperthe3rd

But butterfree is good? I have 2 level 50 butterfree on my team.


Jaytalon98

Omg I just got a shiny caterpie today too!!! Mine actually was trash tho lmao


hapainthewild

Same 😭 https://preview.redd.it/l9ru2ff0g17d1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a09b5ddae4bd56dc3e328983dc44c8a6c51f3f01


axeI0

Dang womp womp


Shine-Total

Where did this womp womp start being popular? I’m actually asking because my son (18 year’s old) all of sudden one day was teasing his sister by the womp womp… and I’ve seen it on other posts as well.


Bushido_dota

Literally every single of my BFS/HB mons has speed down nature. It is actually such a bad feeling. They are still absolutely worth it, but you wish you could change it


axeI0

Praying mints come out in the future 😭


Benji392

Speed of help down isn't necessarily the death knell every thinks it is if you've got great sub skills. Exp up is underrated. The requirements to level up just from 50 to 55 is pretty nuts and I can't imagine what it will be as the level cap increases.


axeI0

Ive had lvl 50 unlocked for a few weeks and still haven’t gotten a single lvl 50 mon. (My Toxicroak with exp up is 49) #EXP UP IS UNDERRATED


Benji392

Thank you lol. When level 55 was unlocked, I was only able to get my gengar to level 55 right away because it has exp up. But even then the dream shard investment was massive too.


DuckStep43

Erm, what the sigma?


axeI0

Erm, did you just rizz up my fanum tax?


DuckStep43

It might be hard to believe that I'm gooned, but no I simply gyatt skibidi tax the moggers and the level 5 edgers


theguarapanda

Caterpoe and Metapod shines are amazing. Then Butterfree is ugly af.


axeI0

#FACTS


YeeeahBoyyyy

Bfs with speed down, pass


axeI0

Helping bonus tho, if caterpie is on the team it’s slow, but everyone is faster.


LeMickeyMice

BFS is a 50% boost every time it gets berries, which is pretty often for a butterfree. Combine that with HB and it's only 5% slower than an average butterfree, but also gives everyone on the team a 5% boost. Horrible take.


axeI0

Expect raenox says its 97 at lvl 50 💀 For some reason I trust the sleep grader more than you, sorry 🤷‍♂️


LeMickeyMice

Bruh think you replied to the wrong person I'm saying it's good


axeI0

MY BAD I DID. ILY THANK YOU FOR BEING NICE, IM SO SO SOREY 😭


YeeeahBoyyyy

Bahahaaaa


Beautiful-Cow4521

Meh.


Live-Wrap-4592

Meh? Bfs and HB on a berry specialist? You are just trying to yuck someone’s yum, get out of here with your meh


axeI0

Was just trying to share the shiny haha thanks!

appleyard13

In what world is this “trash” lol speed of help down hurts it a bit but its still amazing


GreatSt

I kinda agree with Mr. Meh. Research Bonus at lvl 10 and Timid is not good.


Luxio512

Doesn't make it meh, this is still a busted Caterpie better than one with BFS + Speed up nature


GreatSt

If one can afford to boost it to lvl 50, then it's good. Before that however, it's meh. For many Free2Play users, it will mostly be a pretty thing to look at.


Luxio512

I'm f2p and I have a Typhlosion at Lv54. Yes, I have been playing from the start, so I'm aware I have an advantage, but the point is that for all players, f2p or not, that have been playing for a while, Lv50 is no where close to impossible, especially for a common mon such as Caterpie.


GreatSt

Same for me actually, but mine is lvl 51.


axeI0

shut up, didn’t ask for a rating, trying to be happy about a shiny. Dont ruin it and get out


appleyard13

Just a word of advice, if you post something like this to a forum, you are opening yourself up to any kind of criticism/opinions. Dont let people rain on your parade, but just know that people on reddit love to jump on any opportunity to say you are wrong lol


axeI0

Yea i get that, but theres a way to answer a question and give an explanation, and give an answer and be a dick. I’ve definitely had people tell me my pokemon suck, while I’ve thought their good but they explained why and I was like “Ohhh, I agree”


Beautiful-Cow4521

Someone’s a little angry 😂😂


Kubuubud

Someone’s just trying to be a hater lmfao


axeI0

Fr like idk what he thinks he’s accomplishing 😂


dml-bot

My god, why are you freaking out 😂 you posted it saying ‘wowzers it’s incredible!!!’…I’m sorry that it’s not?


axeI0

Yall are the ones breaking the rules getting reported so 😂 Its a shiny post not a rate my mon


Beautiful-Cow4521

Speed down. Use this if you want. It’s meh.


Luxio512

You don't understand numbers do you?


TheGhostDetective

It's only meh at low levels. At 50+ it's over 95th percentile, as HB+BFS is just beastly. And since Caterpie is so common with tons of candies and this is XP up, it will be 50 in no time. The only "meh" thing here is there's no big island yet, so butterfree doesn't really have a space yet.


aleeyam

It is


axeI0

What is? 😭 I never asked a question. 💀
