Beautifly

Beautifly in the anime

In Seeing is Believing, May's Silcoon evolved into a Beautifly, and it went on to compete in many Pokémon Contests throughout her Hoenn journey before being left at the Petalburg Gym. In All Things Bright and Beautifly!, Janet's Beautifly won the Rustboro Ribbon and inspired May to become a Coordinator.

Beautifly's cards by era

Beautifly debuted in Ruby and Sapphire as a Holo Rare illustrated by Hajime Kusajima, followed by POP Series 1 and Deoxys. Diamond and Pearl and Platinum continued its run, then Dragons Exalted and Roaring Skies carried it through the Black and White and XY eras. Lost Thunder followed in Sun and Moon and Lost Origin in Sword and Shield, before Ascended Heroes gave it both an Uncommon and an Illustration rare in the Mega Evolution era.
