    PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

    Unfortunately, Gigantamax Butterfree might not be a worthwhile Pokémon to build up. It has a low attack stat, which means it’s not well built to being an offensive threat. And really, its stats are low overall for a Gigantamax Pokémon; as such, it's not really a good Pokémon to build. Especially since a lot of Pokémon resist bug-type attacks, and even for the Pokémon weak to it, you have better options, including other bug types.
