Trivia
- There are 19 different wing designs that Vivillon can have on its wings. It ranges mainly in color and style based on what region that 3DS is registered/set. From each area, it differs based on the region's climate, continent and even the top most popular countries on Earth.
- Vivillon has the second widest variety of obtainable Pokémon Forms, having a total of 19. It is bested by Unown, which has 28 forms. (Arceus, using type plates and its Multitype ability, also has 19 forms; however, one of its forms, the ???-type form, is regarded as unobtainable, causing it to only have 18 obtainable forms.)
Etymology
Vivillon's name comes from "vivi", which is translated as "lively" and "papillon", which is "butterfly".
