You cannot catch a Butterfree, so to get one, you will have to evolve a metapod
You can catch a caterpie or metapod at the national park north of goldenrod city. After you catch the caterpie evolve it to a Metapod and then evolve it to a Butterfree.
neither of them is better, they are both the same, but in diamond, you catch dialga, and in pearl, you catch palkia, and you can catch different Pokemon in each game for example: you can catch this Pokemon in diamond, but not pearl but: you can catch this different Pokemon in pearl, but not diamond
You can catch makuhita in the fighting area in Pokemon diamond
You can't catch a wild butterfree in Pokémon fire red. You have to catch either a Caterpie or Metapod and evolve them. Caterpie evolves at level 7 and Metapod evolves at level 10. Have fun! :)
