* Even though {{t|Flying}} is a common secondary type among Bug-type Pokémon, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, [[Volcarona]] and [[Genesect]], are not Flying types. | * Even though {{t|Flying}} is a common secondary type among Bug-type Pokémon, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, [[Volcarona]] and [[Genesect]], are not Flying types. | ||

* Until Platinum, several Bug-type Pokémon, {{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}, were unable to learn any Bug-type moves. Each of them is now able to learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level, and Wormadam can learn {{m|Signal Beam}} by [[Move Tutor]]. | * Until Platinum, several Bug-type Pokémon, {{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}, were unable to learn any Bug-type moves.

* Almost all Bug-type Pokémon evolve very early, perhaps due to their low stats. In the games, one reason for this could be to give the player the opportunity of having a strong, evolved, Pokémon in the beginning of their journey in order to earn the first Gym [[Badge]]s more easily. Despite this, all but two of the very first Gyms are strong against Bug types, as they specialize in {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Flying}} types, and one that isn't, the [[Striaton City]] Gym, has a chance to specialize in {{t|Fire}} types while the [[Aspertia City]] Gym, however, does not at all. | * Almost all Bug-type Pokémon evolve very early, perhaps due to their low stats.
