* Ledyba can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Spinarak}}. Both of them are {{type|Bug}} {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}. Ledyba is exclusive to [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Silver]] and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|SoulSilver]] while Spinarak is exclusive to [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Gold]] and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold]]. Ledyba is [[matutinal]] while Spinarak is [[nocturnal]] in said games. Additionally, their rarity is also reversed, with Ledyba being more common in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|Pokémon LeafGreen]], and Spinarak in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|Pokémon FireRed]]. Both were also added to the expanded {{safari|Hoenn}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, both can only be obtained by breeding their evolved forms in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl]], {{v2|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Black, and White]], and both Pokémon have had their {{pkmn|Egg}} designs revealed. Additionally, in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|White 2]] its evolved form swarms on {{rt|22|Unova}} while Spinarak's evolved form does so in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2]].

* Despite its {{pkmn|category}}, Ledyba's five spots are neither star-shaped nor are they arranged in a typical star pattern.
* Ledyba's {{pkmn|category}} in most languages including English is mistranslated from Japanese's {{tt|いつつぼし ''itsutsuboshi''|five spots}}, as 星 ''hoshi'', while literally meaning "star", is the term used to refer to a ladybug's spots.
* Ledyba could not learn any {{type|Bug}} or {{type|Flying}} moves until Generation III. Therefore, a Ledyba in Generation II could not receive [[same-type attack bonus|STAB]] unless it possessed the appropriate {{m|Hidden Power}}.
