 ==Trivia==
 * In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Paras's name was originally "Parasyte". The name was probably abandoned because it was also the official English name of an {{wp|Parasyte|extremely graphic Japanese horror comic}}.
-* Paras is the only Pokémon with a total [[EV yield]] of 1 to evolve at a fixed [[level]] directly into a Pokémon with an EV yield of 3, {{p|Parasect}}. In [[Generation II]], the 1 EV yielding {{p|Slowpoke}}, who previously only evolved at Level 37 into the 2 EV yielding {{p|Slowbro}}, gained the ability to evolve directly into the 3 EV yielding {{p|Slowking}} when traded with a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}, and in [[Generation IV]] the 1 EV yielding {{p|Nosepass}} was given the 3 EV yielding direct evolution {{p|Probopass}} when gaining a level in [[Mt. Coronet]].
 * In [[Generation I]], {{t|Poison}} attacks are super effective against {{t|Bug}}, making Paras and {{p|Parasect}} the only Pokémon to have ever had three 4× weaknesses or double weakness to Poison.
 * Due to the Ability {{a|Dry Skin}}, Paras and {{p|Parasect}} are also the only Pokémon to have a 5× weakness (to {{t|Fire}}).
