Common Bluebottle Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

I caught a common bluebottle! I'll put it in a rare green jar!

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  The common bluebottle is a type of swallowtail butterfly with a bright blue line running down its wings.

 They fly quite nimbly, it seems, and are thus quite difficult to catch.

 But seeing how they've been known to slurp nutrients from MUD puddles... I simply CAN'T imagine wanting to catch one myself. What awful breath!
