The agrias butterfly[nb 1] is a bug in the Animal Crossing series. The agrias butterfly first appeared in Animal Crossing: Wild World and has appeared in all subsequent games. It is different than other butterflies in the game, using speed and agility to avoid being caught in a net, while others fly slowly.
In the games that the agrias butterfly appears in, it is a rare bug that the player can encounter, and can be found flying around flowers. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it can be caught from mid spring to the start of fall.
