== In the video games == Caterpie are featured in the Pokémon video game series. Originally in Japanese, but later translated into other languages, the games have sold over 143 million copies worldwide.<ref>"[http://web.archive.org/web/20050314021722/http://www.time.com/time/asia/magazine/99/1122/pokemon6.fullinterview1.html The Ultimate Game Freak: Interview with Satoshi Tajiri]", ''TimeAsia.com'' URL Accessed [[July 12]], [[2006]] ([[Waybacked]]).</ref> Caterpie are one of the first few Pokémon found in several ''Pokémon'' video games, and, just as real caterpillars are the fastest-growing animals in our world, caterpillar-like Pokémon evolve into their secondary and final forms faster than any others. Evolution in the Pokémon universe is a type of metamorphic change, usually caused by gaining experience in battle. Caterpie are found in the Viridian Forest in [[Kanto]], and in the Ilex Forest in [[Johto]]. As a Bug type, Caterpie are vulnerable to Fire, Flying and Rock types and are resistant to Grass, Ground and Fighting types. In ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'', they are vulnerable to Poison types. All Pokémon have specific stat-ratings of the qualities, such as power, speed, and vitality, which help them in battles. All ratings can be improved by certain costly items available in the game.<ref> [http://guides.ign.com/guides/496231/page_3.html List of Power-up Items], ''IGN.com''.</ref> Caterpie's statistics are low, and they do not learn any new attacks before they evolve into [[Metapod]] upon reaching level 7. Its battle cry is just like [[Goldeen]]'s due to space constraints on the original two games.
