I can't say enough how much I'm looking forward to this episode...seeing butterfree again, I think I'm gonna cry when I see the pics ^^
You can't say that for sure. Likely yes, sure not.
Why not? We got Misty and Brock flashbacks without them appearing physically. The same may happen here, especially if they give the main focus to Ash and Caterpie. And honestly, I will be quite mad if they don't show the part where Caterpie evolves in its entirety:

I wonder how Metapod evolves. Rematch with Ursaring maybe or vs TR? Or maybe just randomly after training/bonding with Ash
Probably through bonding with Ash, which is ironic as it took 51 episodes for Swadloon to do the same.
Well, this went fr.bring the most anticipated episode, to maybe one of the least.
It isn't ironic. If something's ironic, I can at least laugh at it. It's just another showcase how the writers can't handle Ash this series.
Can't agree more. I'm starting to think that 'Butterfree' in the title isn't even referring to the old Butterfree. It seems as if Da is rehashing plot/thematical elements from all memorable OS-episodes and giving them lackluster endings.
- Zoroark: Island of Giant Pokemon - But with none of the plot (groups intermingling to find their friends again) or themes (pokideology) that made the episode stand out.
- Croconaw: Squirtle Squad
- Butterfree: Butterfree-rehash
- Jirachi: Ghost of Maiden Peak? Would probably give the Jirachi-episode too much credit anyway.
- You tell me..
A rehash doesn't have to literally be the exact same things happening. Obvious he wasn't going to catch another butterfree and happen to release 15 episodes later. It's a rehash because ash bonds with a caterpie, and it evolves into a metapod by stringshoting a threatening bigger pokemon. Then it will evolve into its aspiring butterfree form and it will have an emotional leave of ash, which is that original shot we saw.
So any similarities to an episode count as a rehash?
Ash, Iris and Cilan walk in every single BW episode, I can't believe the writers are so ridiculous enough to rehash that, they should ride bikes instead.

Wow, way to be that guy. If there are sequential events very similar or even nearly resemble events of a previous episode in a blatant manner, that is rehashing. Things like in honeymitsu, TRio acting as dake ticket venders trying to get the gang to on a boat. In scare in the air they did exact same, but for a blimp.
If they were even trying to not make this look like a rehash, they wouldn't have used the Caterpie line in the first place.
