-The RedSting can be found in the [[Hubble]] region in the past, the [[Falls Hollow]], and the [[Sanctum of the Cirrus]] in the past. It is also one of the possible forms that a [[Bad egg]] will become when hatched.

+It is unknown why that Pteryogtus's remake sprite is red instead of the artwork's green, but it is possible that [[ArtePiazza]] simply recycled the [[Scarlet scorpion]] sprite for convenience.
