is the second attack name a reference to ash’s butterfree, or am i seeing connections where there are none?

Not only is it likely an anime reference (EP021, Bye Bye Butterfree), it’s a straightforward 1:1 translation from the Japanese text, which is also referencing the anime episode’s title which was a straightforward 1:1 translation as well.
Incidentally, Butterfree’s name is the same in Japanese, making this three instances of linguistic parity. Likely made the localization of this attack pretty easy, lol.
Of course, I suppose one could split hairs about the hyphenation :U
