Beedrill (スピアー, Spear) is a creature in the Pokémon media franchise.

Origin[edit]

Beedrill is a Bug/Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It is listed as #015 in the Pokédex and known as the "Poison Bee Pokémon". Beedrill evolves from Kakuna at level 10, which evolves from Weedle at level 7. As of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Beedrill is capable of undergoing Mega Evolution.

Take Down is a Normal-type move with 90 base power and 85% accuracy. It also deals 1/4 of the damage inflicted as recoil. Beedrill can learn it via TM09 only in Generation I.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

As a Poké Ball Pokémon[edit]

Beedrill makes its first, and so far only, appearance in the Super Smash Bros. series as a Poké Ball Pokémon in Super Smash Bros. It uses the move Take Down. When Beedrill is summoned, a single Beedrill will fly off the screen with a swarm of Beedrill appearing afterwards, flying horizontally across the screen. Opponents hit by any of the Beedrill in the swarm will receive 12% damage and knockback—the initially summoned Beedrill does 18%.

Beedrill has a spawn chance of 1/12.

The sound effects part of Beedrill's summon come from the Japanese version of the Pokémon episode Challenge of the Samurai.

Beedrill did not return in any following game, but Unown attacks in a similar fashion in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
