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

In Super Smash Bros.

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

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. A couple of seconds later, a swarm of Beedrill will fly horizontally across the screen. Any character that makes contact with Beedrill will take damage, excluding the summoner.

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

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