Read more ↓Beedrill is a formidable Bug/Poison-type Pokémon, first introduced in Generation I as one of the original 151 Pokémon. It evolves from Kakuna, which in turn evolves from Weedle. Known for its aggressive and territorial nature, Beedrill is often depicted in swarms, fiercely defending its hive and young. Its most distinctive features are its two large stingers on its forearms and a third one on its tail, all capable of injecting potent venom. In the wild, Beedrill typically inhabits forests and wooded areas, feeding on nectar and pollen, though it's quick to attack anything it perceives as a threat. Its role in the games often involves early-game accessibility and decent offensive capabilities, while in the anime, it's frequently portrayed as a dangerous wild Pokémon that Ash and his friends must avoid or battle. Culturally, Beedrill represents the stinging insect archetype, embodying both the fear and fascination associated with wasps and bees, and is a memorable part of the original Pokémon lineup. Its design, with its sharp stingers and intense red eyes, perfectly conveys its dangerous demeanor, making it a recognizable and iconic Pokémon.
