[edit] Appearance
Beedrill are an insect-like Pokémon with the appearance of a large wasp. Unlike a wasp however, Beedrill only have four limbs, the front-most limbs having two large, spear-like stingers. A third stinger is located on its tail end. The shiny version of a Beedrill is overall a lightgreen colour with blue eyes instead of red.
[edit] Special Abilities
All Beedrill have the ability Swarm which increases any Bug-type attacks x1.5 if the user's HP drops below 1/3 its max amount.
According to the Pokédex, Beedrill can fly at great speeds and can attack in swarms. Additionally, it's three stingers all secrete a toxic poison, with the stinger on its tail being the most venomous.
[edit] Anime
Beedrill debuted in the episode Challenge of the Samurai, where a number of Beedrill evolved from Kakuna and took Ash's Metapod.
A sort of running gag happens throughout the course of the series, where someone or multiple characters are chased by a swarm of Beedrill for disturbing their nest.
Ash owned a Beedrill for one episode in The Bug Stops Here. He caught this Pokémon during a Bug Catching Contest. It was then given to Casey, since she is a fan of yellow-black striped Pokémon. Casey is seen using this Beedrill in the episode Those Darn Electabuzz.
