[[File:Casey Beedrill.JPG|thumb|Casey's Beedrill from the anime]]
  +
Beedrill debuted in the episode ''[[IL004: Challenge of the Samurai|Challenge of the Samurai]]'', where a number of Beedrill evolved from Kakuna and took [[Ash Ketchum]]'s [[Ash's Butterfree|Metapod]].

Ash owned a Beedrill for one episode in ''[[JE045: The Bug Stops Here|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 ''[[Pokémon Special|Those Darn Electabuzz]]''.

A third stinger is located on its tail end. The shiny version of a Beedrill is a light green color with blue eyes instead of red.

Casey's Beedrill from the anime

Beedrill debuted in the episode Challenge of the Samurai, where a number of Beedrill evolved from Kakuna and took Ash Ketchum's Metapod.

A running gag throughout the course of the series features characters disturbing a Beedrill's hive and then being chased by the swarm of Beedrill.

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.
