Beedrill

[Zaffimitsu]

Can someone give me a good Beedrill moveset for the Battle Tower? I don't care if he isn't good or that nonsense, it's in-game anyways. I appreciate any help.

XD i actually used to have a pokecrush on Beedrill... i dunno i always thought it was kewl. it's got decent attack and speed, which are easy to notice, but now that we're in the age of D/P, its special defense can play a good role in how it is used.

Beedrill @ Choice Scarf
Adamant Nature
212 Speed/248 Attack/50 Sp. Defense
-X-Scissor
-Brick Break
-Poison Jab/Aerial Ace
-Pursuit/Payback/U-Turn

sadly, it has a very limited movepool. i'm sure there are several moves they could've made available to it, such as Stone Edge. that moveset will help him outspeed a few foes and retaliate with a sharp pierce. with its special defense, it could OHKO Gardevoir and some others like Espeon. don't be hopeful of it being a sweeper tho. it's just a little fun guy.

here's another moveset:

Beedrill @ Salac Berry
252 Attack/252 Speed/6 Sp. Def
Jolly Nature
-Endure
-Endeavor
-X-Scissor
-Brick Break

he learns endure as a Tutor Move in GBA. since he can't take much hits, you should use Endure to activate the effect of Salac Berry and to maximize the power of Endeavor.

Thanks. I'll probably be using the 1st one. The last people I talked to about this said just give up because he's bad.

ya, just lose the beedrill and pick up another similar pokemon like butterfree, thats a very reliable pokemon...

If you love Beedrill, then love will pull you through.
Also, you maybe able to pull off Agility -> *Focus Strip activates* -> Endeavor, but with a base speed of 75... it'll be hard.

But hey, you still got love, eh?


[EDIT]: Actually even with a base speed stat of 75, if a level 100 Beedrill Jolly IV31 EV252 used Agility, it's speed will end up being 546, so technically you'll be able to outrun a Speed Form Deoxys...

But with the increased number of Quick Attack-type moves in DP, I doubt the classic speed up+Endeavor combo will work.
