Twineedle (Japanese: ダブルニードル Double Needle) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I. It is Beedrill's signature move.
Effect
Generation I
Twineedle does damage, and has a 19.9% chance of poisoning the target. Twineedle hits twice per use. Though technically only the first hit can critical hit, each hit per use will do the same amount of damage.
Twineedle will end immediately if it breaks a Substitute. Bide and Counter will only acknowledge one hit of this move.
Twineedle can't poison a target that has a Substitute, already has a major status ailment, or is a Template:Type2.
Generation II
Same as Generation I, but a 20% chance of causing poisoning instead.
Generation III
Same as Generation II, but it cannot poison Steel- and Template:Type2s.
Generation IV
Same as Generation III, except it will continue attacking after a Substitute is broken.

Trivia
- Twineedle is the only Template:Type2 move so far that can poison. On a related note, it is the only non-Template:Type2 move to poison a target.
- Twineedle is the only move that can poison Template:Type2 Pokémon as it is a Bug-type move.
- Despite this move being a reference to bee stings, Vespiquen cannot learn this move, despite being a Bee Pokémon.
In other languages
- Spanish: Doble Ataque
