Twineedle (Japanese: ダブルニードル Double Needle) is a damage-dealing Bug-type multi-strike move introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation V, it was the signature move of Beedrill.
Effect
Generation I
Twineedle inflicts damage, hitting the target twice per use. Each strike has a 20% chance of poisoning the target, unless the target is Poison-type. Although only the first strike can be a critical hit, the second one will deal the same amount of damage.
Twineedle will end immediately if the first strike breaks a substitute. Bide and Counter will only acknowledge the second strike of this move.
Generation II
Each strike now does damage independently, consequently enabling either of them to be critical.
In Generation II only, Twineedle can poison Poison- and Steel-type Pokémon.
Generations III and IV
Twineedle will now hit again if the first strike breaks a substitute.
Twineedle can no longer poison Poison- or Steel-type Pokémon.
Generation V
If the first strike activates the target's Focus Sash, Focus Band, or Sturdy, the second one will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. A Focus Band can still activate again to prevent fainting, but this chance is independent of the previous one.
If the target has Weak Armor, each strike will activate it.
