Giovanni's Beedrill (Japanese: サカキのスピアー Sakaki's Spear) is Giovanni's starter Pokémon in the Pokémon Adventures manga. He is level 70.
History
Red, Green & Blue arc
Prior to the start of the series, Giovanni caught Beedrill when he was a Weedle at Viridian Forest when he was a young Pokémon Trainer. Sometime after this he evolved into a Kakuna and then into Beedrill. Since then, Giovanni has used Beedrill as a reliable partner in many situations as the boss of Team Rocket. He notes that while he prefers to use Pokémon of his specialty type, his origins have given him a profound significance in his heart.
Beedrill first appeared in Golly, Golem!, being used in Giovanni's Gym battle against Red. After Giovanni's Golem defeated Red's Snor, he sent out Beedrill to corner Red with his stinger. Having Red trapped, Giovanni took the time to explain that he had read through each and every one of Red's decisions, ensuring that he would win. Asking Red to give up, Giovanni was surprised as Red released Aero from behind himself. Aero then attacked with Hyper Beam, defeating Beedrill with a single hit.
Yellow arc
In The Beedrill All and End All, Beedrill was used in Giovanni's battle against Lance at Cerise Island. Due to Lance surrounding himself and his Pokémon in an impenetrable bubble, Giovanni rolled Beedrill's Poké Ball underneath the main bubble. Beedrill then pierced the bubble with Twineedle, dropping Lance into the middle of a String Shot net made by Yellow's Kitty and entangling him. Beedrill then used his stinger to hold Lance at bay while Giovanni interrogated him. Despite this, Lance soon revealed that he had lured Giovanni into the center of the island on purpose in order to use his Earth Badge to activate his final plan.
FireRed & LeafGreen arc
In It Takes Patience, Knowledge and a Really Quick Beedrill, Beedrill was used to help Giovanni capture Deoxys. Using his Agility, Beedrill quickly backed Deoxys into a corner, causing its Delta Shield to quickly lose energy. Thanks to this, Giovanni's Aggron was then able to break the shield with Brick Break, allowing Giovanni to capture it.
Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire arc
Beedrill reappeared in Omega Alpha Adventure 5 during a flashback taking place at the end of the Ruby & Sapphire arc. Blaise revealed to Amber how he had seen Giovanni taking the gems formed from the shattered Red and Blue Orbs, and when he had intended to take them back, Giovanni had sensed his presence and sent out his Beedrill. He did not order him to attack however, as Blaise had retreated, having realized that he'd stand no chance against Giovanni.
In PAORAS17, Beedrill appeared alongside Giovanni aboard his airship. In PAORAS20, Beedrill was revealed to be able to Mega Evolve. Giovanni used his Mega Evolution to reveal that the meteoroid headed for Hoenn may be housing a Pokémon inside of it, since Mega Evolution can only be used in battle with another Pokémon. In PAORAS21, Beedrill helped to assist in stopping the Grand Meteor Delta.
Personality and characteristics
Being Giovanni's first Pokémon, he and Beedrill have developed a strong bond that has lasted for years and he is often seen standing beside Giovanni. Despite not being Giovanni's specialty type, he prefers to use Beedrill, as he gives him a profound significance in his heart. He is fairly strong and is often used in Giovanni's battles, primary as a way to pin down his opponents.
