Weedle (Japanese: ビードル Beedle) is a dual-type Bug/Poison Pokémon.
It evolves into Kakuna starting at level 7, who evolves into Beedrill starting at level 10.
Biology
Physiology
Weedle is a small, brown larva Pokémon with a segmented body. Weedle has dark, circular eyes, many little pink feet and a pink, round nose. Weedle has a stinger on both its tail and head. Its bright coloration is intended to warn off its enemies.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Weedle isn't very powerful, but it can spit a sticky thread to entangle its foes. It can also use one of its stingers to poison a foe.
Behavior
Weedle generally prefer to remain undisturbed. They live in colonies with their evolved forms, Kakuna and Beedrill, and will recruit them to assist in their revenge if bothered.
Habitat
Weedle can be found in forests, misty wooded areas, and grasslands. Weedle usually hide in grass and bushes, under the leaves that they eat. They are commonly found in Kanto and Johto, although they also can be encountered in Sinnoh on rare occasions.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
Weedle primarily eat leaves. They appear to prefer some leaves over others, and they can distinguish between them by smelling them with their big red proboscis, or nose. Weedle eats such a copious amount that it eats its weight in leaves every day. It has also been known to eat paper.
In the anime
Major appearances
In Challenge of the Samurai, Ash was very close to catching a Weedle. He used his newly caught Pidgeotto to battle, Weedle was knocked unconscious and when Ash was about to throw his Poké Ball, Samurai came up and asked Ash if he was a Trainer from Pallet Town. This distracted Ash from catching the Weedle, so it got away. This same Weedle later warned its kind and together, they tried to avenge its near capture by attacking Ash and company.
Casey captured a Weedle during the Bug-Catching Contest in The Bug Stops Here. She released it in accordance with Contest rules.
Minor appearances
Weedle appeared a few other times while Ash was in the Viridian Forest, such as when a number of them ate Team Rocket's cardboard tank.
A Weedle appeared in The Ultimate Test under the ownership of a trainer allowing Todd to photograph it. Due to a coloring error, this Weedle is the color of Green normally seen on a Caterpie. Despite being an error, Shiny Weedle are green in Generation II.
A Weedle appeared in The Saffron Con as a Pokémon owned by a Coordinator that was taken by Team Rocket.
A Weedle was used by one of the students of the Pokémon Trainer's School in Gonna Rule The School!.

Trivia
- Weedle is the only Pokémon incapable of learning Template:Type2 moves, if Hidden Power's inability to be a Normal move in practice is not considered in Unown's case.
- Despite being classified as the Hairy Bug Pokémon, no artwork of it depicts it having any visible hair.
- Up until Platinum, Weedle was completely incapable of dealing damage to Template:Type2 Pokémon outside of Struggle. This was because Weedle could only learn Poison Sting, which Steel-types are immune to. In Platinum onwards, Weedle can learn Bug Bite. However, Steel-types still resist moves of its type.
- Weedle, along with Caterpie and Wurmple, evolves at level 7, the lowest set level in the games (though some Pokémon can evolve via level up as early as level 2, depending on certain conditions).
- Despite most of its Generation III Pokédex entries mentioning its acute sense of smell, Weedle cannot learn Odor Sleuth.
- As of Generation V, Weedle is the only brown Template:Type2 Pokémon.
Origin
Weedle appears to be based on the larva of a bee.
Name origin
Weedle's name appears to be a misspelling of weevil, but this is not likely, considering the difference between the two. Its name is more likely a combination of worm and needle, which refers to the stingers on its body. Beedle is similar, but refers to bees instead.
