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.
