The Weedle Line

bills-pokedex:

Weedle
The Hairy Bug Pokémon
Type: Poison/Bug
Official Registration #: 13
Entry: Weedle uses its sensitive and prominent proboscis to locate and separate its favorite leaves to eat from its least favorite leaves. All weedle have very specific leaf preferences, as well as acute senses of smell in order to sort leaves on the forest floor based on these preferences. If anyone finds this at all strange or unusual, the writer would like to remind his audience that humanity’s own obsession with gardening has resulted in over 7500 different types of tomato, and if you use the wrong type for sauce, your sister who possesses far more culinary talents than you will ever have will ensure that you are painfully aware of what, precisely, each of those 7500 different varieties of tomato are for.

Kakuna
The Cocoon Pokémon
Type: Poison/Bug
Official Registration #: 14
Entry: The evolved form of weedle, by battle experience. In this stage of its evolutionary line, kakuna are strictly preparing for evolution and therefore remain nearly immobile. However, it is important to note that “nearly immobile” is not the same as “actually and completely immobile,” and should you accidentally stumble onto an entire tree covered with kakuna, said kakuna will extend their poison barbs through their shells in order to remind you of what that difference is.

Beedrill
The Poison Bee Pokémon
Type: Poison/Bug
Official Registration #: 15
Entry: The evolved form of kakuna, by battle experience. Quite obviously, training a weedle to its beedrill stage takes a lot of determination and audacity. This is not only because the kakuna stage is nearly immobile, therefore requiring a trainer to exert the patience needed to help their kakuna cultivate the experience required for evolution, but also because the resulting beedrill is a fiercely territorial and aggressive creature armed with three potently venomous stingers each measuring a foot long. Trainers who wish to keep beedrill are highly advised to keep healthy stocks of antidotes, pecha berries, and whatever they feel would be best to sedate a three-foot-tall bee that can fly at one’s face at violently high speeds.

Mega Beedrill
The Poison Bee Pokémon
Type: Poison/Bug
Official Registration #: 15+
Entry: The advanced form of beedrill, via beedrillite. Mega evolution forces beedrill to sacrifice their ability to launch distance attacks for a considerable boost in speed and physical strength. To reinforce this trade-off, beedrill gains a more aerodynamic body that’s far more nimble at dodging the trees of its forest habitat than its base form, and its stingers not only grow but also multiply until each individual mega beedrill possesses five razor-sharp stingers each at least a foot long. Strangely, the leader of the Cerulean Gym did not find this as fascinating as the author did.

My beedrill and I have been together since he was a weedle, so I can usually read him pretty well. However, as of late, my friend has gotten a cutiefly, and my beedrill gets really agitated and aggressive when it’s around. Can you help explain this?

It could perhaps have something to do with the fact that beedrill eat cutiefly.

Contrary to popular belief, beedrill are not herbivores that feed off nectar or pollen. Rather, they’re carnivores that attack prey with the three stingers on its body, then drag the corpse off to their hives to feed themselves and their weedle hatchlings. While beedrill will generally attack and eat anything that’s both smaller than them and considered meat, they gravitate especially towards other bug-types pokémon. Cutiefly, being part-fairy, are a bit of a delicacy in particular.

In short, I would consider keeping your beedrill as far away from your friend’s cutiefly as possible.
