Strategy Overview
While Beedrill has a handful of good attributes such as a decent Attack and the ability to set up Toxic Spikes and Tailwind, its poor Speed, pitiful bulk, and bad offensive and defensive typing leave much to be desired. It is hopelessly outclassed by Qwilfish as a Toxic Spikes setter thanks to its access to Taunt, better overall stats, better typing, larger support movepool, and more useful abilities. As a suicide lead, Omastar and Lycanroc have much stronger offenses, larger Speed stats, and provide stronger support, such as two entry hazards with Omastar and access to Taunt with Lycanroc. Beedrill also faces competition as a Bug-type from Scyther and Pinsir thanks to their stronger offenses, larger bulk, and more beneficial abilities.
