If the second episode of pokemon taught me anything, it's that electric mice will save me from swarms of beedrills.
I thought they were birds :P
They were. It was a flock of Spearow or Fearow. (Can't remember which evolution, it's been too long. Might've been both.)
Didn't he zap some Beedrill at some point, too? I don't know if it would work as well against non-pokemon wasps, though.
In the anime, Ash Ketchum owned a Metapod that evolved from a Caterpie when Ash sent it out, and it took down both James's Koffing and Jessie's Ekans by himself using String Shot and Tackle.[92] Metapod was first sent out in a battle against Samurai, and managed to defeat his Pinsir despite only being able to use Harden. Samurai decided to send his own Metapod out against Ash's; neither could attack, and both had to sit stationary and keep hardening. This was interrupted by a swarm of Beedrill that snatched Ash's Metapod away when he forgot to pick it up before running off. Ash found it with a hive of Kakuna. Metapod, seeing a Beedrill about to attack Ash, leapt up and took the blow, breaking the Beedrill's stinger and getting a large gash in its shell. Metapod then evolved into Butterfree and stopped all the Beedrill with a Sleep Powder attack.[93]

so, I guess I need a metapod to save me.
In my experience, those things only look out for themselves. I wouldn't trust one to evolve for you.

sorry that your metapods only knew harden, mine were awesome with tackle.
I had one my first game ever, and it missed with tackle every single time. And then it wouldn't listen to me when it evolved.

For the Butterfree, yeah. I mean, I was just trying to keep it alive, but it insisted on loafing around all the time. Like making me mad was more important than avoiding massive pain and injury, which I guess I have to admire on some level.
Returning to the topic, maybe you should just use a force field.

Speaking of Beedrills, the Twineedle move was the last move that I noticed it existed. Like, 5 years after start playing, a Beedrill used Twineedle on me and I was like "WTH!? is that a secret move or something!?"
P.S: Bug-types on first generation didn't get to me, except all-mighty Butterfree

Speaking about beedrills, they seems to run into those all the time, but as far as I recall most of the time they just run like hell.
they're bees with drills for hands. What's not scary about this?
Spoiler:
Cool pic, I didn't say it was cowardly or whatever you are implying there, I just stated a fact. Meaning a pikachu probably isn't the most effective weapon against bees.

fair enough, as long as you're not trying to deny you'd run from em too.
