Beedrill · Scarlet & Violet 151, what to know.
About the Beedrill card
Numbered 15 of 207 in Scarlet & Violet 151, released in September 2023, Beedrill is a Rare, a Stage 2 Grass-type carrying 130 HP.
It evolves from Kakuna, so Beedrill is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Printed on the card, the Beedrill Pokédex entry reads: "May appear in a swarm. Flies at violent speeds, all the while stabbing with the toxic stinger on its rear."
About Beedrill in the Pokémon world
The Bug-Poison final form of the Weedle line. Three drill-tipped stingers and a wasp silhouette. Notoriously strong in early tournament play before defensive Pokémon caught up. Base Set Beedrill is a rare non-holo. Jungle reprinted it. Both have steady collector demand, with the Base Set print being meaningfully scarcer in high grade.
What is Beedrill worth?
Beedrill is a non-holo Rare. In Scarlet & Violet 151, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Beedrill trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Beedrill before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
On Beedrill, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Beedrill in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Beedrill
For Beedrill, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Beedrill rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
