Mega Beedrill Best Nature and Moveset for Story

Adamant or Jolly

Nature Stat Changes
Adamant Attack, SpAtk
Jolly Speed, SpAtk

Since Beedrill is a Fast Physical Attacker, its best Nature is either Adamant or Jolly to boost its Attack or Speed further, while reducing its Special Attack stat.

Alternative Natures

Nature Stat Changes
Lonely Attack, Defense
Naughty Attack, SpDef

You can also give Beedrill either Lonely or Naughty nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.

Keep in mind that giving Beedrill any of the above two natures will increase the damage it receives, making it less ideal for Competitive Play and harder post-game content.

Use Mints to Change Natures

Mint Usage

If your Beedrill has a different Nature than the ones we recommend above, you can use a Mint to change its Nature.
Mints Locations and How to Change Nature

Best Beedrill Moveset for the Story

Move Type Cooldown
Poison Jab Pokemon Poison Type Icon 8
X-Scissor Pokemon Bug Type Icon 8
Swords Dance Pokemon Normal Type Icon 15
Drill Run Pokemon Ground Type Icon 8

We recommend the moves Drill Run, Poison Jab, X-Scissor, and Swords Dance when using Beedrill during the main story.
