|desc={{p|Beedrill}} is one of Giovanni's main Pokémon. He caught it when it was a {{p|Weedle}} at Viridian Forest while he was a young Pokémon Trainer. Since then, Giovanni has used Beedrill as a reliable partner in many situations as a boss of Team Rocket. He notes that while he prefers to use Pokémon of his specialty type, its origins have given it a profound significance in his heart.

Beedrill debuted during Giovanni's battle with {{adv|Red}}, where it ended up being knocked out by {{DL|Red (Adventures)|Aero}}'s {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It later appeared when Giovanni came to help {{adv|Yellow}} in the battle against [[Lance]] at the [[Cerise Island]], where Giovanni used it to burst the giant bubble which Lance had been using to protect himself and his Pokémon. During the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, Giovanni used it to help him tire out {{adv|Deoxys}} so that he could catch it.

|desc={{p|Nidoking}} was one of the Pokémon used in the Viridian Gym battle but did not officially participate. Later, he was used to destroy the Gym with an Earthquake. Many years afterwards, Giovanni observed a site where Deoxys rampaged and left a gang of bikers in ruins. When one of them begged Giovanni to save his life, he promptly swatted him away, and then used Nidoking's Rock Tomb to incapacitate him and his {{p|Magmar}}.
