Adrian's Weepinbell

**Adrian's Weepinbell** (Japanese: **エイドリアンのウツドン** *Eidorian's Utsudon*) is the only Pokémon that Adrian is known to have.

## **New Era**

### **Indigo Challenge**

Weepinbell first appeared as a Bellsprout, when Adrian and Adriana decided to challenge Dwayne to a battle, pitting Bellsprout and Adriana's Koffing against Dwayne's Pidgey. Koffing's Sludge attack blinds Pidgey, but Pidgey uses Gust on himself to blow the sludge away from his eyes. After regaining his sight, Pidgey dodges both Koffing's Sludge and Bellsprout's Razor Leaf before going into a Quick Attack. Bellsprout avoids the attack by using Double Team, forcing Pidgey to come to a sudden stop. Koffing fires a Smog attack, which Pidgey splits with his wings before dodging multiple Sludge attacks and Bellsprout's Vine Whip. Despite soaring high into the sky, both Bellsprout and Koffing are able to keep up with Pidgey. Pidgey tries to hit Koffing with Gust, but misses and is defeated.

Dwayne recalls Pidgey and in a final attempt, Dwayne sends out Caterpie, which only amuses Adrian and Adriana. Bellsprout and Koffing attack and Caterpie cowers, but Dwayne orders him to use String Shot. The attack completely incapacitates Koffing before Caterpie damages Bellsprout with Bug Bite. Caterpie Tackles Koffing, knocking it into Bellsprout and taking them both out.

He was shown to have evolved when Adrian and Adriana battled Dwayne and Natalya in a Double Battle, pitting Weepinbell and Weezing against Dwayne's Roselia and Natalya's Beedrill. The battle between the twins, and Dwayne and Natalya ensues as the twins call for Weepinbell and Weezing to use Poison Powder and Sludge Bomb, but while the dodge the Sludge Bomb attack, they are both engulfed within the Poison Powder. However, it has no effect due to both Roselia and Beedrill being part Poison-types. Dwayne and Natalya call for their own battle combination. Roselia uses Petal Dance while Beedrill uses X-Scissor, and both attacks successfully connect, although Weepinbell and Weezing suffer only moderate damage.

Weepinbell then uses Vine Whip and begins squeezing Roselia, but Beedrill stops the attack by using Fury Attack onto Weepinbell's vines, hurting it and forcing it to recall its vines back. Weezing then uses Gyro Ball, but Roselia's Petal Dance traps Weezing within a vortex of petals, and when Weepinbell tries to use Slam on Roselia, Beedrill attacks with X-Scissor, sending Weepinbell back. Then, Roselia slams Weezing down with the vortex atop of Weepinbell, and the impact knocks out both Weezing and Weepinbell at once, giving Dwayne and Natalya the victory.

When Adrian and Adriana kidnapped Dwayne to prevent him from battling Lagi at the Indigo Plateau Conference in their plot to get him disqualified, Weepinbell and Weezing are used to attack Dwayne as soon as he escaped from the twins's hideout. Dwayne asks them to leave him alone, but they refuse, saying that they'd never been embarassed as much as Dwayne embarassed them, and vow to make his life a living hell until they grow tired of "playing" with him. Dwayne has his Wartortle attack Weepinbell and Weezing with Rapid Spin, and sends both Pokémon crashing onto their Trainers, and Dwayne and Wartortle take this opportunity to run away back to the Indigo Plateau.

Adrian and Adriana return a second time with bicycles onto a road, and Dwayne has Wartortle attack, but before Wartortle can fire any attack, Weepinbell attacks with Razor Leaf, and Dwayne recalls the injured Wartortle. They hop off the bicycles and prepare for another battle, but Dwayne summons Pidgeot to use Gust to knock them off their feet, before climbing atop of Pidgeot and asking him to fly him towards the arena. However, Weepinbell's Vine Whip wraps around Pidgeot's feet, and drags him back down, injuring his wing in the process. Dwayne then summons the rest of his Pokémon and asks them to deal with the twins, and Dwayne's Pokémon all use their strength and attacks to defeat the twins and their Pokémon, sending them rolling off the cliff into the forest below.

## **Personality and Characteristics**

Weepinbell is an obedient and loyal Pokémon, following Adrian's orders without question, regardless of their ethics and morals. While being a somewhat competent battler, Weepinbell is fairly weak, never being capable of defeating any of Dwayne's Pokémon whenever they are healthy, even when faced with a type advantage, with his only victory over any of his Pokémon being against an exhausted Pidgey.
