The complete Pokemon RBY pokedex, part 2

Pokémon Name: Weedle
Type: Bug/Poison
Classification: Hairy Pokemon
Pokédex Number: 013
Ability: Shield Dust – User isn't affected by any secondary effects from pponent's damaging moves
Dream World ability: Run Away – Always successful at running away from wild Pokemon
Useful Attacks: Poison Sting
Location Found:
Diamond/Pearl: Route 204 (South) with LeafGreen inserted
Platinum: Route 204 (South) and Eterna Forest with LeafGreen inserted

Everything we said about Caterpie stands here too. Minor nuances on either side, but overall the same experience while evolving. Weedle does start with Poison Sting though, so that's a nice incentive.
