Twineedle is an extremely useless move. It can only be learned by Beedrill and has a Base power of 25 x2, if it hits twice. With STAB, its 37.5 x2. Lets calculate.
37.5 x 2 = 75 Base Power
Silver Wind has a Base Power of 60, 90 with STAB. That is already more than Twineedle's Base Power. Now, to finish it off, if we count the effects, Twineedle's Poison effect and Silver Wind's raise all stats effect, which one is better? Silver Wind of course.

Twin Needle sucks, it just does, horrible move, without STAB silver wind almost beats it with STAB silver wind destroys twin needle, dont use twin needle unless you have a bad moveset and you need it.

There are way better bug moves than this.
I agree with everybody else. Twin Needle may be a good bug move, but there are better ones. It just deals 50 damage anyway. There are a whole lot of moves that are better and do more damage than Twin Needle. It won't also hit the second time either. But if you like it, stick to it. It might come in handy against Pschic Pokemon.

The real question is, what are you using bug moves for in the first place?

To be strong against both Psychic and Dark.
Twin Needle is a strong move maybe, but only one pokemon can learn it, and that pokemon is weak, a Beedrill.
Signal Beam
Silver Wind
Megahorn
Hidden Power Bug
These are all better moves and can be learned by 2 or more pokemon.

But its the second way to poison a steel or poison pokemon,plus megahorn is over powered and silver wind has too low pp
Even that Silver Wind has low PP, it is way too much better than Twin Needle. Silver Wind can raise all your stats, what does Twin Needle do?
And, as I said, only Beedril learns it which is a weak pokemon with weak movepool, Twin Needle maybe is just better than Leech Life.

Ramdom psychic/dark pokemon used subsitute!
(P.S beedrill is the only pokemon that learns twineedle)
[EDITED] Oh yeah! Pin missle >: (
But I was trying to say twineedle can break subsitutes and it also gives a chance to poison victims (after the hitting the second time).

But how often is 32.5 base power from a 80 base attack-pokemon enough to break a sub? Very rarely. If you're breaking a sub and damaging, bonemerang or sometimes rock blast is the way to go. Twineedle really isn't much of a subbreaker. Or good move. And Beedrill isn't much of a subbreaker. Or good pokemon.
