Beedle first appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' and is met as a traveling merchant who sails the [[Great Sea]] on his boat, [[Beedle's Shop Ship]], where he sells items. He also has a shop where [[Link]] can buy rare items like a [[Piece of Heart]], or a [[Bottle]]. The items here are very expensive. Beedle will keep track of how many items Link buys and award him points. These points accumulate with each purchase Link makes and eventually add up to give him small discounts and rewards in the shop. Beedle says "OH!" whenever talking to him, "Thank You!" whenever buying items from him, and "Bye!" whenever leaving.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', Beedle is found in the center of [[Hyrule Town]]. He appears after the [[Gust Jar]] is used to "clean up" dust on one of the mats in the town. This version of Beedle sells a magical item known as "[[Picolyte]]" — an item which grants the user a different magical effect depending on the color.{{Ref|TMC|1769|Beedle}}

Beedle is reincarnated as a shop owner once again in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''. On his ship, he travels around the [[World of the Ocean King]], selling his wares. He has five items for sale at all times, which can consist of [[Ship Part]]s, potions, and rare [[Treasure]] which are of course sold for [[Rupee]]s. At one point in the game, Beedle is wearing a golden mask and is selling a yellow potion, a Heart Container, and a Treasure Chart, all of which are very expensive, costing over 900 Rupees each. Like the Beedle in ''The Wind Waker'', Link can gain points for buying things at his shop.

Beedle in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'' is much like the Beedle in ''Phantom Hourglass''. However, the ''Spirit Tracks'' Beedle is in a hot air balloon. He will sell [[Bomb]]s, [[Potion]]s, and Treasures to Link. The first time Link visits his hot air balloon, he will sell him the [[Bomb Bag]]. To visit his shop, Link must drive up to him and blow the [[Spirit Train]]s whistle, and then he will stop for Link. Much like in ''Phantom Hourglass'' and ''The Wind Waker'', Beedle gives membership points. Link gains one point for every ten rupees spent. After Link has acquired 500 points, he is awarded a [[Heart Container]]. Additionally, if Link takes a boy in [[Aboda Village]] to his Beedle's shop, the boy will give Link a [[Force Gem]].

Like his future incarnations, Beedle is a shop owner and sells a wide variety of very useful items, only this time, he sets up business in a floating wooden shop. In ''Skyward Sword'', Beedle has a taller and leaner physique and is wearing different clothes than in other games. After hitting the bell on the bottom of the shop with the [[Slingshot]], [[Bow]], [[Beetle (Item)|Beetle]], or [[Clawshot]]s, Link can grab onto a rope and be pulled up to the shop via a pulley mechanism.

Beedle appears once more in ''Breath of the Wild''. He can be found at many of the [[Stable]]s across [[Hyrule]], where he sells a variety of items, changing from location to location. He will also offer to buy many of Link's items, including [[Breath of the Wild Materials|Materials]], [[Breath of the Wild Armor|Armor]] and [[Breath of the Wild Food|Food]]. If Link converses with him whilst any type of Rhino Beetle is in his inventory, Beedle will be incredibly surprised, and offer to trade one of his wares for the insect; he will prioritise [[Energetic Rhino Beetle]]s over [[Rugged Rhino Beetle|Rugged]] and [[Bladed Rhino Beetle]]s.{{Unsourced}}
