Evil Weevil was a green, black and yellow bug-like robot with a pair of lifting prongs. It reached the Semi-Finals of Series 3 only to be defeated by Hypno-Disc. In Series 4, the team equipped their updated machine Evil Weevil 2 with a hammer and painted it bronze. However, this new weaponry was no help - due to an uncharged battery, it lost in Round 1 of its Heat. Evil Weevil won the Series 3 Robotic Soccer tournament. The team was founded by ex-Panic Attack member Kevin Pritchard. However, after losing in Series 4, the team disbanded, and Pritchard returned to and took over Panic Attack in Series 7.
