Before Pentecost, a total of 11 disciples remained after Judas Iscariot's betrayal and subsequent death. Initially, Jesus had 12 disciples, but Judas's actions led to his departure from the group. After Jesus' resurrection, the remaining 11 disciples were tasked with spreading his teachings, culminating in the events of Pentecost when they received the Holy Spirit.
Only eleven disciples were filled with the holy spirit on Pentecost day. As Judas had committed suicide.

Scripture is not clear as to whether only the twelve apostles were in the upper room or whether the 120 disciples mentioned in the first chapter of Acts were all there. Some people argue one way and some people the other; however, it is not really exactly clear, in my opinion.
It originated on Pentecost 33 C.E. (A.D.), so there were about 120 disciples, that included the twelve apostles of Jesus. Jesus had many people who followed him, not just disciples. On Pentecost, 3000 more were added to the church from all walks of life.
No.Eleven of the twelve "Apostles" were from Galilee. Judas was apparently from Judea. 'Disciples', however, came (and COME) from every nation.(Acts 1:8)For starters, on Pentecost, after Jesus died, Peter and the apostles, spoke to people from many nationalities and locations, and 3,000 of them accepted Jesus Christ and were baptized as his disciples. (Acts 2:40-41)
Pentecost is celebrated 50 days after Easter.
The Holy Spirit seems to have been needed only once, to impart the powers required by an apostle. John's Gospel says that on the day of his resurrection, Jesus breathed on the apostles in the upper room, giving them the Holy Spirit. Acts of the Apostles says that the Holy Spirit came down like tongues of flame on the day of the Pentecost and sat on each of the apostles.This anomaly can be explained because the author of Actscertainly did not know of the existence of John's Gospel, while the author of John probably did not know of the existence of Acts, even though he did know of the somewhat earlier Luke's Gospel. Each sought to demonstrate that the apostles received the Holy Spirit, and each provided his own unique account.
