Biology

Physiology

Pidgeot bares striking resemblance to Pidgeotto; however, Pidgeot is noticeably larger than its pre-evolution. Its plumage tends to be larger and glossier. The feathers on its head-crest are nearly as long as its body, and are yellow and red. Its tail feathers are red colored. Like its previous evolutions, its underbelly is a tan color, and it has black markings around its eyes.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Pidgeot is a powerful flier, capable of creating whirlwinds strong enough to bend trees. At maximum velocity it can reach speeds of Mach 2 if it accelerates for long enough, which is incredibly rare. It has keen eyes that allow it to see Magikarp from a distance of 3300 feet in the air.

Behavior

Pidgeot are normally calm and confident in their abilities. It has many powerful attacks, and its plumage is often described as beautiful, making it a popular choice for skilled trainers. Pidgeot may also spread its wings widely to intimidate enemies.

Habitat

Forest Pokémon

Pidgeot typically dwell in forests with thick growth and large trees. It can most likely be found in Kanto and Johto.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Pidgeot seems to primarily subsist on a diet of Bug-type and Water-type Pokémon which it fishes out of the water using its high speed and keen senses. However, like all Pokémon, it is also capable of surviving by eating apples and Berries.

In the anime

Major appearances

In Bound for Trouble, wild Pidgeot that were twice their normal size appeared. Their size was due to there being excessive quantities of food on one of the Orange Islands. One of these oversized Pidgeot snatches up Meowth and Pikachu when they got tethered together.

In A Staravia is Born!, a wild Pidgeot helps Ash and his friends to rescue some Flying-type Pokémon from Team Rocket.

Ash's Pidgeot

Ash Ketchum had a Pidgeot that he captured as a Pidgeotto early in his journey during Ash Catches a Pokémon. In Pallet Party Panic!, the same Spearow Ash had thrown a rock at in the first episode returned with its flock, but it had evolved into a Fearow. The flock attacked Ash, so Pidgeotto evolved into Pidgeot to battle Fearow. After Pidgeot defeated Fearow, Pidgeot left Ash's party to watch over a local flock of Pidgey and Pidgeotto. Ash promised to return for it someday, but so far he has not kept that promise.

Falkner's Pidgeot

Falkner of the Violet City Gym owns a Pidgeot. He uses it in his gym battle against Ash.

Other

A Pidgeot belonging to Rudy appeared in Misty Meets Her Match.

A Pidgeot was owned by Sir Aaron in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. Also, Mew transformed into a Pidgeot in the movie.

One is also owned by the Coordinator Solidad.

Minor appearances

In Mewtwo Strikes Back, a Pidgeot owned by Corey was one of the Pokémon captured and cloned by Mewtwo. It was referred to as a Pidgeotto due to a dubbing error. The Pidgeot clone was seen again in Mewtwo Returns.

In Hoenn Alone, an Officer Jenny used a Pidgeot to help locate Ash's Pikachu after it was stolen by Team Rocket.

In Riding the Winds of Change, Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy use many Pokémon, including a Pidgeot, to blow the Gligar away from the city.
