Ash's Fearow (Japanese: サトシのオニドリル Satoshi's Onidrill) is a Pokémon which Ash caught in the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga. While it also makes an appearance in the anime, Ash did not capture it.

In the manga

Ash's Fearow was one of the major alterations from the anime in Electric Tale of Pikachu. It was the first wild Pokémon Ash caught in this canon.

Fearow was a leader of a group of Spearow, which attacked and exhausted Ash's Pikachu. However, Pikachu beat Fearow with a ThunderShock, so Ash was able to catch it, turning Fearow into one of his most used Pokémon in this manga, staying with him the entire way. In a rather humorous moment, Ash attempted to have it battle against Misty at the Cerulean Gym (during which he had to get his hat back from her), but it came out with a sign around its neck saying "Sleeping. Do not disturb." Only when Ash throws its favorite food, a soy sauce-covered dumpling, at Misty does it actually do anything.

Fearow in the anime

In the first episode of the anime, Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a flock of wild Spearow. The leader of the flock evolved into Fearow at some time during Ash's journey through Kanto. When Ash returned to Pallet Town in Pallet Party Panic, this Fearow was again causing trouble, this time for a flock of Pidgey and Pidgeotto. After his own Pidgeotto became a Pidgeot, Ash attempted to capture the Fearow while riding on Pidgeot's back. Despite its weakened state, he was still unable to capture it, and left Pidgeot behind to guard against any future attacks.
