In the anime, Pidgeotto played a role as one of Ash Ketchum's Pokémon. It participated in the Gym battles against Brock and Misty, was frequently used for breaking Team Rocket's Meowth-shaped balloon, and was the only one of Ash's Pokémon at the time, save some of his numerous Tauros, not to participate in the Pokémon League in Kanto.
