Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Pidgeot seems to primarily subsist on a diet of fish 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

Ash Ketchum had a Pidgeot that he captured as a Pidgeotto early in the series. After a single battle with an aggressive 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.

In Mewtwo Strikes Back, a Pidgeot was captured and cloned by Mewtwo.

Falkner of the Violet City Gym owns a Pidgeot.

A Pidgeot was owned by Sir Aaron in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. Also, Mew transformed into a Pidgeot when it flew Ash's Pikachu and Meowth to The Tree of the World's Begining.

In the TCG

In the TCG, the Template:C version of Pidgeot has 80 HP, no retreat cost, lightning weakness, colorless type, and fighting resistance. Its attacks are Wing Attack, dealing 20 damage for two colorless energy, and Hurricane, which deals 30 damage for three colorless energy, along with the very useful/annoying (Depending on your point of view) effect of returning the defending Pokémon and all cards attached to it to your opponent's hand.

Trivia

Pidgeot originally had an extra "t" in it's name, but it was dropped.

Origin

Despite its name, its appearance and behavior do not resemble a pigeon so much as that of a bird of prey, particularly an osprey.

Name origin

Its name may just be a corruption of pigeon, but depending on how one pronounces it, the word jet may be incorporated into its name.
