Pidgey (Japanese: ポッポ Poppo) is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Pidgeotto starting at level 18, which evolves into Pidgeot starting at level 36.

Biology

Pidgey is a small, plump-bodied avian Pokémon. It is primarily brown with a cream-colored face, underside, and flight feathers. On top of its head is a short crest of three tufts. The center crest feathers are brown and the outer two tufts are cream-colored. Just under its crest are its narrow eyes which have white sclera and pupil along with its black irises. Angular black marking extend from behind its eyes and continue down its cheeks. It has a short, stubby beak and feet with two toes in front and one in back. Both its beak and feet are a grayish-pink. It has a short, brown tail made of three feathers.

Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction and homing instincts. It can travel straight back to its nest regardless of how far away they might have flown. It is a docile Pokémon and generally prefers to flee from its enemies rather than fight them. By flapping its wings rapidly, it can whip up dust clouds and create whirlwinds to protect itself and flush out potential prey. Pidgey is very common throughout its range and can often be seen in meadows and temperate forests. Ekans and Sneasel are natural predators of Pidgey. Pidgey preys on Seedot.

In Generation III, Feather Dance was its signature move, but other Pokémon could still inherit it via breeding.

Evolution

Pidgey evolves into Pidgeotto, which evolves into Pidgeot.

Trivia

Pidgey erroneously depicted with four talons in the original series

According to the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Pidgey was originally going to be named "Pidge".
Pidgey shares its category with Spearow, Natu, and Rookidee. They are all known as the Tiny Bird Pokémon, though Natu has also been called the Little Bird Pokémon.
Pidgey is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 251.
Pidgey has the shortest cry of any Pokémon, being only 0.181 seconds long.
In Pokémon the Series, Pidgey is often erroneously depicted with four talons on each foot, as opposed to three.

Origin

Despite its name, Pidgey more closely resembles various passerine birds (especially the female house sparrow) than it does a pigeon. The Pokémon the Series episode Carrying On! features "carrier-Pidgey" and references "Pidgey Mail", which is an allusion to homing pigeons, also known as carrier pigeons. The black markings around its eyes are reminiscent of Ra and Horus, the sun and sky gods of Egyptian mythology who were depicted with the heads of falcons.

Name origin

Pidgey may be a corruption of pigeon or a combination of budgie, chickadee, and pudgy (small and plump).

Poppo may be derived from ぽっぽ poppo (onomatopoetic sound of a pigeon's coo).

+'''Pidgey''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポッポ''' ''Poppo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].
-It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pidgeotto}} starting at [[level]] 18 and then into {{p|Pidgeot}} starting at [[level]] 36.
+It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pidgeotto}} starting at [[level]] 18, which evolves into {{p|Pidgeot}} starting at [[level]] 36.
 ==Biology==
-===Physiology===
+Pidgey is a small, plump-bodied {{wp|Aves|avian}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It is primarily brown with a cream-colored face, underside, and flight feathers. On top of its head is a short crest of three tufts. The center crest feathers are brown and the outer two tufts are cream-colored. Just under its crest are its narrow eyes which have white sclera and pupil along with its black irises. Angular black marking extend from behind its eyes and continue down its cheeks. It has a short, stubby beak and feet with two toes in front and one in back. Both its beak and feet are a grayish-pink. It has a short, brown tail made of three feathers.
-Pidgey resembles a small, plump-bodied bird. It is a brown color, with a lighter colored throat and belly. The tips of its wings share this cream color. Both its feet and beak are a pinkish-gray color. Its plumage is fairly nondescript, particularly compared to its evolutions Pidgeotto and Pidgeot. It has black markings around its eyes and a small crest of brown and cream feathers above its eyes. It resembles other small {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon such as {{p|Starly}}, {{p|Taillow}}, and {{p|Spearow}}. However, due to the fact that (with the exception of Spearow) these Pokémon tend to be unique to a region, it is likely that they are a result of {{wp|convergent evolution}}. Pidgey's feet allow it to walk on the ground for a while but can also reach out and safely land on perches.
-====Gender differences====
+Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction and homing instincts. It can travel straight back to its nest regardless of how far away they might have flown. It is a docile Pokémon and generally prefers to flee from its enemies rather than fight them. By flapping its wings rapidly, it can whip up dust clouds and create whirlwinds to protect itself and flush out potential prey. Pidgey is very common throughout its range and can often be seen in meadows and {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate forests}}. {{p|Ekans}} and {{p|Sneasel}} are natural predators of Pidgey. Pidgey preys on {{p|Seedot}}.
-None.
-====Special abilities====
+In [[Generation III]], {{m|Feather Dance}} was its [[signature move]], but other Pokémon could still inherit it via {{pkmn|breeding}}.
-Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction and homing instincts. It can locate its nest even when far removed from familiar surroundings. Because of this, it is extremely easy to train to deliver messages.
-===Behavior===
+===Evolution===
-It is a docile Pokémon, and generally prefers to flee from its enemies rather than fight them. Pidgey's small size permits it to easily hide in long grass, where it is typically found foraging for small insects. It is known to flush out potential prey from long grass by flapping its wings rapidly. This maneuver also serves to protect Pidgey from enemies. If disturbed, a Pidgey is capable of sending a blinding cloud of dust into the air, permitting it to make its escape. This evasive technique can also be applied to battles. While Pidgey generally do not like to fight, they have been known to strike with surprising fierceness when they are cornered. While Pidgey make ideal targets for young trainers, due to their temperaments, it is not unheard of for novice trainers to be seriously injured by a panicked Pidgey.
+Pidgey evolves into {{p|Pidgeotto}}, which evolves into {{p|Pidgeot}}.
-===Habitat===
+(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)

+<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
-Pidgey are very common and can be seen in a variety of environments. Pidgey typically dwell in forests with thick growth and large trees, and due to their environmental versatility and somewhat similar habitat needs, they can usually be found in the same places as {{p|Rattata}}.

+[[File:Casey Pidgey.png|thumb|250px|Pidgey erroneously depicted with four talons in the [[original series]]]]
-* Pidgey is the first {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.
+* According to the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Pidgey was originally going to be named "Pidge".
-* Pidgey shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Spearow}} and {{p|Natu}}. They are all known as Tiny Bird Pokémon, though Natu has also been called a Little Bird Pokémon.
+* Pidgey shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Natu}}, and {{p|Rookidee}}. They are all known as the Tiny Bird Pokémon, though Natu has also been called the Little Bird Pokémon.
-* Pidgey is commonly referred to in a meme on *chan sites in which a boy ignores his distraught girlfriend when he finds a {{shiny2}} Pidgey.
+* Pidgey is the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a base stat total of 251.

 ===Origin===
-It shares some similarities with pigeons, and there have been some references to Pidgey Mail, alluding to {{wp|homing pigeon}}s.
+Despite its name, Pidgey more closely resembles various {{wp|passerine}} birds (especially the female {{wp|house sparrow}}) than it does a {{wp|Columbidae|pigeon}}. The ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'' episode ''[[EP164|Carrying On!]]'' features "carrier-Pidgey" and references "Pidgey Mail", which is an allusion to {{wp|homing pigeon}}s, also known as carrier pigeons. The black markings around its eyes are reminiscent of {{wp|Ra}} and {{wp|Horus}}, the sun and sky gods of {{wp|Egyptian mythology}} who were depicted with the heads of {{wp|falcon}}s.
 ====Name origin====
-Pidgey's name could be a corruption of ''{{wp|pigeon}}'' or a combination of that with the word ''{{wp|Budgerigar|budgie}}''. Its Japanese name appears to be the onomatopoeia of the sound a pigeon makes, ポッポッポ ''poppoppo''.
+Pidgey may be a corruption of ''{{wp|pigeon}}'' or a combination of ''{{wp|Budgerigar|budgie}}'', ''{{wp|chickadee}}'', and ''pudgy'' (small and plump).
+Poppo may be derived from ぽっぽ ''poppo'' (onomatopoetic sound of a pigeon's coo).
 ==In other languages==
-*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Taubsi - From ''Taube'' (pigeon).
+{{Other languages|type=Normal|type2=Flying
