Pidgeotto (Redwald Walker)

Pidgey is the second Pokémon owned, and first Pokémon he caught in Pocket Monsters. Before Pidgey was caught, he used to live in Pallet Jungle.

The Beginning


When Redwald and visited Pallet Jungle in order to catch a Pokémon in, Pidgey appeared out of nowhere and stole Redwald's sandwich from his hands, which drove Redwald crazy and caused Pidgey to be chased by him for a while. Eventually, Pidgey was challenged to a Pokémon Battle, and he faced. But Pidgey used Sand Attack and Gust in the middle of the battle to flee. Later on, Pidgey was mentioned by other students of Professor Oak as fast, determined, clever and agile compared to his species after he fooled them to steal their food, too. After hearing this, Redwald decided to catch the Pokémon, but it would not be easy, as Pidgey would use his moves to flee, rather than battle. Eventually, Redwald managed to challenge Pidgey to a Pokémon Battle, in which he used his Eevee again. But when Eevee prevented Pidgey from using Sand Attack, he weakened the foe and give Redwald a chance to catch him. Thus, Pidgey was caught.

Pidgey participated in Professor Oak's Summer Camp Competition alongside Redwald and Eevee. First, Pidgey performed a battle in the elimination round against a student's Growlithe, and won the battle. Pidgey battled again in the semi final against, after Eevee was tired out and he was substituted with him. Since most of Cubone's ground type moves did not work on Pidgey, he had advantage over him in the beginning. But when Cubone damaged Pidgey seriously, and made him unable to fly high, they had almost equal standards. Thus, the battle ended up in draw.



Part Red & Green
Pidgey was one of the two Pokémon Redwald had when he started his journey in. In the beginning of the journey, Pidgey was occasionally called out to find specific people, Pokémon or items, or make sure that something or someone was fine. He had a minor role in the battle between the Parasect Pack and the Beedrill Pack in, when Redwald, Greta and used their Pokémon to protect the Parasect in order to save their friend.

Pidgey participated in Redwald's gym battle in Pewter Gym in. He was the first Pokémon to be called out in the battle, in which he had the opponent, Brock's Omanyte. Omanyte was resistant to both Normal and Flying type moves, which were the only types Pidgey had to attacks. Pidgey resisted in the battle in the beginning, however, he had to be substituted once Pidgey became wet all over after Omanyte's Water Gun move, which made him unable to move fast or fly high. Redwald figured out that Pidgey was not the one to face Brock's Omanyte, and insisting on him would only make him even more tired. Therefore, he was substituted with. After Eevee was defeated by Brock's Geodude, Pidgey was sent out once again. However, he could not defeat the Pokémon, thus, Redwald lost his first gym battle over Pidgey's loss.

Personality
When Pidgey used to live in Viridian Forest, he would often steal food from Pokémon trainers who would visit the forest. When he debutted in, unlike what Pokédex claimed for Pidgey's species, Pidgey was accused to be fast, determined, clever and agile by other trainers, which convinced Redwald to catch him in the end. Pidgey would prevent Pokémon battles by using Sand Attack and Gust in a row, and flee from there. But when he was prevented from moving by Redwald's Eevee, Pidgey had no chance to flee, thus Redwald managed to catch Pidgey. After he joined the team, Pidgey did not steal anything as he did not need to.

In, when Redwald asked Pidgey to find a safe place for himself, Greta and to protect themselves from mad wild Kangaskhan, Pidgey did not return for an almost entire day, which made Redwald worry if Pidgey left him for freedom. But in the end of the day, Pidgey returned as exhausted, tired out and sleepy. Pidgey proved that day that he has been a loyal member of Redwald's team after all.
