In this episode, Rhys and Felicity swoop into the fluffy, chaotic world of Pidgey—Pokédex #16 and the tiny bird Pokémon with surprisingly big energy (and even bigger chicken-nugget debates). They explore why Pidgey is almost always the first Pokémon new trainers meet, how its Keen Eye ability keeps its aim sharp, and why this cute little loaf-with-wings shouldn’t be underestimated. From basic moves like Tackle and Sand Attack to its first real flying attack, Gust, this episode digs into everything that makes Pidgey both adorable and secretly awesome. Learn how Pidgey avoids battles by kicking up blinding sand, why its sense of direction is so strong that scientists compare it to a living compass, and how its flock behavior keeps it safe from predators. Rhys and Felicity also explain how Pidgey evolves into Pidgeotto and eventually the majestic Pidgeot—a full-blown glow-up from “tiny fluff nugget” to “giant bird with legendary hair.” And of course… there are the nuggets. So many nuggets. Chicken nuggets, Pidgey nuggets, turkey nuggets—plus sugar-rush jokes, “bye-bye” explosions, sibling mischief, airhead theft, and a Pidgey Prime delivery service that would give Amazon a run for its money. It’s unhinged in the best way. Stay tuned for listener feedback details, a wing-it joke of the day, and all the laughter and silliness you expect from the Pokémon Pokédex. Whether you’re a Kanto veteran or just starting your journey, this episode will have you protecting Pidgey from becoming lunch. Also in this episode: Pidgey’s Traits and Abilities:A Normal/Flying type with Keen Eye—an ability that prevents opponents from lowering its accuracy. Its moves include Tackle, Sand Attack, and Gust. Physical Characteristics:A one-foot-tall, four-pound tiny bird Pokémon often compared to a fluffy bread loaf with feathers. Small, light, and unexpectedly strategic. Evolution Line:Pidgey evolves into Pidgeotto at level 18 and then into the powerful, stylish Pidgeot—a major evolution glow-up. Behavior & Defense:Pidgey prefers to avoid fighting. It uses Sand Attack to blind opponents and fly away, keeping itself safe and stress-free. Navigation Skills:With an incredible sense of direction, Pidgey can always find its way home no matter how far it flies—basically built-in GPS. Super Vision:Pidgey can spot Caterpie-like Pokémon from over 100 feet away. Its eyesight is good enough to win every game of hide-and-seek ever invented. Gust Power:Pidgey’s wings can whip up mini tornados of leaves and dust—great for battles, or for dramatic entrances. Habitat:Common throughout the Kanto region and often the first Pokémon trainers catch… assuming they don’t lose it. Or eat it. Or turn it into nuggets. Fun Facts & Anime-Style Mayhem:Expect chaotic flocks, Zapdos warnings, Snorlax impressions, glitter jokes, and very strong feelings about bread crust.
