>>43798621Who's the diphead who wrote that? If this is about who's better for a playthrough between Pidgey and Spearow, Spearow takes the win no contest. Spearow has a STAB flying move from the start, evolves into its final form at Lv 20 (21? You get the point), and learns one of the strongest Physical flying moves Drill Peck. Pidgey learns its Flying moves God knows when in Gen 1, only learns Wing Attack, and doesn't evolve into Pidgeot til Lv 36. Fearow's Base stats are also more focused on Speed and Attack, whereas Pidgeot just has crappy rounded stats with no particular focus. Neither Fearow nor Pidgeot are particularly great in the late game. However, Fearow is a master of the early and mid game. Pidgey on the other hand never feels overwhelming, never dominant. It's just there, floundering on early as Pidgey, in the early-mid game as Pidgeotto, and then even more so in the late game as Pidgeot.
