Oh, God, I HOPE they keep Staraptor. It was the only one of the basic birds that was any good.

That, or they buff up older Pokémon this generation. Unlikely, but I'd love to see Pidgeot get better distributions/a better movepool.

Eff you, I love Fearow! Took that bugger against the HG Elite Four. Not sure how it stacks competitively, though...

BASIC Birds. That's the Pidgey line in the first game.

Fuck that. My Pidgeot took out the Elite Four and the Champion in Yellow. Hell, I beat Brock using it as a Pidgey. Never even sent that bugger Pikachu out. It just trailed behind me like "wtf man? I could clip that birds wings" and Pidgeot would just glare down at it and somehow Pikachu got a vision of the future and saw a Noctowl going "O RLY!?"

Pidgeot pwns. Nuff said.
