Read more ↓Pidove is a Normal/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V, hailing from the Unova region. It is known as the Tiny Pigeon Pokémon and is often one of the first bird Pokémon trainers encounter in the wild within its native region. Pidove evolves into Tranquill starting at level 21, and then into Unfezant starting at level 32. In the Pokémon world, Pidove are common city dwellers, accustomed to human presence and frequently seen gathering in parks and plazas, much like real-world pigeons. Their design is simple yet endearing, reflecting their commonality and gentle nature. While not possessing extraordinary power, Pidove plays a crucial role in early-game teams for many trainers, offering reliable flying capabilities and access to basic Normal-type attacks. Its presence in the anime often highlights its role as a common, yet sometimes underestimated, companion Pokémon, often seen in flocks. Culturally, Pidove represents the ubiquitous urban wildlife of the Pokémon world, a familiar sight that grounds the fantastical setting in a touch of realism.
