TaillowDragon #76 Pokémon Card

Taillow is a small, avian Pokémon resembling a swallow, primarily known for its vibrant red chest and blue-black plumage. Introduced in Generation III with the Hoenn region, Taillow quickly became a recognizable figure in the Pokémon world. Its Pokédex entries consistently describe its tenacity and resilience; despite its small size, it is known to bravely challenge larger opponents. Taillow primarily feeds on Wurmple, showcasing its role as a predator in its natural habitat, which typically includes forests and open grasslands. Its behavior is characterized by swift, agile flight and a strong sense of territoriality. Taillow evolves into Swellow, another Normal/Flying type, at level 22. As a Normal/Flying type, Taillow is weak to Electric, Rock, and Ice type attacks, resistant to Grass and Bug, and immune to Ground types in the main series games. In the anime, Taillow is notably featured as one of Ash Ketchum's Pokémon, evolving into Swellow and becoming a powerful member of his team. Its design and characteristics reflect the common swallow, symbolizing freedom and speed, making it a beloved Pokémon for many fans.
