Talk:Pidgey (Pokémon)

TCG

The TCG info should be a lot more detailed, and TCG cards probably should have seperate pages. Jshadias 21:40, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Do you mean that each TCG card should have its own page, or just a page for each Pokemon's cards? In other words, should Charmeleon and Blaine's Charmeleon have separate pages? If so, I have a bunch of old Pokemon cards and I can do some of the pages. --Doug teh H-Nut 7:16 PM EST, July 11, 2005

I don't think that's what he/she/it ment,but I could be wrong--Pokemon champ 01:48, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Sprites?

A lot of sprites seem to be missing for Pidgey. Does anyone know if the links are wrong or does anyone have any pictures of the sprites? Gazco !!!! ^{my page|Talk} 19:55, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Same with the other 400+ Pokémon. First I need to add the Sprite template to all of them, THEN we upload. Pretty sure we have all the shiny D/P, RBGY, and Emerald sprites. Along with most of the D/P back ones. TinaTheKirlia ♥ 19:02, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

BUT we don't have the shiny Animated sprites for Pokémon Emerald (Well, we don't have most of them)... That's because our famous comrade, pokemon elite, does not seem to have those sprties! Agent 448^{δ | DP} | ☆ 11:58, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

3 or 4 claws?

Has anyone else noticed Pidgey (and Pidgeotto) have 3 claws in all the game sprites but 4 claws in the anime? I think that should be added to the trivia. (GT4GTR 10:12, 7 November 2008 (UTC))

I never noticed that o: In my opinion, it's worth adding ~~Takoto| サソデイ 10:22, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

A bit of trivia?

Should it be noted that Pidgey and Spearow share extremely close, one might say identical, footprints? Sssteelix! 02:14, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Considering they have extremely close, one might say identical, feet, I'd say not. Schreiber 17:29, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

HGSS Game Locations - National Park?

Pidgey is listed on this page as being available in the National Park in HG and SS, however, on the National Park page it isn't listed for Generation IV at all. Any particular reason for this? ~Ender Phoenix 04:47, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

name origin question

anyone thought its name might have something to do with the word pudgy? It is kind of a fat little birdie. In A Manica 04:04, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Pidgey's origin

Would it be safe to just say that Pidgey is based on a sparrow? Pidgey shows a clear resemblance to the Eurasian tree sparrow, and its short cry even sounds somewhat like a sparrowchirp (though I'm not much of a birder). --Stratelier 02:23, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Maybe it's a lark?

I know I just added the Carolina wren as a possible origin, but I was looking at Japanese bird species and stumbled upon this pic of a horned lark. Icycatelf (talk) 03:47, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Trivia

I agree with Force Fire; the point about Pidgey being the first to have its entry read isn't really noteworthy and should be removed. We could really get into the weeds about all the "firsts", and while some "firsts" might be noteworthy, I feel like this one really isn't. Landfish7 00:56, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Talons

Pidgey is no longer depicted with four talons in the anime. When did this change? And should we change the respective trivia item to reflect the fact that this error no longer occurs? Landfish7 02:04, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

PokéDex Entry for Leaf Green

I believe the page has a typo regarding Pidgey's PokéDex entry as it appears in Pokémon Leaf Green. I double-checked, and the error is not in the original game. It should say that Pidgey "...flaps its wings at ground level..." not "flaps its wings and ground level..." I know this is a very minor thing to start a new section over, but my account is brand new. I know the syntax for wikis, but I'm a bit nervous about making my first edit. Reginald Cosmic (talk) 03:58, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

This is a perfectly acceptable reason to start a new talk page section. Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Landfish7 04:50, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Are you fact checking this, or can one of us go ahead and edit the page with the correct transcription from the FRLG PokéDex? I don't know the procedure on this wiki. Reginald Cosmic (talk) 06:32, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

We've verified that it says "at ground level" and have made the correction. Thanks again for your help! Landfish7 19:11, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
