It has narrow, dark brown eyes with white pupils and a short, hooked beak that is light pink. The feathers covering its wings are pinkish red with lighter tips, and it has a beige underside with two thin, horizontal stripes. Its light pink feet have two toes in front and one in the back.

Spearow is an {{wp|bird|avian}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is very small. It has rough, brown plumage on its head and three brown tail feathers. It has narrow, dark brown eyes with white pupils and a short, hooked beak that is light pink. The feathers covering its wings are pinkish-red with lighter tips, and it has a beige underside with two thin, horizontal stripes. Its light pink feet have two toes in front and one in the back. Black feathers cover its back.


Although inept at other aspects of its flying, such as height and distance, Spearow is still capable of flying quickly to protect its territory. However, it must flap its wings at high speeds to stay aloft. Spearow's loud shrieks can be heard over half a mile (one kilometer) away, and are used to warn other of its kind of danger. [[EP001|The anime]] has shown that Spearow sees in black and white and will chase its foes in a large flock. Spearow are found naturally in open habitats with warmer climates, mainly {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|desolate wastelands and fields}}, where it hunts for insects. Appears in the [[Regional Pokédex|regional Pokédexes]] of [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Kalos]] and [[Alola]]. {{p|Ekans}} is a natural predator of Spearow.

In the [[EP001|first episode]] of ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'', Spearow is revealed to see in black and white and will chase its foes in a large flock. Spearow are found naturally in open habitats with warmer climates, mainly {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|desolate wastelands and fields}}, where it hunts for insects. {{p|Ekans}} is a natural predator of Spearow.

===Evolution===
===In the main series===
Spearow evolves into {{p|Fearow}}.
[[File:Spearow anime M20.png|250px|left|thumb|Spearow in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Ash's Fearow|Spearow (anime)]]=====
A large flock of Spearow debuted in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', where it attacked {{Ash}} after he hit {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Fearow|one particular Spearow}} on the head with a rock to weaken it (because {{AP|Pikachu}} refused to [[Obedience|obey]] and battle), thinking it was a {{p|Pidgey}}. The flock of Spearow returned with the leader, the very same Spearow that Ash had hit in the first episode, as a {{p|Fearow}} in ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic!]]''. The flock reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'', ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]'', ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', and ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]''. They also reappeared in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', which was set in a timeline different to that of the main series.

According to Tracey, Spearow was vitamin-deficient.

Spearow (Japanese: オニスズメ Onisuzume) is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Fearow starting at level 20.

Biology

Spearow is an avian Pokémon that is very small. It has rough, brown plumage on its head and three brown tail feathers. It has narrow, dark brown eyes with white pupils and a short, hooked beak that is light pink. The feathers covering its wings are pinkish-red with lighter tips, and it has a beige underside with two thin, horizontal stripes. Its light pink feet have two toes in front and one in the back. Black feathers cover its back.

Although inept at other aspects of its flying, such as height and distance, Spearow is still capable of flying quickly to protect its territory. However, it must flap its wings at high speeds to stay aloft. Spearow's loud shrieks can be heard over half a mile (one kilometer) away, and are used to warn other of its kind of danger. In the first episode of Pokémon the Series, Spearow is revealed to see in black and white and will chase its foes in a large flock. Spearow are found naturally in open habitats with warmer climates, mainly desolate wastelands and fields, where it hunts for insects. Ekans is a natural predator of Spearow. Spearow preys on Sunkern.

Main series

Major appearances

Spearow (anime)

A large flock of Spearow debuted in Pokémon - I Choose You!, where it attacked Ash after he hit one particular Spearow on the head with a rock to weaken it (because Pikachu refused to obey and battle), thinking it was a Pidgey.

They also reappeared in I Choose You!, which was set in a timeline different to that of the main series.

Trivia

Origin

Spearow seems to be based on a sparrow with characteristics of a shrike such as its hooked beak. Shrikes are territorial and are sometimes called "butcher birds" due to their brutal feeding habits, which may be the basis for Spearow's aggressive nature.

Name origin

Spearow may be a combination of spear (referring to its sharp beak) and sparrow.

Onisuzume may be a combination of 鬼 oni (ogre) and 雀 suzume (sparrow).
