Calling all Pokémon GO trainers! The Flock Together Research Day takes wing today, May 11th, 2024, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. Get ready for a feathery fiesta with increased Flying-type Pokémon spawns, special research tasks, and a chance to snag some shiny avian companions!
Prime Picks for Trainers
While many Flying-type Pokémon will be gracing the skies during this event, here’s a hot tip: don’t overlook the humble Pidgey! Pidgey’s final evolution, Pidgeot, soars as a fantastic choice for Player vs Player (PvP) battles, particularly in the Great League and Ultra League (especially with perfect IVs).
Pidgeot’s Power
Pidgeot boasts an impressive win-loss ratio in PvP battles, thanks to its strategic movepool. Here’s what makes Pidgeot a contender:
- Brave Bird: This high-powered Flying-type attack can devastate opponents if left unshielded.
- Feather Dance: This crafty move lowers the opponent’s attack stat, setting Pidgeot up for dominance.
- Shadow Pidgeot: Trainers, if you’ve encountered Shadow Pidgey from Team Rocket Grunts, this shadowy evolution packs an extra punch! With Shadow Boost, its Aerial Ace attack becomes a shield-threatening force.
Mega Evolve for Max Pidgey Power
Don’t have enough XL candy to power up your Pidgeot for Ultra League battles? No problem! During the event, mega evolve a Flying-type Pokémon to temporarily boost the candy you earn from catching Pidgeys. Stock up and power up your Pidgeot for future PvP glory!
So, trainers, get out there, catch those Pidgeys, and take flight with a formidable Pidgeot in your PvP team!
