The Story

What the Pokédex says

  • Let’s Go, Eevee!

    Inept at flying high. However, it can fly around very fast to protect its territory.

  • Ultra Moon

    Due to its short wings, it can’t fly long distances. It wanders about restlessly and pecks at bug Pokémon.

  • Ultra Sun

    Its reckless nature leads it to stand up to others—even large Pokémon—if it has to protect its territory.

  • Moon

    Farmers whose fields are troubled by bug Pokémon appreciate Spearow for its vigorous appetite and look after it.

9 more entries from older games
  • Sun

    Its short wings make it inept at flying. It moves about hurriedly and pecks at Bug-type Pokémon in the tall grass.

  • Alpha Sapphire

    Spearow has a very loud cry that can be heard over half a mile away. If its high, keening cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger.

  • Y

    Eats bugs in grassy areas. It has to flap its short wings at high speed to stay airborne.

  • X

    Very protective of its territory, it flaps its short wings busily to dart around at high speed.

  • White 2

    It flaps its small wings busily to fly. Using its beak, it searches in grass for prey.

  • HeartGold

    It flaps its short wings to flush out insects from tall grass. It then plucks them with its stubby beak.

  • FireRed

    It busily flits around here and there. Even if it is frail, it can be a tough foe that uses MIRROR MOVE.

  • Emerald

    Its loud cry can be heard over half a mile away. If its high, keening cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger.

  • Crystal

    To protect its territory, it flies around ceaselessly, making high- pitched cries.
