Trivia

  • In Generation I, Articuno and Moltres can both learn Peck, while Zapdos cannot. In Generation II and on, however, this is reversed so that Zapdos may learn Peck, while Articuno and Moltres cannot.
  • Despite the fact that Togepi and its evolutions lack a beak or a horn, they can learn Peck via breeding.
