'''Taillow''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: スバメ ''Subame'') is a {{t|Normal}}/{{t|Flying}}-type Pokémon.
|friendship=70
}}
'''Taillow''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''スバメ''' ''Subame'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].
 
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Swellow}} starting at [[level]] 22.
 
==Biology==
Taillow is a small {{wp|bird|avian}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with dark blue feathers. A red marking with pointed tips stretches from its chest to its forehead, and it has a white underside. It has narrow brown eyes and a short yellow beak. It has elongated wingtips and black feet with yellow talons. Each foot has three toes facing forward and one backward. Two sharply pointed feathers form its tail.
 
Taillow is very gutsy and will stand up to powerful opponents without backing down. During the cold season, this Pokémon will fly over 180 miles (300 kilometers) per day to search for {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|areas that have warm climates}}. It typically hunts {{p|Wurmple}}, but flocks have also been shown eating crops in [[HS03|the anime]]. When it is hungry, it will weaken and cry loudly.
 
===Evolution===
Taillow evolves into {{p|Swellow}}.
 
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)
