Major appearances
Ash's Pidgeotto
In the anime, Ash caught a Pidgeotto in Ash Catches a Pokémon. Since then, it played a role as one of Ash's main Pokémon. It participated in the Gym battles against Team Rocket, Brock, and Misty, and was frequently used for breaking Team Rocket's Meowth-shaped balloon. However, it was the only one of Ash's Pokémon at the time, save some of his numerous Tauros, not to participate in the Indigo League Conference. It eventually evolved into Pidgeot and left Ash's party to guard other Pidgey and Pidgeotto.
