As a Murkrow

It first appeared in the first Diamond and Pearl introduction, Together. However, its first official appearance was in Top-Down Training, where Paul used it in battle against Cynthia and her Garchomp. However, the Template:Type2 Pokémon lost.

It evolved off-screen between Riding the Winds of Change! and Lost Leader Strategy!. It battled against Maylene in a flashback, easily defeating her Meditite and drawing with her Machoke.

Moves used

• Haze
• Sky Attack

Trivia

• As Murkrow was featured in the opening for 37 weeks before its actual debut, there was a common misconception that Murkrow was received in a trade with the boy that Paul gave his Azumarill to in A Gruff Act to Follow. In fact, Murkow was caught normally at some point during Paul's journey through Kanto, Johto and Hoenn.
• The evolution of Honchkrow makes it the first pokemon to appear after a movie that is owned by a rival.
