Pidgey resembles a small, plump-bodied bird. It is a brown color, with a lighter colored throat and belly. The tips of its wings share this cream color. Both its feet and beak are a pinkish-gray color. Its plumage is fairly nondescript, particularly compared to its evolutions Pidgeotto and Pidgeot. It has black markings around its eyes and a small crest of brown and cream feathers above its eyes. It resembles other small {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon such as {{P|Starly}}, {{P|Taillow}}, and {{P|Spearow}}. However, due to the fact that (with the exception of Spearow) these Pokémon tend to be unique to a region, it is likely that they are a result of {{wp|convergent evolution}}. | Pidgey resembles a small, plump-bodied bird.

Pidgey's feet allow it to walk on the ground for a while but can also reach out and safely land on perches. | ||
