Wild Spawns

The most impressive wild spawns you can expect to come across during Flock Together Research Day are:

  • In its final evolution form, Pidgey becomes Pidgeot. In a PvPoke battle, this Pocket Monster typically comes out as the winner. Your deciding move in a fight could be either Brave Bird or Feather Dance.

  • Fletchling has two evolutionary forms that could prove beneficial to you: Fletchinder (middle) and Talonflame (final). Talonflame’s signature move, Incinerate, may be a slower 5-turn attack, but it deals significant damage.
