Learn how to use Pidgeot and its Mega in the Pokemon Legends Z-A competitive scene with information about its moveset and nature.

Pidgeot is a Normal/Flying type first introduced in Generation I. While it was very popular on in-game teams during Kanto playthroughs, it was not very effective competitively. However, it got a new Mega Evolution in Generation VI, which breathed new life into this old bird.
Best Pidgeot Moveset in Pokemon Legends Z-A

These are the moves you want to use on your Pidgeot, especially if you are looking to Mega Evolve it later.
- Hurricane
- Heat Wave
- Air Slash
- Quick Attack
Pidgeot becomes more of a Special Attacker when it Mega Evolves. Additionally, it becomes faster. It does not have a wide movepool, which is uncharacteristic of Generation I Pokemon like Starmie, Dragonite, or Clefable. This makes it a bit predictable to play around.
Hurricane is its best Flying STAB, which Pidgeot learns at level 45. However, it also uses Air Slash, which is also a level-up move at level 33. Heat Wave is great coverage against Steel-types, which is TM068. Mable gives it to you at level 28 of her research rewards. Finally, Quick Attack is useful to quickly snipe a weak opponent.

Best Pidgeot Nature in Pokemon Legends Z-A
Going with a Timid (+Spe, -Atk) nature is ideal as Mega Pidgeot likes the extra Speed. You can purchase a Timid Mint at a vendor from Vert Sector 6.
