Biology

Fearow has a distinctly avian appearance. It has large wings colored in shades of brown, an orange crest on its head and a very long and narrow beak. Fearow is instantly recognisable from its large wingspan, elongated neck and thin, long beak, all characteristics being a radical departure from its short-winged, stubby-beaked pre-evolved form, Spearow. The word Avian can refer to different things: .. Most commonly it is used referring to the class of animals named birds. Avians are a fantasy race in several fantasy settings. ... The beak—otherwise known as the bill or rostrum—is an external anatomical structure which serves as the mouth in some animals. ... Spearow ) is a fictional character from the Pokémon franchise, listed as #21 in the National Pokédex. ...

Thanks to its great wings, Fearow can fly much easier than it ever did as a Spearow. It can even use them to catch air currents and effortlessly glide over large distances for as long as a day without having to land or rest, an ability shared to an extent by real birds such as the albatross. If it senses danger, Fearow will immediately rise high to the sky. It tends to fly around incredibly high altitudes, even the edge of outer space. Genera Diomedea Thalassarche Phoebastria Phoebetria Albatrosses, of the biological family Diomedeidae, are large seabirds allied to the procellariids, storm-petrels and diving-petrels in the order Procellariiformes (the tubenoses). ...

Fearow's beak gives it a surprisingly long range of attack, making it rather dangerous in battle. It is adept at using its beak to pluck prey from under the soil or water. Fearow mainly feeds on small insects and fish in this way. It can also attack by rising high up in the air, then swooping down to divebomb its target.

Fearow has high attack and speed, but the rest of its stats are pretty low, making it very weak defensively. Furthermore, while it learns a handful of good physical attacks, its movepool is not varied enough to make it stand out, and as such has been outclassed by Dodrio throughout the history of the video games. Usually its signature move Drill Peck is used, as well as Return, Hidden Power (fighting or ground), and some form of filler. Sky Attack is also a great move to teach Fearow in Red/Blue/Yellow (this is done by using a TM), however since Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Fearow can only learn Sky Attack as an egg move. Aerial Ace is another good move to teach Fearow (using the TM40 or by raising a Spearow to level 25 before evolving. (Should you evolve a Spearow at level 20, it will not learn it.).
