Fearow

Fearow in the anime

The Spearow that attacked Ash in his first episode later evolved into the Fearow that forced Ash's Pidgeotto to evolve into Pidgeot in Pallet Party Panic. Skyler's Fearow helped pull his balloon and drive off Team Rocket in The Big Balloon Blow-Up, while Tyson used two Fearow as his main battlers in Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution and Rage Of Innocence. Pokémon Ranger Jack Walker also captured a Fearow with his Capture Styler to help recover the stolen Manaphy Egg in Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, and Rico's Fearow battled James's Weezing and Jessie's Arbok twice in A Poached Ego! before Ash's Pikachu defeated it.
