Strategy Overview
Pidgey is unviable in the Little Cup metagame due to its poor stats, mediocre typing, and average movepool. While other Flying-types may find a niche due to useful abilities or high stats, Pidgey has nothing to warrant including it over another Flying-type on any competitive team. Its stats and movepool leave it completely outclassed by Doduo, Vullaby, and Rufflet, among others.
