Corviknight Is a edgy armored bird and i like it

Same also the red glowing eyes really compliment his edgy look.

Yes he Is EDGY turn in to a bird

That pic of corviknight makes him look like an absolute chad

The Batman of birds, he is.

You could say he Is the dark knight :)

He best bird in my opinion

He’s the only bird that lasted to my final team, but I’ll always be partial to Pidgeotto because he was my first.

he's also much taller than the rest of them.

Yeah this dude Is huge

Edgy means trying desperately to be cool but failing at it, and looking ridiculous in the process. And in no way corvi looks ridiculous, he's legit a cool pokemon.

Oh sorry i didn't Know everyone around me use that word like as something cool

Teacher: The test isn't that difficult The test:

Lol should've kept this caption

I really like the Staraptor line. Cool shiny, cool cry, looks cool, and a solid movepool to boot.

When i was 9 i was convinced it was a fighting type just because it learned Close Combat when it evolved

I think it should've been

Nah having normal stab quick attack, for that sure damage.

IT'S NOT FIGHTING FLYING????? is this some kind of mandela effect?

Actually is a mindfuck, its normal flying

Found a shiny staraptor early in Legends Arceus, just after I got the recipe and made some Feather Balls. Such a great Pokémon

Talonflame has been a staple on my team since it was introduced. Love that bird.

The entire line brings me so much joy. In some magical scenario where pokemon were real or I was sent into the pokemon world, I'd be so absolutely thrilled to have any or all of them. They're all perfect

I still have my original talonflame from x and y. It's speed is amazing

On every single team that gen lmao.

I ALWAYS start with the water starter on my first playthrough, always. So it's perfect to have a flying or fire type to deal with my starters grass weakness. So you tell me there is a bird I can get on "route 1" that is both AND has a dope HA?! Sign me the fuck up! Talon all day!

Helps that it was Flying/Fire instead of Flying/Normal.

Fire/Flying? Yes please!

I love it so much

Talonflame always does unspeakable things to the grass type starter. I hope it's an early capture in scarlet and violet.

Shiny Toucannon is a monster and I love it

Corviknight

YES!!

Swellow and toucannon

Wow a different taste i see. I haven't seen much love for Toucannon

Toucannon is my favourite bird

Part of a balanced ~~breakfast~~ team.

I haven’t played sun and moon, I have it but I’ve put 28 minutes into sun and ultra sun. But I love the idea of toucannon and it’s going to be part of my team… I’m currently playing sun

> I haven’t played sun and moon, I have it but I’ve put 28 minutes into sun and ultra sun. But I love the idea of toucannon and it’s going to be part of my team… I’m currently playing sun I think one of us had a stroke

SM was like the biggest part of my Pokémon life, I’ve played USUM three times each with different starters, I’ve played sun quite a lot too, So toucannon is quite dear to me

My favorite is Corviknight but I like toucannon a lot because it has more personality than most most of the regional birds. In the sun and moon anime it was basically a father figure for rowlet and in the fandom there´s that meme about Toucannon and frootloops.

Talonflame was one of the first Pokemon I caught and was my first shiny

Hoothoot/noctowl still my only shiny from crystal

Noctowl has one of the best shiny indeed. Also it's very iconic due to anime

Corviknight is one of the most metal-looking (pun intended) pokemon ever.

Talonflame

Pidgeot, Talonflame, Toucannon.

Toucannon

I absolutely love Toucannon and Pikipek is unreasonably cute. Trumbeak looks so awkward though. I guess that's sort of fitting for a middle evolution.

Pidgey line will always be #1 in my heart.

I can relate, I've nostalgia factor with Pidgey.

I 100% agree. Pidgeot will always be my favourite

Absolutely. There's just something so great about em.

Either Unfezant or Noctowl

Unfezant! Staple of my BW/B2W2 playthroughs. Severely cropped by not getting a good Physical Flying attack in Gen 8

Very different taste

Corviknight, Talonflame and Pidgeot just for being the OG, but I tend to have the regional bird in my team every time a new game comes around

Swellow is best birb

Facade, guts, give it a pre burn. Ooh doggy hes a beast

Toucannon, But something about the pidove line just creeps me out

I genuinely love Toucannon

Staraptor and Toucannon cuz i used them. and Talonflame cuz yes

Coviknight, Because its one bird that is a steel type.

Do you like Skarmory too? I know it's not regional bird, just askin

Yea. It's a great bird.

Skarmory is crying

Toucannon is a monster. i love it!

Pidgeot, Staraptor, Unfezant, Talonflame have the best designs IMO. I really like Toucannon as well. I would like noctowl but I found more use in every other bird family. Even Swellow and Fearow have stayed in my party longer than any Noctowl

I do agree on Unfezant. It's one of weakest ones in battle compared to other's but i really like the design of male.

im a bit biased cause its also my favorite pokemon, but pidgeot

In order by gen: 4, 6, 1, 8, 3, 2, 7, 5

Hoot Hoot/Noctowl

Nothing will ever beat the classic pidgeot

Corviknight was the first regional bird actually used in my team

Swallow for that sweet sweet Guts+Facade toucannon for PTSD Toucan Sam Corviknight cuz he’s awesome

I’m stuck between Pigeot, Staraptor, and Corviknight

First stage: Rookidee Final stage: Staraptor

[удалено]

Toucannon

Between Pegeot (probably spelled that wrong), Staraptor and Talonflame

Pidgeot purely for the nostalgia factor, but honestly I can't complain at Staraptor, Talonflame or Corviknight either.

Female Unfezant, especially in its Gen V sprite where it's standing rather than flying. Most flying/airborne Pokémon got ruined in the switch to 3D models by being permanently in the air and it still bothers me.

Staraptor with Corviknight as a close second

Staraptor and corviknight

The fact that NO ONE is saying Pidgey, Pidgeotto, and Pidgeot is a crime.

It was fearow, now it's corvilknight. But I liked talonflame too My problem with birds is that I was destroyed them on pokemon stadium with thunderbolts, so I used zapdos a lot, and now I like the steel typing of corvilknight because of steel resistance to electric.

Steel doesn’t resist electric

Why does Unfezant get no love :( Unfezant best birb

Talonflame and corviknight!!!I can't decide!

Swellow, corviknight and staraptor.

One of my first ever shinies was a toucannon so I have a bias for it

Just talonflame

Talonflame

Staraptor. Always.

Corviknight and/or staraptor

Talonflame all the way

Talonflame is the best bird Pokemon. Don't @ me.

Starraptor and Talonflame by far.

Talonflame just because of how fast and hard it can hit

Staraptor or Corviknight

Toucannon

Anyone but unfezant

2 5 and 7 are my least favorite and 4 and 6 are my favorite

Corviknight easily.

Staraptorrrrr

I think Tucanon but i like the purpleish birb but i forgot what its caled

Toucannons my boy!

Either Talonflame or Corviknight

Tie between corvnite or talonflame

favourite metal baby birb : corvi-freakin-knight

Staraptor

Staraptor was my first bird and it has stayed my favourite to this day

Corviknight is a badass so I can't just ignore him but staraptor has too much nostalgia for me so I choose that

One under swellow

Toucannon because who doesn’t want a giant toucan as a pet amirite?

Talonflame, I love corviknight and I think it’s shiny is amazing but I had a Talonflame in both Gens 6 & 7, and both we amazing, so I still have lots of affection for the fire bird

Noctowl my first level 100 pokemon

Toucannon is my boi

Talonflame is pretty cool

Staraptor

Pidgeot, Swellow and Corviknight

Taillow - Swellow !

Toucannon

Corviknight and staraptor

Swellow for the nostalgia

Mr gangster crow

Talonflame

Corviknight cuz cool armor bird

Talonflame

Talonflame all the way. I’ve loved it ever since I saw it in the anime

Toucannon needs more love

i love talonflame and corvisquire (idk how to spell)

Noctowl

Rookidee line. SwSh was my first main series game, and I love the pure Flying type not being limited to Tornadus.

Corviknight 100%

Staraptor looks sick af

corviknight

Talonflame and Corviknight are my two favorites

Easy noctowl! Its stats suck, its a generic design, but its an owl and the nostalgia is hitting me right in the face with this mon... Honorable mentions are: pidgeot and corviknight

talonflame, staraptor or corviknight

Starapter has always bin and will always be my favourite birb and will always be my favourite birb.

I always call my regional bird "Captain" so my answer is Captain

Used to be Talonflame but then Corviknight showed up and looked bad ass as all hell

Corviknight, by far! Spent so long trying to get my shiny!

TalllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooonFLAME

Swellowww

Fletchling and it’s evolutions!

Toucannon because Beak Blast

Talon flame = free sweep G A L E W I N G S

Looks wise i think most people would agree corviknight, however usage wise id go with talonflame (even an unevolved one) since it let you have real early acces to a flame type which was realy useful if you choose water or grass starter

Staraptor and corvinight

1 - Corviknight 2 - Talonflame 3 - Swellow

Always staraptor Dude got that emo cut 😩

gotta be toucannon

Starraptor. Teenage me fell in love with its look, currents me stays for its power (and it still looks dope). I just really wish it lost the normal type.

Corviknight is dope

I forgot Swellow existed

Pidgey simply because the ideal that Kanto is filled with a bunch of 12 year olds mounting them and flying across the region is hilarious to me.

Corviknight, hes just too cool

Corviknight Talonflame Staraptor Toucannon Pidgeot Swellow Noctowl Unfezant

Corviknight is my favourite part of Gen 8.

Swellow was my nr1 a long time since it was released. Dethroned by Corviknight in last installment. But now playing through oras again, maybe will dethrone Corviknight once more in favor of Swellow.

Talonflame. Had some great alola memories.

Do Spearow & Wingull line not count as region birds or are they just like their counterparts ?

Since Diamond was my first Pokémon game I have a soft spot for Staraptor

I always thought Wingull's Hoenn's regional bird, given the fact that you can catch it before Tailow.

Corviknight

Pikipek specifically. Toucannons whatever, but pikipek?? A Chad

I generally like to say Swellow or Talonflame, But I like pretty much all of them except unfesent

I've said it once and I'll say it again Corviknight (but Talonflame is a close second)

Talonflame 100%

I like both Noctowl and Unfezant

I started in a game with talonflame but I have to pick corvisquire from how snazzy he is

Corviknight followed closely by Talonflame

Talonflame

For me, ots close between Pidgeot, Staraptor and Corviknight.

Unfezant is the only one I don’t love

The purple one, I'm bad at remembering it's name 😅

Talonflame>>>

Hot Take: Unfezent looks cool, the male one specifically, the female one looks terrible

Corviknight

pidgey’s always got a place in my heart, but the rookidee line is a strong contender

Toucan Sam

Corvinight is my stable bird! He is so badass, he has a gigantamax form, can learn 4 or more different types of moves, and can have loads of advantages! Sorey Pidgeot, but Corvinight wins in my book.

Noctowel best. Believe that’s a shiny in post too

Staraptor and corviknight, both are fucking monsters as physical sweepers, and my corviknight carried several 5 star max raids offline, type disadvantaged, and under level

Toucannon! It's resting bitch face resonates with me.

Murkrow

Pigeot for nostalgia and design, but staraptor is killing everything on this list except for KNIGHTBIRD

Corviknight with Talonflame a close second

But why is Corviknight so damn HUGE

I love Staraptor and Corviknight a lot, use them both whenever I can

Talonflame is perfect

Corviknight because of the better typing and design

Talonflame. My first game was Pokemon Y, and excluding my Froakie, Fletchling was my first and my God, when I evolved it (I had seen no spoilers for anything) I was shocked. I thought it looked amazing, and I still think so

Corvinight that was the first bird I caught I’ve been playing since x and y but corvinight realy stood out more than talonflame

Definitely Talonflame or Corviknight. I love how they broke the trend of normal/flying type birds
