By creeping and hiding in tall grass, Pidgar close the distance between themselves and their prey without being detected. Once in position, they kick up blinding sand to confuse their prey before landing a lethal blow.
Pidgar perches against tree trunks, listening for the sounds of Pidgey hunting. When it catches one that is just about to eat, it swoops down with an ear-piercing shriek, scaring off the Pidgey and stealing its hard-earned meal.
