It will lose energy over time - mainly due to friction.
Thermal energy due to air resistance and friction. This loss of energy causes the pendulum to slow down and eventually come to a stop.
When a pendulum swings and is not continually pushed, the energy is gradually lost to friction and air resistance, causing the pendulum to slow down and eventually stop. This lost energy is converted into heat due to the friction between the pendulum and the air or any other surfaces it comes in contact with.
A swinging pendulum will eventually stop because of friction with the air.
It simply loses energy. There is no changing of energy. It is not changed into potential energy, because it has no potential to move anywhere. Potential energy is, for example, bringing a pendulum to close to its apex and typing it there with a string.
When a pendulum swings, it loses some of its energy due to air resistance, internal friction, and other factors. This lost energy is converted into thermal energy, causing the pendulum to eventually come to a stop.

It shouldn't relate at all. The period of a pendulum depends only on its length, not on how far it swings side-to-side.

The pendulum will take more time in air to stop completely in comparision with water

You can make a pendulum stop by simply stopping its movement with your hand or by reducing the amplitude of its swing gradually over time. Additionally, you can use friction or air resistance to slow down the pendulum and make it come to a stop.
Gravity doesn't make a pendulum stop. Air resistance and friction in the pivot are the things that rob its energy. If you could eliminate those and leave it all up to gravity, the pendulum would never stop.
The energy changes into is Thermal energy because of the friction caused by it moving produces heat. [Hope it helps]
In a pendulum, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as it swings back and forth. Friction and air resistance gradually dissipate the kinetic energy, causing the pendulum to eventually stop swinging.
