The hoothoot is better
A Level 7 Pidgey and a Level 9 Pidgeotto and in HeartGold and SoulSilver his Pidgey is Level 9 and his Pidgeotto is Level 13.
theres no easy way. just strategize and you will be fine. i do recommend pidgey or hoothoot or any flying type
Pidgey evolves at level 18.
i think pidgey because it is strong fast and has many good moves as it evolves.
pidgey evolves at lv.18 same as all the other Pokemon games.
you train it to level 18
Pidgey will evolve twice as on other games, at lvl 18 Pidgey evolves into Pidgeotto, and at lvl 36 Pidgeotto will evolve into Pidgeot.
2 Pokemon a pidgey(lv.9) and pidgeotto(lv.13)
5 Pokemon to get in the beginning of the game: Mareep Pidgey Bellsprout/Oddish Aipom And then your Cyndaquil.
Rt.1
lv18
Pidgey evolves at Level 18 into Pidgeotto, and then levels again at Level 36 into Pigeot.
