Pidgeot is Pokédex #018, generation 1 (Kanto). Pidgeot is a Stage 2 Colorless Pokémon with 80 HP. The card lists level 40. The card says it evolves from Pidgeotto. In this catalog that name is Pidgeotto (#017).

Pidgeot sits at 14/130 in Base Set 2, position 14 of 130. Before it is 13 Ninetales, and after it is 15 Poliwrath. The set belongs to the Base series. It was released on 24 February 2000. The printed size is 130, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

The attack Wing Attack lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. Hurricane is another attack lists 30 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Unless this attack Knocks Out the Defending Pokémon, return the Defending Pokémon and all cards attached to it to your opponent's hand. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Resistance is Fighting -30. The flavor text reads "When hunting, it skims the surface of water at high speed to pick off unwary prey such as Magikarp."

Pidgeot (#018) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2024. The earliest other card is Pidgeot 8/64 in Jungle (1999). Both list 80 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. 19 other cards of Pidgeot list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kagemaru Himeno. I count 656 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Base Set 2 set binder is where a full Base Set 2 set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Pidgeot can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
