The Joel MH: Top 5 Flying Pokemon

So now that I have a genocidal version of myself on my case who'll know doubt be in my face at any point. I think I better get this out of the way.

5. Swellow

If its two tail feathers are standing at attention, it is proof of good health. It soars elegantly in the sky.
It dives at a steep angle as soon as it spots its prey. It catches its prey with sharp claws.

The 'Pidgey' of Gen 3. This pokemon was designed to fly long distances which suits the area of Hoenn to a T. Swellow learns a good range of flying moves as well as Endeavour, a move that does more damage, the weaker Swellow is. It's ability Guts also helps with this as it's attack power goes up 50% when burned or any other status effect.

4. Fletchinder

From its beak, it expels embers that set the tall grass on fire. Then it pounces on the bewildered prey that pop out of the grass.
The hotter the flame sac on its belly, the faster it can fly, but it takes some time to get the fire going.

While most bird pokemon on the first route are normal/flying, Fletchinder becomes a fire/flying pokemon. It has the ability Flame Body which has a 30% chance of burning the opponent when struck with a physical move. It also hatches eggs quicker, huh a bird good at hatching eggs, weird. It doesn't learn a lot of flying moves, but it does learn a lot of fire moves though.

3. Pidgeot

When hunting, it skims the surface of water at high speed to pick off unwary prey such as Magikarp.
It spreads its gorgeous wings widely to intimidate enemies. It races through the skies at Mach-2 speed.

The classic bird pokemon, Pidgeot learns a hell of a lot of flying moves of great strength, and hell it's Pidgeot, I can tell you this, more people had Pidgeot than bloody Fearow. It's abilities Keen Eye prevents loss of accuracy and Tangled Feet which increases evasion by 20% when confused.

2. Braviary

For the sake of its friends, this brave warrior of the sky will not stop battling, even if injured.
They fight for their friends without any thought about danger to themselves. One can carry a car while flying.

This pokemon was introduced in Unova, i.e. the pokemon version of New York, and just look at it. This pokemon is uber powerful, a high level to evolve into this beast, and a shed load of flying moves including Brave Bird, the strongest flying move. It's abilities are Keen Eye and Sheer Force increases the moves with special effects by 30% but ignores the special effects. In other words fights with pure power, just like...

Yeah, if you don't know I'm english, but still...

1. Hawlucha

Although its body is small, its proficient fighting skills enable it to keep up with big bruisers like Machamp and Hariyama.
With its wings, it controls its position in the air. It likes to attack from above, a maneuver that is difficult to defend against.

The first ever fighting and flying type pokemon with the first ever duel type move, Flying Press which does both fighting and flying damage. Learning as well moves such as Sky Attack and it's abilities Limber which prevents being paralyzed or Unburden when losing a held item speed is increased. But do I need to say anymore than this. IT'S A LUCHADOR HAWK. It's Nacho Libre fused with a hawk. A bird of prey crossed with El Toro Fuerte.
