Rookidee will likely be one of the first Pokemon you encounter in your journey through the Galar Region. It takes the role of the simple bird Pokemon that we have seen in nearly every generation so far with Pidgey, Hoothoot, Taillow, etc. However, it seems that Rookidee's evolutionary line will allow it to be a key asset on your team as you make your way to the top of the Galar Pokemon League.

As mentioned before, Rookidee is a Pokemon that you are probably going to encounter very early on, as it is found quite frequently on Route 1, Route 2, Route 3, the Motostoke Riverbank, and the Slumbering Weald. Rookidee can also be an opponent in Max Raid Battles.

Rookidee Evolution Line
