Early Game:
* Pidove: Found in the PWT (Pokemon World Tournament) grounds in Castelia City. Evolves into Tranquill and then Unfezant, a decent early Flying-type.
Mid-Game:
* Vullaby: Found in the Pinwheel Forest and Undella Bay areas. Evolves into Mandibuzz, a powerful Flying/Dark type with great Special Defense.
Late Game:
* Swoobat: Found in the Reversal Mountain area. Evolves from Woobat. While not the most powerful, it's a strong Flying/Psychic type and has a high Special Attack.
* Braviary: Found in the Victory Road area, accessible after beating the Elite Four. A powerful Flying/Normal type with high Attack and Speed.
Other Great Options:
* Pidgeot: Evolves from Pidgeotto and is a strong Flying/Normal type. While not directly found in Black, you can get it via trading or breeding.
Important Considerations:
* Breeding: For a really strong Flying-type, consider breeding for good IVs and EVs, especially in Attack, Speed, and Special Attack.
* Trainer's Choice: Ultimately, the best Flying-type for you depends on your playstyle and team composition.
Tips for Catching:
* Use a Poke Ball: A regular Poke Ball is usually sufficient. You can also try Great Balls or Ultra Balls for higher catch rates.
* Lower the Pokemon's HP: The lower the Pokemon's HP, the easier it is to catch.
* Use status moves: Moves like Sleep Powder or Paralysis can increase your chances of catching a Pokemon.
Good luck catching your perfect Flying-type in Pokemon Black!
