Research Notes - Rookidee
Corvus eques

It may come as a surprise to some that Corviknight are in fact passerines rather than true birds of prey like Talonflame or Braviary. Indeed, their closest relatives are actually Honchkrow. Corviknight are also omnivorous, eating seeds and nuts in addition to hunting prey. These Pokémon are famed for their intelligence. Some studies even show that they can outwit Noctowl, Pokémon commonly reputed to be wise and perceptive, in certain problem-solving tasks. Their usage of tools in everyday situations is novel amongst bird Pokémon. Physiologically speaking, Corviknight and their pre-evolutions have a brain-to-body mass ratio that is almost identical to that of humans.

Diet

All members of this family are omnivorous. Rookidee and Corvisquire primarily feed on nuts, seeds, Berries, and small invertebrates. Corviknight will hunt mammals, reptiles and even other, smaller bird Pokémon in addition to foraging.

Care

Rookidee will likely get injured often through their scraps, but they are hardy Pokémon and can recover quickly. Tricky Dark-types will give them particular trouble by exploiting their eagerness to strike at feints. Smarter Corvisquire and Corviknight require mental stimulation to keep from getting bored. Puzzles are a good tool for this, and trainers may be surprised with how resourceful these Pokémon can be when it comes to complex toys. Overall, this line is well-suited for beginning trainers thanks to their hardy natures and self-sufficiency.

Caution

Feisty Rookidee may try to pick fights with hapless travelers they come across; however, they will give up eventually if their targets do not give in to their goading. They rarely mean to cause actual harm to humans, instead aiming only to hone their own skills. Intelligent Corvisquire and Corviknight are unlikely to pick fights with people. These Pokémon have long memories and will remember the faces of those who do them wrong. Corviknight are exceptionally perceptive of body language and are said to be able to tell if someone is planning to cause trouble before they even act. Their steely bodies make them formidable foes if angered.
