Wingull is the first form in the Wingull evolution line. It is a Water and Flying-type Pokemon that evolves into Pelipper and is often found near water, beaches and coastal routes.
Competitive Overview
Wingull is usually more of a story or evolution-stage Pokemon than a standard competitive choice. Its Water and Flying typing gives it useful utility, but its low bulk can make it hard to keep on the field.
Wingull becomes more useful after evolving into Pelipper, especially in games where Pelipper can use Drizzle. Wingull still offers early Water and Flying coverage for playthrough teams.
