Doduo (Japanese: ドードー Dodo) is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
It evolves into Dodrio starting at level 31.
Biology
Doduo is a two-headed, bipedal avian Pokémon. Each head has a long sharp beak and two beady black eyes. It has a bristly, down-like covering of brown feathers on its body and both heads. A male has black flexible necks, whereas a female has brown necks; both genders have brown legs. Each foot has four digits ending in a sharp claw. Both heads have an identical brain. However, it is believed that on occasion they may possess different brains. It is also theorized that the two heads communicate with some form of telepathy for coordination. Even when sleeping or nourishing itself with food and water, one head is always awake and alert and keeps a keen eye out for enemies.
Due to its almost non-existent wings, it cannot fly very well. However, it has developed legs that make it a powerful runner. Reaching speeds of 60 mph (96.5 km/h), it energetically strides across the plains leaving large 4 inch (10.6 centimeter) deep footprints behind it. By raising and lowering its two heads, it is better able to maintain balance while running. Doduo lives in wide open plains, grasslands, and savannahs.

Trivia
Doduo flying in
Pokémon Stadium
- In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Doduo was originally known as "Dodo", its Japanese name.
- Before Generation IV, the necks of normal Doduo were black (which became the male neck color), while its evolution's necks were beige (which became the female neck color).
- According to its Pokédex entries, Doduo can run at 60 mph (100 km/h), while Dodrio can only run at nearly 40 mph (60 km/h). However, Dodrio's base Speed stat is higher.
- Doduo and Dodrio are the only Flying-type Pokémon to consist only of a head and legs.
Origin
Despite its name, Doduo seems like it has more in common with ostriches than dodos. It also seems to show some similarities to the moa, an extinct flightless bird indigenous to New Zealand; and the emu, another flightless bird. Doduo also resembles the kiwi in some ways as well.
Name origin
Doduo is a combination of dodo (an extinct, flightless bird) and duo (a pair).
Dodo is literally dodo.
