I always was fond of Starly line. They were helpful in my Pearl game :). But there's a chance Mamepato will probably change it if they are as good in BW.
The Starly evolutionary line. Staraptor is the most viable to use among the fully evolved starting birds because it can learn Close Combat. It also looks cool because of the crest on its head.
Why no Spearow? It shows up first on Route 3, that's beginner-time enough.
S'pose I'll have to settle for Swellow, was my best contest Pokemon; though I expect Noctowl is the best battle-wise.
