Passenger Pigeon is a Brilliance Healer Friend that appears in Kemono Friends Kingdom.

Personality

“Everyone, please pay attention. I am Passenger Pigeon, I can bring you wonder...”
—Passenger Pigeon's profile

Passenger Pigeon is Kingdom's tour guide extraordinaire. She is glad to lead the way for any Friend seeking to make a journey, and is content to cross chilling snow fields and scorching desert sands to ensure safe travels for her "passengers". She has a knack for planning out safe, efficient, and scenic itineraries, leading the Friends in her care on trips they will not soon forget. Even in her free time, Passenger Pigeon can be found meticulously calculating paths across Kingdom and committing its geography to memory.

The sociable Passenger Pigeon is well-known for her upbeat demeanor; she believes that any journey is best undertaken in good company, which lends itself well to her tour guide lifestyle. However, the side of Passenger Pigeon which many Friends do not see is that she does not handle extended solitude particularly well; she can easily overexert herself with her travel planning when loneliness sets in. As such, she is grateful for any opportunity she gets to accompany a journeying Friend, and even a "hello" and a stroll together can help keep her spirits flying high.

Role in the Plot

Main Story

Passenger Pigeon is a supporting character in Chapter 5: Search for Sunny Coast. She helps Jinri, Chevrotain, and Least Weasel navigate the subway tunnels under Kingdom after their Lucky Beast companion loses its GPS signal.

Strategy

Passenger Pigeon is an adept healer for any team structure, even though her kit suggests she is best fit for a Dice-centric team—which is still very true in and of itself. There is a solid case to be made that Passenger Pigeon is the game's premier Heal Friend.

• Her stats across the board far surpass those of the other common six-star healer, Suri Alpaca. Her higher SATK is especially important here, as it means she deals more healing with both her regular attacks and Miracle.
  • Additionally, Passenger Pigeon has a COMBO Bonus with Red-Eared Slider, who is arguably the strongest Guard Friend in the game and can be found on any team structure; meanwhile, Suri Alpaca pairs with Crested Ibis, who is generally relegated to niche builds when used at higher levels of game play.
• Suri Alpaca is not wholly outclassed, as her extremely useful Habits give her solid use cases. Although the base healing effect of Suri Alpaca's Miracle is higher on paper, her lower SATK means the difference does not usually save her from being outhealed by Passenger Pigeon.

• Passenger Pigeon should almost always use her first Habit, "Best Journey", as its effect is more powerful and consistent than those of her other Habits.
  • While her second Habit, "Home Quarantine", can in theory grant more Mileage than her first Habit, it requires numerous turns to match what "Best Journey" achieves on her first turn in play, and even more to surpass it.
  • Her third Habit, "Dice Master", is very odds-based and not easily recommended for use in any scenario.

Trivia

• Shiraishi Ryōko reprises her role as Passenger Pigeon, who she also voiced in Kemono Friends 2 and Kemono Friends 3.
• Her second Habit, "Home Quarantine", may have originally been called "Escort Time"; this is reflected in her Awakening Tier 2 level-up screen, which refers to the second Habit by both of these names and suggests that the Habit name was not updated properly in all areas.
