Zapdos Pokédex Information
Zapdos is an Electric / Flying type Pokémon that first appeared in Pokémon Red and Blue which released internationally on 28th September 1998. It does not evolve.
Zapdos is a bird that is based on the Native American mythological Thunderbird. It is one of the three legendary birds, the others being Moltres and Articuno. This Pokémon is a large yellow bird with triangular eyes and a long pointed beak. It has four toes on each foot which end with sharp talons. Zapdos has complete control over electricity. There are tales of Zapdos nesting in the dark depths of pitch-black thunderclouds.
When it appears in the Galar region, Zapdos takes on Galarian form. In this form its feathers are a deep orange while its beak, legs and talons are black. When its feathers rub together, they produce a crackling sound like the zapping of electricity. That’s why this Pokémon is called Zapdos.
