Zapdos-EX is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 170 HP. It features two attacks: Agility, which costs one Lightning and one Colorless energy to deal 30 damage and grants a defensive effect by flipping a coin to prevent all attack effects during the opponent’s next turn, and Powervolt, requiring four energy (two Lightning and two Colorless) to deal 80+ damage with an additional 40 boost if Plasma Energy is attached. The card’s artist is Eske Yoshinob. It has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and a weakness to Lightning-type attacks, doubling damage. The retreat cost is one Colorless energy, and the converted retreat cost is 1. This card belongs to the Black & White series, released as part of the Plasma Storm set in February 2013. Its rarity is Rare Holo EX, and it includes a rule stating that when a Pokémon-EX is knocked out, the opponent takes two Prize cards.
