Collector Insights
Zapdos G is a Lightning-type Pokémon from the Platinum series, released as part of the Arceus set on November 4, 2009. It has 90 HP and requires two Colorless energy to retreat. The card features a Rare Holo rarity and is illustrated by artist Ryota Saito. Zapdos G possesses two attacks: Charge Beam, which costs one Colorless energy and deals 10 damage, allowing the player to search their discard pile for an Energy card to attach to Zapdos G, and Lightning Strike, which costs two Lightning and one Colorless energy, dealing 40 damage. If the player discards all Lightning energy attached to Zapdos G before using Lightning Strike, the attack’s damage increases to 80. The Pokémon has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, but is weak to Lightning-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its Pokédex number is 145, identifying it as the electric bird Pokémon.
