Collector Insights
Zapdos is a Pokémon TCG card featuring the artist Kouki Saitou. It belongs to the EX Battle Boost set, released on July 13, 2013. The card has 120 HP and includes two distinct attacks. The first attack, Random Spark, requires one Lightning and two Colorless energy, dealing 50 damage to a single opponent’s Pokémon while ignoring Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon. The second attack, Thundering Hurricane, demands one Lightning and three Colorless energy, inflicting 50 damage multiplied by the number of heads from flipping four coins. Both attacks emphasize strategic damage distribution, with the latter introducing probabilistic outcomes. The card’s design aligns with its electric-type theme, reflecting its association with lightning-based abilities. Its presence in the EX Battle Boost set highlights its role in competitive play during that era. The combination of direct and probabilistic damage options provides versatility in gameplay scenarios.
