Zapdos
Plan this partner in PokéBonk
This analysis describes the Zapdos League partner and its evolution line, not necessarily the current form alone.
Zapdos combines general stat bonuses with passive ranged lightning on several targets. A focused Electric kit, large thunderclaps and a rain-starting Ultimate give it strong pressure without a fragile opening condition.
Trade-off: Random target selection and limited passive target counts can leave gaps in a dense pack.
Passive: Electric Pressure
Ultimate progression: Legendary Storm
Curated kit: Bolt Beak (Lv. 1) · Wildbolt Storm (Lv. 2) · Thunderclap (Lv. 4) · Electro Shot (Lv. 7)
Later moves become eligible offers; they are not automatically equipped.
League analysis and kit: v0.8.25, checked October 23, 2026. Individual unlock checklists and linked builds carry their own source dates.
