Zapdos ex Pros and Cons

Thundering Hurricane Deals Up To 200 High-Powered Damage

Zapdos ex’s Attack can deal up to 200 damage with 3 Energy. Among 3-Energy Attacks, its maximum damage output is top-tier.

Be Aware Of The Luck Factor

This Attack involves flipping four coins, with 50 damage dealt for each heads, averaging around 100 damage. However, the element of luck should be kept in mind.

Peck Can Be Used As Bridge to Thundering Hurricane

Zapdos ex’s Peck deals 20 damage with 1 Energy, allowing it to be used from the early game. It serves as a bridge until you’ve gathered 3 Energy to use Thundering Hurricane.

Ideal for an Early-Game Wall

Zapdos ex has 130 HP, which is high for a Basic Pokemon, and only requires 1 retreat Energy, making it suitable as an early-game wall, especially in Lightning Type decks like those featuring Pikachu ex. Its ability to deal damage from just 1 Energy is also an advantage.
