Zapdos

Description

Released in 2022 as part of the Pokémon GO set, this Zapdos trading card card carries the catalog number 029/078. The card features a reverse holo finish, offering a subtle shimmer that contrasts with the standard foil treatment found on other cards in the series. From a gameplay perspective, Zapdos is a Basic Lightning Pokémon with 120 HP. Its standout feature is the Lightning Symbol ability, which enhances the damage output of your other Basic Lightning Pokémon, excluding Zapdos itself. This support role makes it a strategic asset for decks built around the Lightning type. The card also includes an Electric Ball attack that deals 110 damage but requires two Lightning Energy and one Colorless Energy to activate. Collectors often seek out this card for its connection to the Pokémon GO mobile phenomenon, which brought the franchise to a wider audience. The reverse holo treatment adds a layer of visual interest that appeals to those who appreciate finish variations. Whether you are building a themed deck, completing the Pokémon GO set, or simply adding to your library of legendary Pokémon cards, this release offers both nostalgic value and mechanical depth. The regulation mark F ensures it remains part of the current legal framework for the trading card game.
