Galarian Zapdos

Description

The Galarian Zapdos SWSH283 Black Star Promo represents a distinct entry in the 2019 Pokémon Trading Card Game SWSH Black Star Promos series. Illustrated by Rianti Hidayat, this Basic Fighting-type Pokémon carries 110 HP and serves as a valuable component for collectors focusing on the Generation VIII Galar region roster. From a gameplay perspective, this card offers strategic utility through its Strong Legs Charge ability. This effect allows players to attach up to two Fighting Energy cards from their hand to Galarian Zapdos when played from the hand onto the Bench. This mechanic supports aggressive strategies by accelerating energy attachment for its primary attack, Zapper Kick. The attack deals 70 damage but includes a powerful secondary effect: discarding all Energy from the Pokémon to paralyze the opponent's Active Pokémon. This risk-reward dynamic makes it an interesting piece for TCG enthusiasts who appreciate complex interaction within the card's rules. Collectors often seek out SWSH283 to complete specific sets or to build themed collections around Fighting-type Pokémon. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a personal archive of Galarian legends, adding this promo to your collection adds depth to your understanding of the 2019 TCG landscape.
