Zapdos (サンダー Sandā, Thunder) is a fictional creature from the Pokémon media franchise. It appears as a Poké Ball Pokémon in Melee.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
As a Poké Ball Pokémon
When Zapdos makes its rare appearance out of Poké Balls, it uses ThunderShock as its attack. A current of electricity will surround Zapdos. Any character caught in the current of electricity (other than the summoner) will not be able to move (but can DI out of the electricity, similar to a Smart Bomb) and will take (if caught in it from the beginning) 81% damage. As such, it is considered as one of the most situational Pokémon, as it is hard to hit with, but it hits hard.
As a trophy
Zapdos is featured as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various Single-player Regular Matches. The trophy description is:
- Zapdos flaps its wings, and summer storms appear, throwing lightning every which way. It's said that you can hear this legendary Pokémon coming, as its wings make a very distinctive popping sound as it flies. In addition to electrical moves like the dreaded Thunder, it also wields a vicious move called Drill Peck.
- Pokémon Red & Blue, 09/98
In Super Smash Bros. 4
Zapdos appears rarely in the background of Prism Tower in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
