Zapdos questions

Is Zapdos a PokéSurvivor starter?

No. Zapdos joins the collection from the Kanto gacha, or as a wild shiny if you defeat one.

What type is Zapdos in PokéSurvivor?

Zapdos is Electric / Flying. Attack type follows the move, not the Pokémon, so a Normal move such as Tackle still deals Normal damage.

Can Zapdos be shiny?

Yes. A wild Zapdos is shiny at 1/4096, and a gacha copy is shiny at 1/100. Defeating the wild shiny adds it to the collection.

Is Zapdos a rift legendary?

Yes. Zapdos only appears in a distortion rift, not in normal waves or as a timed boss.
