How to catch Zapdos in Pokemon Indigo Disk

Hey there, fellow Pokemon trainers! Are you ready to catch one of the most elusive legendary Pokemon out there? That's right, we're talking about Zapdos! Zapdos is an electric/flying-type legendary Pokemon that made its first appearance in the first generation of the Pokemon series. It is one of the three Legendary birds alongside Articuno and Moltres. Zapdos is an incredibly powerful Pokemon with impressive stats and abilities that make it a formidable opponent in battles.But don't worry, with this handy guide, you'll be able to catch Zapdos in no time. Just follow these steps:

Zapdos is exclusive to Pokemon Violet and can only be found at the top of the Poco Path Lighthouse. But before you can even attempt to catch it, you must first complete 10 Blueberry Quests at Blueberry Academy. Blueberry Academy is a Pokemon academy that players can find in the Blueberry City, which is the second city in Pokemon Violet. The academy offers various quests that players can complete in exchange for rewards and items. Once you've completed the 10 quests, you'll be able to move on to the next step.

Once you've completed the quests, head over to the Poco Path Lighthouse and interact with Zapdos. In order to catch Zapdos, you'll need to battle it first. Zapdos is an electric/flying-type Pokemon, which means that it's weak against Rock and Ice-type moves. It's important to bring a Ground-type Pokemon like Golurk into battle since Zapdos' moves don't affect them. Golurk is a Ground/Ghost-type Pokemon that players can catch in Pokemon Violet. It's a good choice for battling Zapdos since it has high defense and can learn powerful Ground-type moves like Earthquake and Bulldoze.

Once you have Golurk in your team, it's time to battle Zapdos. To avoid fainting Zapdos, inflict status effects on it and use Fury Swipes. Status effects like paralysis, sleep, or poison can make it easier to catch Zapdos since they lower its health over time. Fury Swipes is a Normal-type move that hits two to five times in a row and can deal a decent amount of damage without causing too much damage. It's essential to be patient during the battle and avoid using moves that can cause too much damage or faint Zapdos.

Once Zapdos is low on health, it's time to catch it. It's recommended to use Ground-type Pokemon since Zapdos is weak against Ice-type and Rock-type moves. This means that moves like Ice Beam or Stone Edge can deal a lot of damage and potentially faint Zapdos. It's better to use moves like Bulldoze or Earthquake that can lower its health without causing too much damage. Once Zapdos is low on health, start throwing Poke Balls until you successfully capture it. It's recommended to use Ultra Balls or Dusk Balls since they have a higher catch rate than regular Poke Balls.

And voila! You just caught yourself a legendary Pokemon. Just like other Legendary Pokemon such as Articuno, Zapdos has stats, level, and abilities that make it a formidable opponent. It's important to train and level up Zapdos to make the most out of its abilities and moves. Players can also use items like Rare Candy or Calcium to increase Zapdos' stats. Zapdos' signature move is Thunderbolt, which is a powerful electric-type move that can deal a lot of damage. It's a good idea to teach this move to Zapdos if it doesn't already know it.
