During your exploration of the
Crown Tundra, you will have the opportunity to catch loads of Legendary Pokemon! Most Legendary Pokemon will be obtained through
Dynamax Adventures; however, sixteen Legendary Pokemon, both new and old, can be captured in the
Overworld. One of these select few Legendary Pokemon is none other than
Galarian Zapdos!
Players will have the opportunity to find and capture
Galarian Zapdos while undertaking
Peony's Legendary Clue #3, the same he calls
A Legendary Tree Of A Legendary Three, which focuses around the
Galarian Legendary Bird Trio. At the far southern tip of the
Crown Tundra is
Dyna Tree Hill, home to a giant red
Dynamax Tree. As you arrive to said tree, you will see
Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos and
Galarian Moltres, with the three quickly attacking each other. However, just as they begin to battle, the three will notice your trainer and then disperse in different directions.
Unlike the other two Galarian Legendary Birds,
Galarian Zapdos will roam the original
Wild Area of Pokemon Sword and Shield in the middle of
The Galar Region. Finding Galarian Zapdos is pretty simple, as all one must do is fly to the
Meetup Spot and enter the Wild Area to see it. Once you find Galarian Zapdos, it will attempt to flee from you. Make sure to be of your bike so you can keep up with it. Eventually, Galarian Zapdos will begin to slow down due to exhaustion, allowing you to go into battle with it.
Galarian Zapdos will be at Level 70, knowing the moves Thunderous Kick, Drill Peck, Reversal, and Focus Energy. Since Galarian Zapdos isn't the strongest Pokemon in the
Crown Tundra, it is recommended not to use your
Master Ball on it. Instead, stick to using Ultra Balls. Galarian Zapdos can be weakened for easier captures by lowering its
HP and paralyzing it.
