The high-flying Zapdos [G] (12/99) crackles with lightning as it swoops into the game! Zapdos [G] can use its two moves to quickly build Energy levels then deliver a thunderous blow to the Defending Pokémon! The Charge Beam attack rapidly loads up on Energy whilst the Lightning Strike attack delivers 40 damage... or 80 damage if you choose to discard all the Lightning Energy attached to Zapdos [G]! Since Charge Beam makes it so easy to replenish Zapdos [G], it makes sense to do the maximum damage as often as possible.
