Map Data

Description Zapdos, or Thunder, known as the Electric Pokémon, is a legendary Pokémon, one of the legendary birds, along with Articuno and Moltres. It may be based on the thunderbird. Zapdos has the form of a large bird with black and yellow plumage. Its spiky feathers make it look like it is made of lightning. Its tail feathers stick out in several directions, furthering this illusion. A large crest of feathers decorates its head, and distinctive black rings encircle its eyes. Its beak is very long and thin. Zapdos is always seen in conjunction with thunderstorms, because it gathers energy from the electricity in the atmosphere, and is said to live in such clouds. It also causes massive crackling and snapping sounds when it flies; these are contributed to the lightning bolts it is said to shed when airborne.
It is interesting to note that the last letters of its name, "dos" ("two" in Spanish), suggest it is the second of the three legendary bird Pokémon. This is reinforced by the fact that the last letters of the names of its fellow legendary birds suggest that they are the first and third. They are Articuno ("uno", which is "one" in Spanish) and Moltres ("tres", which is "three" in Spanish).
Zapdos is found in a Power Plant off the coast of the Rock Tunnel near Cerulean City in Pokémon Red and Blue, and related games. When released from a Poké Ball in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Zapdos uses a powerful ThunderShock that hits opponents several times to produce a substantial amount of damage. Zapdos is featured in Pokémon The Movie 2000 together with the other two Legendary birds, Articuno and Moltres. It appears that Zapdos communicates through electricity as it shocks Pikachu to communicate. Zapdos is also a wandering Pokémon in Pokémon Platinum.
This is a dedication to Zapdos because he just became my first ever level 100 Pokémon on October 10th, at 2:37 pm. Congratulations Zapdos, in all your glorious 11,627 objects.

Basically I succeeded in my only goal in the Pokémon games, which is to train my favorite Pokémon, Zapdos, to level 100 (which is 1,250,000 exp for all Pokémon). Zapdos is just plain awesome. This bird is not any ordinary bird. Standing as tall as a normal human, he can, of course, fly. When high in the sky, he can make it rain. Then he freely controls the lightning.

His stats at lvl. 100 are:
Hp: 300 At: 195 Df: 187
Sa: 348 Sd: 191 Sp: 274
Notice the particularly high special attack, and the rather high health points and speed. This is due to EV training Zapdos in 1/2 Special attack, 1/4 Health, and 1/4 speed.

His moves are:
Drill Peck, Discharge, Rain Dance, and the best move in the game, THUNDER!

P.S. Please do not rate based on how much you like Pokémon, but rather on the map.

Thanks Wikipedia for the information.

OH,,, AND IAM THE 180TH PERSON TO RATE HERE ;D

WELLDONE!!!

THIS IS SIMPLY AMAZING BUT TO THINK THAT THIS WAS DRAWN BY SIMPLY A N-GAME NOT PHOTOSHOP,,, ALSO I DONT KNOW ANYONE CAN RIVAL THIS AS THE TALENT REQUIRED, SPECIALLY WITH PATIENCE TO MAKE THIS N-ART WITH THIS SIMPLY LONG AND ANNOYING TASK WHILE MAKING IT (THOUGH YOU WOULD BECOME A KNOWN AURTHOR):)
THROUGH I WOULD THINK ITS ALSO HARD TO MAKE IT WITH THIS ACCURACY EVEN WITH A UMM... THOSE PENS TO WRITE IN TO THE COMP.

ALSO THIS ART DESERVES 5 OUT OF 5



ALTHOUGH I CANT GIVE A DEMO DATA CAUSE ITS STILL LOADING :)

yea, Zapdos
5/5
I've seen a lot worse and 2:1 is actually not bad for something like this ;) And this map still has some attention too. I'll never forget the feeling of having a map hit 100 ratings :)

Nar

Lugia is coolest. Lugia pwns. 5 btw.

xD

Call me old classed I guess. Technically, mew and mewtwo are old and they beat Zapdos =P

But Zapdos is the coolest... electric type and flying! geez, too cool ;D

:p

I refuse to be outclassed with pokemon knowledge ._.

=P

Zapdos is the coolest.

Zapdos isn't the strongest because the newer generation of pkmn players "require" higher powered stuff to be satisfied... aka spoiled!

Zapdos is he coolest, enough said =P

... apparently not... Plus my zapdos n-art far outbeats the registeel n-art... wait! their is not registeel n-art! hehehe...
