Zapdos-Galar @ Figy Berry
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Agility
- Brave Bird
- Close Combat
- Bulk Up
This bad boy absolutely slaps on any team that can get two layers of hazards up. I've been using it on hyper offense and it is by far my MVP. How do people deal with Zappy-G? Two main ways: Corviknight / Toxapex, or something to outspeed it. Agility completely negatives the latter and Bulk Up destroys Corv straight up and Tox on the switch. And if they try to Defog on you and you get to +2 speed that's the ball game.
Adamant is chosen to 2HKO Unaware Clefable with some luck or chip. Figy Berry gives you more turns to use Brave Bird. Since it is usually self-activated, you will be in the <1/3 HP range almost every game, making a superior choice to Sitrus Berry. Sitrus can be used with Acrobatics but you miss the Clef 2HKO and Corviknight is more annoying.
