Zapdos Released Into Pokémon Go
The official Pokémon Go twitter account has announced that Zapdos, the legendary (and Legendary) bird Pokémon has been released into the wild. This means trainers can defeat it, capture it, or just gawk and take pictures, if you want.
After the diasastrous launch of Legendary Pokémon at Pokémon Go Fest last month, Niantic has been putting out fires left and right with the game, so here's hoping Zapdos is not the cause of any such fires. You can read about the festival's trials and tribulations here.
Sound off in the comments when you're able to see one. Heck, also sound off in the comments for how old you were when you realized the Uno, Dos, Tres naming scheme of the three Legendary birds.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
