Master beating Zapdos in Pokemon Unite. Coordinate your team, focus fire, and secure the last hit for a game-changing Aeos Energy buff.

·Multi-source verified (78/78)

Zapdos is the most game-changing objective, spawning at the 2:00 minute mark in the center of the map. Defeating it grants a massive amount of Aeos Energy to your team and makes all enemy goal zones vulnerable to instant scoring.

  • All-In: All 5 converge on Zapdos. This is the decisive team fight.
  • Last Hit is Key: Only the team that lands the final blow gets the Zapdos buff. Focus fire and save burst moves.
  • Vision & Control: Control the area around Zapdos with vision and crowd control.
  • Don't Overcommit: If you're losing the team fight, sometimes it's better to try and steal Zapdos with a single high-damage move rather than wiping.
  • Post-Zapdos Push: If you get Zapdos, immediately push all lanes and score. If the enemy gets it, defend your goals at all costs.
