It is a legendary pokémon. And it's already in Pokémon GO. Ready to be captured. Niantic has just announced through its official Twitter account that the legendary Pokémon Zapdos can already be captured To get it, you will have a very specific period: from 7 to 14 of August.
Pokémon masters will have the opportunity to get the creature within Raid Battles or Raids in Pokémon GO The news about the availability of Zapdos arrives right after players have had a chance to capture Moltres (July 31-August 7), but also other Legendaries like Lugia and Articuno.
With this novelty, Pokémon GO will close a first round of hunting for Legendary Pokémon. Although apparently, Niantic Labs still needs to announce the arrival of a couple more creatures. It would be Ho-Oh and Mewtwo. Especially since they have appeared in a developer trailer. Unfortunately, there are no more dates on the horizon for now.

Zapdos, the Legendary Pokémon
Watch out for Zapdos, the legendary pokémon. Until now we've had to work hard to get other legendaries like Articuno and Moltres. But Zapdos has an added difficulty This creature is, in case you didn't know it yet, an electric and flying pokémon.This is important to take into account, because it makes the difficulty to capture it much higher.
You'll have more trouble beating it, because it doesn't include what's called a “double weakness”. What does this mean? Well, your pokémon will not be so powerful to defeat the bug. The best thing to do in this case will be to arm yourself with a team of up to five people, especially if we are level 30 or lower.
In this case, in addition to taking into account that it is an electric and flying pokémon, you have to know that Zapdos is especially susceptible to ice and rock attacksIn any case, it is best to resort to the stone type, because most ice Pokémon have water as their second type.
It seems to be, finally, that the best pokémon to find Zapdos faster are the following: Tyranytar, Jynx, Piloswine, Rhydon, Dragonite and Golem If you don't have them yet, you should try to get them: because, some more than others, they can be lethal to Zapdos. Be that as it may, remember that to capture Zapdos you will only have time until August 14, which will be next Monday. You can start from now.
Pokémon Go, a busy summer
Pokémon Go players are having a busy summer. In addition to these extraordinary creatures, it seems that Niantic Labs would like to release other creatures. It is believed that from this weekend until August 21st, Pokémon like Kangaskhan and Unown could be spotted (and caught) in some European cities.
On July 23, Pokémon GO registered, according to data from Sensor Tower, very powerful data in terms of income. And it is that coinciding with the arrival of Articuno Lugia, the company managed to reach 5.8 million dollars in revenue. It was the first foray into the game of the famous legendary pokémon.
But it hasn't all been good news for Niantic Labs. The disastrous organization of the Pokémon Fest held in Chicago. As players struggled to capture as many creatures as possible, there came a time when the game crashed and people got angry (and very angry), chanting We can't play.
