[SET COMMENTS]
* Eerie Impulse enables Zapdos to beat the likes of Primarina, Sylveon, non-Choice Band Hisuian Goodra, Spectrier, and Volcarona.
* Clear Amulet helps Zapdos by blocking moves that lower Special Defense like Fake Tears from Sylveon, Acid Spray from Hisuian Goodra and Icy Wind from Primarina.
* This EV spread allows Zapdos to survive Timid Choice Specs Spectrier's Hyper Beam and grants good chances of surviving Adamant Urshifu-R's Choice Band Surging Strikes.
* Zapdos should always Eerie Impulse on the first turn against Volcanion, since Choice Scarf Volcanion can outspeed and 2HKO Zapdos if it uses Thunderbolt.
* Zapdos struggles against physical attackers like Ursaluna, Regidrago and non- Choice Specs Hoopa-U. Pokemon that can outspeed and deal super effective damage to Zapdos like Meowscarada, Chien-Pao, and Jolly Choice Band Landorus-T also beat it. It is advised for Zapdos to be used with a Steel-type Pokemon like Corviknight to tackle these weaknesses.
