Zeraora is Pokemon number 807 in the official Pokedex. It is an electric type and this version comes with some unique qualities. Those who receive it will find that it has the unique move Plasma Fists. It will also have the item Air Balloon that makes it immune to ground-type moves. That’s useful considering that electric types are normally weak to ground types.

Japan has already had Zeraora distributed in its region. That just ended recently on September 30. It began distribution there on July 13. The release was tied around the launch of the latest movie. But the movie has yet to release overseas. Here, it’s known as a different title and will be called Pokemon: The Power of Us. You can find out more about the movie here.
