Zebstrika (Japanese: ゼブライカ, Hepburn: Zeburaika) (zehb-STRY-kuh[1]) is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
Biology[]
Physiology[]
Zebstrika is a large equine Pokémon that resembles a zebra. It has a black coat with white lightning bolt-shaped stripes on its moderately fat body, a white spiky tail with a star-shaped tip, and somewhat a plump rump and thighs. Its small ears are blue inside, like Blitzle. Instead of one lightning bolt-shaped appendage on its head, it now carries two, and has a spikier mane that runs all the way down its back.
Behavior[]
Zebstrika is a wild, ill-tempered Pokémon that is easily angered. When enraged, it blasts powerful bolts of lightning from its mane and runs wild. Like Blitzle, they can be found in herds averaging about 20 or so members. Once a single Zebstrika in a herd charges, the rest of the herd charges as well, leading to a stampede within a matter of seconds. like their pre-evolutions, they communicate by flashing their manes in a variety of patterns, though their stripes can now light up and flash as well. They often attack with little regard for their own safety.
Special Abilities[]
Zebstrika are extremely fast runners. When they charge at full speed, the sound of thunder follows them, as they run as fast as a lightning strike.
Evolution[]
Zebstrika is the evolved form of Blitzle as of level 27.
