Power Plant
Like in Red, Blue, and Yellow, the Power Plant is located on the southern part of Route 10; near the entrance to Rock Tunnel (you'll need surf to reach The Power Plant). More importantly however, it's the home Zapdos: one of the legendary bird Pokémon.
Inside the Power Plant
This place is abandoned and home to many electric type Pokémon. Navigating through the place is pretty straitforward; no special HM's are needed. There's a few items here:2
- Elixir
- Max Potion
- Thunder Stone
- TM 17 (Protect)
- TM 25 (Thunder)
There's also two Electrodes posing as items in the Power Plant. One is in the adjacent room to the Plant's Entrance, and the other is in the far top right room on the left across from the Thunder Stone. It's up to you wether you want to engage them in battle.
Capturing Zapdos
1Zapdos, like all the other legendary birds is at level 50. Since it is a flying type, it is neutral to electric based attacks despite electric being its own type. As always, save before engaging, try and bring its HP as low as possible, inflict status effects, and have a lot of Ultra Balls.
