The electric generator inside Zekrom's tail starts to spin and glow light blue with electricity. Zekrom then clenches its fists and its body becomes surrounded in yellow electricity with large yellow lightning bolts coming off it as well. Zekrom then flies down at the opponent and slams its body into it. | |||
