Zeraora is a bipedal, feline Pokémon with a striking yellow and black color scheme. Its thick yellow fur covers most of its body, while thinner black fur marks its lower legs, lower body, upper arms, and face. Black zigzagging stripes run across each thigh and forearm, and it sports small light blue tufts on its chest with a longer one on its forehead. Each cheek has a single lightning bolt-shaped blue whisker. The Pokémon's most distinctive feature is the long, ponytail-like bunch of fur extending from between its shoulders. It has large ears with black insides, blue eyes, four clawed fingers with light blue pads on its forepaws, and only three clawed toes on its hindpaws.
What makes Zeraora truly remarkable is its speed and electric prowess. Unlike most Electric-types, it doesn't generate its own electricity—instead, it gathers and stores it from external sources. The real trick is what it does with all that power: it creates an incredibly strong magnetic field through the electric currents flowing from its paw pads. This field lets it levitate and zip around at insane speeds, moving as fast as a lightning strike itself. When Zeraora gets serious and unleashes massive amounts of electricity, its fur stands completely on end. Its claws become supercharged, capable of shredding opponents, and even if someone manages to dodge an attack, stray sparks can still fry them. Just watching it run can trigger lightning flashes and thunderclaps.
The numbers back up the hype: Zeraora holds the record as the fastest Pokémon ever discovered, clocking in at roughly 720,000 miles per hour according to official Pokécology records.
