Zapdos is getting some rare new official artwork. The Pokémon Company has revealed a new design featuring the Gen 1 Legendary electric bird, created for a manhole cover set to be installed in Japan, CBR reports.

The reveal continues one of the franchise's most charming traditions. Japan's Pokémon manhole covers — known as "Poké Lids" — have been appearing across the country for years, each featuring unique, officially commissioned artwork that never repeats between locations. They have become genuine tourist attractions, with fans traveling to track down specific covers the way they might hunt rare spawns in Pokémon GO.

New bespoke art for a first-generation Legendary is a notable pick. Zapdos, alongside Articuno and Moltres, has been part of the series since the original 1996 games, but fresh official designs of the trio don't surface often, which tends to make these installations an event for longtime fans.

The company unveiled the design ahead of the cover's installation, so collectors and Legendary bird enthusiasts will want to keep an eye out for where it lands.
