The off-brand version of Galarian Zapdos, aka Flamigo, has a niche on Fighting teams as a revenge killer that can hit Ghost-types with its Fighting STAB due to Scrappy. Close Combat is used for a powerful Fighting STAB that can even hit Ghost-types such as Dragapult, Gholdengo, Froslass, Sableye, and Skeledirge. Brave Bird is used for a powerful Flying STAB. Even though Facade doesn't provide much coverage, Facade is used to allow Flamigo to do something should it get afflicted by a status condition, especially burns. U-turn allows Flamigo to pivot and create momentum for your team.
