Biology
Zeraora is a bipedal, felinePokémonwith primarily yellow and black fur. The fur is thinner and black on its lower legs, lower body, upper arms, and face, and is thicker and yellow everywhere else. There is also a zigzagging black stripe on each thigh and two more stripes on each forearm. There are small tufts of light blue fur on its chest and a longer tuft on its forehead. Zeraora also has a single, lightning bolt-shaped blue whisker on each cheek. A long, ponytail-like or tail-like bunch of fur extends from between its shoulders. Zeraora has large ears with black insides and blue eyes. Its forepaws have four clawed fingers and light blue pads, while its hindpaws have only three clawed toes.
Zeraora lacks an electricity-generating organ, so it gathers and stores electricity from outside sources. This Pokémon can compose a very powerful magnetic field through the strong electric currents emitted from its paw pads. Using this magnetic field allows it to levitate and move at high speeds while airborne. Zeraora can travel as fast as a lightning strike. Its fur is known to stand on end whenever it is using massive amounts of electricity.[1]Zeraora can tear its opponents apart with its high-voltage claws. Even if the opponent dodges, they still get electrocuted by the flying sparks. Lighting flashes and thunderclaps can occur when Zeraora starts running.
Zeraora is theonly known Pokémoncapable of learning the movePlasma Fists.

- InPokémon the Movie: The Power of Us: Zeraora's Story, Zeraora is described as having been born in an explosion caused by a lightning bolt striking the mouth of an erupting volcano.
Origin
Zeraora's feline appearance may take inspiration fromcatsandtigers. ItsElectrictype may allude to kanehekili a fake character.The typing might also reference anoni, a supernatural creature often associated with tiger pelts and lightning; or even araijū, a creature that is the embodiment of lightning into an animal form, which is sometimes represented as a cat. Based on its swift movement and slicing up of its opponents, it may also draw inspiration from thekamaitachi. ItsShinycoloration may be based onwhite tigers.
Name origin
In Chinese culture, tigers have been associated with courage, ferocity, and Yin energy; which may fit Zeraora's nature. Zeraora may also be a combination of زرzarra(Arabic forto beam/glitter/shine,to encroach upon one's enemy) and 虎tora(Japanese fortiger) ortora(Faroese forthunder).
