Below we have detailed how to catch a Galarian Zapdos in the new DLC.

How to Catch a Galarian Zapdos

After you first encounter all the three birds in the game when you go to Dyna Tree Hill, you can now start your hunt to catch one of these new Pokémon. All three Galarian Pokémon which are the Galarian Zapdos, Galarian Moltres, and the Galarian Articuno can be found in separate locations.

In this case, where you have to catch the Galarian Zapdos, you have to go to the Rolling Fields of the Wild Area in the map of the base game. You can do so by going to the fast travel location at the Meetup Spot of the Wild Area. When you travel to it, make your way to the Rolling Fields.

Now as we have mentioned before, Galarian Zapdos is a tricky Pokémon to catch, especially since it can outpace you even if you boost the speed of your bicycle. The trick here is to be sneaky and to cut the Pokémon off. The first few times you get near the Galarian Zapdos if will get startled and quickly dash away. When this happens, get on your bicycle and follow it as quickly as you can.

When the Galarian Zapdos slows down and gets on with its business, you need to sneak up on it and cut it off whenever it tries to dash away. At some point in your chase, the game will give you a chance to cut off the Galarian Zapdos, where you can run into its path and prepare for battle. Now all you are left with is to fight and capture the Pokémon once you are done.
