Usually it is not the zerk that clogs, rather the small grease passages inside the component being greased. High pressure helps in these situations.
 
A pneumatic grease gun is a little higher pressure than a lever grease gun and a lot higher than a trigger grease gun.

They do have tools to deal with stuck zerks. Typically a tool to blast some penetrating oil into the zerk with a hammer blow.
