4th Gen Which Electric Pokemon Did You Use?

Since I found a need for an Electric-type on my team quite early on in the game, I caught a Shinx more or less straight away, that ended up being my Luxray.

I would always always pick Ampharos for nostalgia in HGSS, though I did that too much and I'm forcing myself not to, lol. I love Ampharos. :]

I used Luxray once and it was realllyyy slow, Electivire was alright for one time use, after that I didn't really use any other electrics ingame.

If I do choose to use an electric type in a Sinnoh run, it'll always be the Shinx line. I can get them early and train them well and they are fairly useful.

In Johto it'll always be Ampharos because it is adorable and pretty good as well. :3

I for some reason don't go with Electric types all that often. I did use an Magnezone once though in Platinum, and it was pretty good.

I used a Ampharos that I traded over.

Luxray, just because I love it, and it was like the first pokemon I encountered. Besides Bidoof :P

On my first play through of HeartGold my initial team didn't have one, but then I migrated my Electabuzz from FireRed and evolved that into Electivire during the Kanto part of the journey. In my most recent play through I used Ampharos.

I didn't use an Electric type in Pearl. I really need to play through that game again, but since it was my least favourite of the main series games I haven't had the motivation to.

Electivire all the way, because Electabuzz is one of my favourites, if I'm playing causally.

On the competitive side, I use Luxray quite often.

Other: Jolteon. Jolteon is awesome.

In Pearl I didn't use an electric type, I had a Gengar with thunderbolt to cover for it.

In SS I currently have a Jolteon

My last run of diamond I used a Raichu. Used luxray during the first playthrough.
On my plat nuzlocke I'm using Magnezone.
HG is usually Ampharos <3 I'm currently using Lanturn on my current playthrough :3

I used Ampharos on my team during the main story in SoulSilver, I boxed her afterwards but she helped me catch Suicune.

I personally used Electrodein HG and none in Diamond.

I used Pachirisu in Diamond because everyone was using Luxray. Plus it's adorable.

The shinx line, because they were avaliable very early in the game and Luxray has awesome attack so he was very useful in battles for me. Also I thought Luxray's design was really cool so I wanted one. :)

I've never been much of a fan of Electric type Pokemon. I've always found that they have rather limited movepools compared to the other types. That might just be my lack of experience with them, but I've yet to find an Electric type that I really like. Usually I find myself a Psychic type (or another Pokemon that can easily learn Electric type attacks) and teach it Thunderbolt.

I have, however, used both Electivire and Luxray at some point, but I suppose that when I've been playing Platinum that Magnezone has appeared on my team more often than the other two, so I'll have to choose Other this time around.

Ampharos found its way onto my team in SS multiple times, mostly because it's so easy to get in the early stages of the game, and right before a Flying type gym no less! Magneton and Lanturn appeared once or twice, but less so than Ampharos did. As I mentioned before though, a Kadabra with Thunderbolt was far more common than Ampharos ever was.

When I played Diamond my first time I used Luxray. On HeartGold I used Ampharos.
