Oops, forgot about that. I thought that since Gligar was also a Flying-type, electric moves would affect it. Like Aron, who is Steel/Rock. Electricity affects him even though he's a Rock-type, which is supposed to be immune to electric attacks. So yeah, I thought Gligar was like him. XD My mistake.
Ground-types (and Shedinja) are the only Pokemon immune to Electric attacks. Electric hits Rock for 1x effectiveness.
I think the confusion arose with the anime, which allowed Brock's Onix to be damaged by Thundershock... but if you try zapping something like Sudowoodo or Nosepass (which are pure Rock-types), they take the damage.
