2nd Gen Electabuzz...worth training?

[Phish]

I just caught one at the route in front of the power plant. I started training and got him up to level 35. Should I continue training and whats a good moveset?

 

[Flash Fire]

i think electabuzz are good but wat i like to do better is get an elekid and raise it from there

 

[elwappo08]

Definently, I have one, they're worth it.
Works well.

 

[Phish]

Electabuzz is really good. I just trained him up to 42

 

[elwappo08]

Tell me about it, mine's like level 32 though.
How's the 42?

 

[Virtual Chatot]

As previously said, its better to raise it from an Elekid.

But it is worth it either way.

 

[Precious Tears]

I think Electabuzz is more worth training than Pikachu =3

 

[Phish]

Tell me about it, mine's like level 32 though.
How's the 42?

He's very easy to train. I put an exp. share on him and battled the elite 4. Now, he kills like half the E4 with Thunder and Ice punch

 

[elwappo08]

Amazing what level, mate?
Nice work on beating the Bges'+E4 that quick. Excellent.

I hate the look of electabuz he is just one pokemon that annoys me, but i love elkid and now the new one, elcatbire.

If i chose just to keep elkid and not evolve it, what are the pros and cons of that, if any?

 

[Harry Blue5]

The cons are that the stats aren't as powerful. The pros are... look, just go to bulbapedia. They have good articles on both Pokémon. Decide for yourself.

I wound raise him as he leatns some good moves like Ice Punch, fire punch ect.

Off Topic: WOOT 100th Post!!

He's at 45 now I think. Im gonna stop training him for a bit and try and hatch my Evee egg

 

[elwappo08]

I appreciate the update, what's Electabuzz's moveset?

 

[Phish]

Thunder Punch
Ice punch
Swift
Quick Attack

He gets Thunderbolt at 48 and Thunder at like 57

 

[elwappo08]

That sure is a decent pokemon mine's a level 33 currently.

 

[Moana Kai]

Electabuzz are worth training. A good moveset is this.

Thundershock
Thunderpunch
Swift
Thunderbolt

 

[smile!]

^No. He needs to be more diverse. He would seem to be something like
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Punch
-Fire Punch/Thunder Wave
-Psychic/filler
Thunderbolt for STAB, Ice Punch to cover his Ground weakness and the other two are mainly for coverage.
