I like magnezone since I like steel types alot, but I do like jolteon, too. I was just wondering and also bored. Manectric looks cool though...
My admiration goes out to Elekid, Electabuzz, and Electivire.
Every time I restarted my red version I simply had to catch myself an Electabuzz. I do believe it was the only electric-type Pokémon that I actually gave a hoot about! It was so powerful, I suppose I just couldn't resist it.
This favoritism didn't cease there, either. Upon the release of the second generation games, I simply had to hatch myself an Elekid. I do believe I wanted it more than I did Electabuzz in the previous generation. I grew to like Elekid and Electabuzz far above that of other electric-type Pokémon. It should come as no surprise that one of the first Pokémon I wanted upon beating the Elite Four in Pearl was an Electivire. ;D
Then again, I suppose Ampharos is pretty neat too.
Ugh, no. Electivire is extremely easy to wall. It's coverage may be pretty amazing, but it has huge problems with Pokemon that it can't score supereffective hits on. Cresselia is a good example. The lack of a boosting move (Swords Dance) severely limits its sweeping abilities. Blegh, its bad. o3oElectivire is a beast in the current metagame. I have a few myself that are really helpful. Cross Chopping, Motor Drive'd Electivire is amazing.
Zap Cannon was 2nd gen, and it was rather powerful, though I still found Thunderbolt more useful.Yeah, Zap Cannon was amazing back in the 1st gen, thats why I mainly caught Electabuzz, if it the move was in the first gen, I can hardly remember.
Many people make the sily mistake of thinking that their Electivire is faster then a Jolly Gyarados with 252 Speed EVs, and with a DD boost. Or it's the mistake that Electivire can take a DD boosted Earthquake from said Gayrados. (With 31 Attack IVs and 252 Attack EVs.)Ugh, no. Electivire is extremely easy to wall. It's coverage may be pretty amazing, but it has huge problems with Pokemon that it can't score supereffective hits on. Cresselia is a good example. The lack of a boosting move (Swords Dance) severely limits its sweeping abilities. Blegh, its bad. o3o
