Electivire
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Electivire is a electric-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Attack — at 540 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 95) and a physical attacking profile. Its Motor Drive ability matters more than the raw numbers when it hits the field: check what it does before deciding between a sweeper, pivot, or support role for Electivire. Build around what Electivire actually threatens, not its in-game lore — start from its weaknesses and strongest STAB moves, then decide whether its Speed, bulk, or coverage justifies a team slot.
