Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Electrode is a electric-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Speed — at 490 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with top speed tier (base 150) and a special attacking profile. Its Soundproof 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 Electrode. Build around what Electrode 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.
