Electivire is a powerful two-tailed electric Pokémon that was introduced in the fourth generation games. It was introduced as the new evolved form for the first generation Pokémon Electabuzz, which retroactively makes it the third and final form in Elekid's evolutionary line.

Information

Electivire evolves from an Electabuzz that has been traded while holding an Electrizer. It has two tails which can unleash 20,000 volts of electricity. Regardless of the attacks used against it, Electivire will usually opt to close in on the enemy, shove their tails onto the foe and then attack with their high voltage electricity. Blue sparks will also crackle between an Electivire's horns as it builds up electricity.

Appearances

Mainstream Games

Electivire has not been found in the wild and can only be obtained by evolving an Electabuzz.
