Stats & Training
Electrike's stats barely vary. None sit in respectable range with no real gaps. It's a blank slate for EV investment. Worth 1 Speed EV, slow 1.25M XP grind to max.
Friction between the air and its fur produces static electricity. When Electrike runs, it makes a crackling sound.
Static electricity builds up all over its body as strands of its long fur rub together. This Pokémon boasts incredible speed.
