TL DR Electro Ball is almost always inferior to Thunderbolt or Volt Switch unless you specifically want to target really slow Pokémon like Mega Sableye or Mega Slowbro.ĮDIT: I just wanted to say this to clear up a possible contradiction to my argument, the move Gyro Ball functions exactly opposite of Electro Ball, running off of how slow you are compared to your opponent. And granted, while most Bisharp run Adamant over a speed-boosting nature, there are many base 70s that do (Breloom, for example). This is starting to get low in the Speed tiers.
The ratio is 1≤ r <2 for a base 70 Pokémon. This includes Mega Charizard Y, Thundurus, Volcarona, and more. This means that Electrode won't be able to hit any Pokémon with 100 speed or above, which is a good chunk of the metagame, for more that 60 base power, making Electro Ball inferior to Thunderbolt. This is an important benchmark, though, because Hydreigon, at 98 Speed, underspeeds the crowded 100 speed tier. Thunderbolt has a base power of 90, making it the superior option.ĭamage ratio is 1≤ r < 2, making Electro Ball's base power 60 once again.ĭamage ratio is, again, 1≤ r < 2, and the base power is again 60. That is the same as the Electric Hidden Power. (using their max Speed stat, 31 IVs, 252 EVs, positive nature)Īccording to the Pokémon DB's page for Electro Ball, the damage ratio for Electrode versus Talonflame is 1≤ r < 2, making Electro Ball's base power 60. Let's find the base power of Electro Ball versus some of the metagame's speedier 'Mons. There are more competitively viable fast Pokémon than competitively viable slow Pokémon.
Now, while Electrode is one of the fastest Pokémon, there are other fast Pokémon out there. Although, if you have the ability compound eyes, then yeah. You'll pretty much always have 120-150 power to E. Helps you catch wild mons, and sets up hex on any ghost types you might have as well. Here is the formula for Electro Ball's base power: You'll already have the TM by the time you get a joltik, and paralysis beats just lowering speed. Why is Elctro Ball near the bottom of the barrel of Electric attacks? It's because it has a fluctuating damage ratio. While Electrode is one heckuva speedster, and so are other Pokémon like Mega Manectric and Galvantula, they all typically run Thunderbolt, Volt Switch and Thunder, respectively.
