Flavor Text

Generation 5
Black, White

A weak electric current flows between its horns. Sticking a hand there shocks the unwary.

Black 2, White 2

Spinning its arms around to generate electricity makes the area between its horns shine light blue.

Generation 6
X

It generates electricity by whirling its arms. However, it can’t store the energy it makes.

Y

Spinning its arms around to generate electricity makes the area between its horns shine light blue.

Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire

Elekid stores electricity in its body. If it touches metal and accidentally discharges all its built-up electricity, this Pokémon begins swinging its arms in circles to recharge itself.

Generation 7
Sun

When it’s in a house, electrical outlets serve as its baby bottles. It sucks down electricity.

Moon

This Pokémon is constantly fighting with Togedemaru that try to steal its electricity. It’s a pretty even match.

Ultra Sun

When it hears the crash of thunder, Elekid’s mood improves. It can be useful to record that sound and play it when Elekid’s feeling down.

Ultra Moon

When its horns shine a bluish white, that’s the sign it’s fully charged. You’ll get a shocking jolt if you touch it!
