The Top Electric Pokémon In Pokémon Go: Your Ultimate Guide

There’s an electric ‘mon for every taste, from Mega Ampharos’ luscious locks to Raikou’s chubby cheeks. But what are the best electric Pokémon in Pokémon Go? Well, I could answer that question in many ways. My list below includes ten of the most powerful, cute, and attainable pocket monsters in Go, so that you can add the best lightning lads to your Battle League team and hopefully attain victory.

If Pokémon and its expansive Pokédex isn’t for you, maybe our lists of the best games like Pokemon Go, best Digimon games, and best Yoshi games on Switch and mobile will help you find a new experience full of cute creatures. Or, if you’re after something completely different, take a look at our lists of the best Final Fantasy games and the best Resident Evil games.

These are the best electric Pokémon in Pokémon Go:

Raichu

Fast move: Volt Switch
Charged move: Wild Charge

If you read the intro to this list, Raichu won’t surprise you. This adorable electric mouse is far superior to its predecessor and even has an almost equally precious Alolan form. It may not be the strongest Pokémon out there, but it definitely is the cutest, and I think that’s all that matters really. If you’re facing one in battle, take a look at our guide to electric Pokémon weakness.

Mega Ampharos

Fast move: Volt Switch
Charged move: Zap Cannon

Once again, a truly gorgeous electric Pokémon. Mega Ampharos is one of the most powerful choices if you want to take on the Go Battle League and look stylish while doing so. Despite not being a gen 6 Pokémon, Ampharos still got the Mega Evolution treatment and rocks it. Maybe we’ll see it appear closer to the Pokémon Legends: Z-A release date…

Mega Manectric

Fast move: Thunder Fang
Charged move: Wild Charge

If you haven’t picked up any Ampharos Mega Energy but have a backpack full of Manectric Mega Energy, then this is the best electric Pokémon to take into battle. In my opinion, it’s not as cute as Ampharos, but who am I to judge? Plus, he’s an adorable dog Pokémon!

Raikou

Fast move: Thunder Shock
Charged move: Wild Charge

The first legendary to make it onto our list! Raikou is a powerhouse, especially the shadow form, which is currently topping the Pokémon Go Hub electric leaderboard. Unfortunately, you won’t stumble across one of these in the wild and must defeat it in a Pokémon Go raid before you can take it into battle.

Electivire

Fast move: Thunder Shock
Charged move: Wild Charge

This is the most attainable of the strong electric Pokémon in Pokémon Go. The only thing stopping you from using this absolute unit is the need for 100 Electabuzz candies. That and the fact that it’s kind of ugly, if that matters to you.

Magnezone

Fast move: Spark
Charged move: Wild Charge

Can’t get your hands on 100 Electabuzz candy but have a spare 100 Magnemite candy and a magnetic lure module? Well, Magnezone is almost as good as Electivire, and you’re far more likely to stumble across a Magnemite in the wild than an Electabuzz.

Jolteon

Fast move: Volt Switch
Charged move: Discharge

One of the main reasons Jolteon is on this list is because it’s so darn cute! I think all lists need at least one Eeveelution. Not only is Jolteon a precious, gorgeous creature, but it’s also relatively powerful and fast, so should slot into your team nicely.
