Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are the highly anticipated remakes of the Pokemon games set in the Sinnoh region. While some players revisit the original Generation 4 games frequently, others may not have played since the original releases 15 years ago, so a recap of what Pokemon are available in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl wouldn't hurt!
While Pokemon Diamond and Pearl aren't known for their abundance of choices when it comes to Electric-type Pokemon, every great Pokemon team needs one, and since there are no Electric-type starters in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, it's important that players know their options. There are some great choices for Electric-type Pokemon that are easy to overlook.
10 Pachirisu
Pachirisu really shines when it comes to its Speed stat. At 95, Pachirisu can outpace many opponents during battle. Pachirisu can fall short in its Attack and HP, though so players may not take it all the way to the Elite Four.
Pachirisu can most easily be caught by walking in tall grass at Feugo Ironworks or Route 205, where it has a good chance to spawn.
Pachirisu's Stats:
HP: 60
Attack: 45
Special Attack: 45
Defense: 70
Special Defense: 90
Speed: 95
Total: 405
9 Plusle / Minun
Plusle and Minun are technically two separate Pokemon, and while players likely won't choose both Pokemon to fill the Electric-type spot on their team, they both have their benefits. Plusle is a more attack-focused Pokemon, while Minun is a more defensive Pokemon. Both Pokemon have an impressive Speed stat of 95, which can be useful in battle, and their sole Electric-typing means that they have few weaknesses.
Both Plusle and Minun can be caught in Trophy Garden while walking in tall grass.
Plusle's Stats:HP: 60 Attack: 50 Special Attack: 85 Defense: 40 Special Defense: 75 Speed: 95 Total: 405 |
Minun's Stats:HP: 60 Attack: 40 Special Attack: 75 Defense: 50 Special Defense: 85 Speed: 95 Total: 405 |
8 Lanturn
While Lanturn isn't hailed as the best Electric-type Pokemon, it has its merits. Lanturn's HP stat of 125 is impressive, especially compared to its other lower stats like its 58 Defense and Attack stats. Lanturn's opposing Water and Electric Dual-typing gives it great weakness and resistance.
Chinchou, Lanturn's base evolution, and Lanturn itself can be caught using a fishing rod on Route 220.
Lanturn's Stats:
HP: 125
Attack: 58
Special Attack: 76
Defense: 58
Special Defense: 76
Speed: 67
Total: 460
7 Raichu
The iconic Pikachu evolution, Raichu, boasts a great Speed stat of 110 and, as most Electric-type Pokemon, can outpace most opponents in battle. Raichu falls short of being an amazing Pokemon when it comes to its low HP and Defense stats though its few weaknesses help with this issue.
Raichu evolves from Pichu and subsequently Pikachu, which can both be caught in Trophy Garden by walking in tall grass. Players will need a Thunder Stone to evolve Pikachu into Raichu, which can be found in Sunyshore City.
Raichu's Stats:
HP: 60
Attack: 90
Special Attack: 90
Defense: 55
Special Defense: 80
Speed: 110
Total: 485
6 Electrode
While Electrode's HP and Attack stats are nothing to write home about, its enormous Speed stat is more than enough to make up for it. With iconic moves like Explosion and Self-Destruct, which results in Electrode fainting, most players choose to use Electrode only as a last resort, though it has a decent enough move pool to be used as a Pokemon in most players' main team.
Voltorb, Electrodes lower evolution, can be caught in tall grass on Route 218 and also in the Grand Underground. Voltorb will evolve into Electrode at level 30, which shouldn't pose any issues to players with Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl's constant Exp. Share.
Electrode's Stats:
HP: 60
Attack: 50
Special Attack: 80
Defense: 70
Special Defense: 80
Speed: 150
Total: 490
5 Ampharos
Ampharos is a great Pokemon for any team. It has a surprisingly low Speed stat for an Electric-type Pokemon, coming in at just 55, but its other stats are decent enough to compensate. Ampharos' wide variety of moves make it a great choice for a team needing versatility, as it can learn some Electric, Fighting, Fire, and even Dragon-type moves.
Ampharos evolves from Mareep and Flaaffy at levels 15 and 30, respectively. An already evolved Flaaffy can be found in tall grass on Route 222 using Poke Radar.
Ampharos' Stats:
HP: 90
Attack: 75
Special Attack: 115
Defense: 85
Special Defense: 90
Speed: 55
Total: 510
4 Luxray
Luxray is a great fit for any Pokemon team and compliments all of Generation 4's starter Pokemon well. Luxray's Speed stat is considerably lower than other Electric-type Pokemon available, but its high Attack stat of 120 and Special Attack stat of 95 make it a huge threat to opponents in battle. Shinx, Luxray's base evolution, can also be caught early in a playthrough making it useful for the long-term game.
Shinx is widely available to be caught, found in tall grass in Route 202, Route 203, Route 204, and Fuego Ironworks. Shinx can also be caught in the Grand Underground.
Luxray's Stats:
HP: 80
Attack: 120
Special Attack: 95
Defense: 79
Special Defense: 79
Speed: 70
Total: 523
3 Magnezone
Having huge Defense and Special Attack stats, Magnezone is a great choice for a heavy-hitting Pokemon that players can take all the way to the Elite Four. Its Special Attack stat of 130 is higher than some legendary Pokemon's, and Magnezone has a bolstered move pool to back it up. Its Dual Steel and Electric-typing also give it a bundle of resistances and only one real threat in its 4X damage weakness to Ground-type moves.
Magnemite, Magnezone's unevolved form, can be found most easily in tall grass at Fuego Ironworks, but can also be found in the Grand Underground. Players will need a Thunder Stone to fully evolve this Pokemon into Magnezone, which can be found in Sunyshore City.
Magnezone's Stats:
HP: 70
Attack: 70
Special Attack: 130
Defense: 115
Special Defense: 90
Speed: 60
Total: 535
2 Jolteon
Jolteon is an iconic Pokemon from Generation 1 and has remained one of the more reliable Electric-type Pokemon for players throughout the Pokemon series. Its strong Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed stat make it a great choice for players, and its sole Electric-typing gives it few weaknesses where other Dual Electric-type Pokemon fall behind.
Jolteon's pre-evolution, Eevee, can be caught in tall grass in Trophy Garden, and after using a Thunder Stone can be turned into the Electric Pokemon.
Jolteon's Stats:
HP: 65
Attack: 65
Special Attack: 110
Defense: 60
Special Defense: 95
Speed: 130
Total: 525
1 Electivire (Pokemon Brilliant Diamond Exclusive)
Electivire is an all-around great choice for players looking for a strong attack Pokemon. Electivire's 123 Attack stat and 95 Special Attack stat make it a safe choice for an Electric-type option. Electivire is an exclusive Pokemon found in the wild only in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond.
Electivire's base evolution, Elekid, can be found in the Grand Underground in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond only and will need to be evolved into Electabuzz before being traded holding an Electirizer to evolve into Electivire.
Electivire's Stats:
HP: 75
Attack: 123
Special Attack: 95
Defense: 67
Special Defense: 85
Speed: 95
Total: 540
