Elekid
The Electric Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 239
Entry: This baby, plug-like pokémon generates electricity by spinning its arms around quickly. The faster it spins its arms, the more electricity it generates, and the more electricity it generates, the more likely the area between its prong-shaped horns begins to glow blue. At that point, even the air around elekid may be super-charged with electricity, and given the fact that elekid struggles to store the electricity it generates, approaching this pokémon at this point may be a bad idea. However, the air between its prongs always carries some form of charge capable of shocking any unwary human who sticks their hand between them. Or, at least, that’s according to the pokédex. According to the author, if you’re a human who approaches a pokémon incapable of storing electricity to stick its hands directly between its horns, you have wandered far out of “unwary” territory and straight into “asking for it” territory.
Electabuzz
The Electric Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 125
Entry: The evolved form of elekid, by battle experience. This oni-like pokémon constantly consumes and discharges vast amounts of electricity. In fact, the quantity of energy that passes into and out of electabuzz’s body causes its skin to glow in darkness and the hair of anyone within five feet of it to stand on end. While research is still ongoing into harnessing this electricity for human use, among electabuzz colonies, individual electabuzz use their abilities for communication: when two electabuzz touch, they can pass currents between them in order to convey emotion. Needless to say, electabuzz trainers should be aware that not all electabuzz understand that humans are not odd-looking electabuzz.
Electivire
The Thunderbolt Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 466
Entry: The evolved form of electabuzz, via trading if the subject has had an electirizer applied to it. This beast-like pokémon is capable of unleashing over 20000 volts of electricity from the tips of its tails. Thus, it often pushes these tails into an opponent to deliver a devastating blow … or into their trainers because they’ve eaten nothing but kibble for three months straight.
