Eelektrik Guide

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, Eelektrik isn't fully evolved, so it's not built for competitive play. You'll want to evolve it into Eelektross to unlock its full potential. At 405 BST, it's a stepping stone rather than a team anchor.

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, watch for Garchomp (Ground) when using Eelektrik. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Only 1 weakness means fewer dedicated counters to worry about. At base 40 Speed, Eelektrik won't outrun any of these threats so switching to a resist is usually the safer play.

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, Tynamo evolves into Eelektrik at level 39. Eelektrik evolves into Eelektross using a Thunder Stone. Eelektrik is a middle-stage evolution in the Tynamo line.

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, Run Levitate on Eelektrik. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche.

  • In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, Eelektrik fills the trick room role. It's a physical attacker with base 85 Attack. Base 40 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.

Game Availability

Introduced in Black & White, Eelektrik has appeared in 9 games across 6 generations. Later debuts mean fewer total appearances, but it's been a consistent presence since its introduction.
