Jolteon (Japanese: サンダース Thunders) is an Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves from Eevee via Thunderstone.

Biology

Physiology

Jolteon is the result of exposing an Eevee to the radiation of a Thunderstone. Jolteon is a dog-like Pokémon with a very short tail, and yellow fur that has the sharpness of needles (Glaceon shares this same trait, but it's not as obvious). Jolteon also has a white, spiky collar.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Jolteon can use the same attacks that Eevee could use, with the addition of the ability to use electrical attacks, as well as Double Kick and Pin Missile. As a fully evolved Pokémon, Jolteon can learn Hyper Beam and Giga Impact.

Behavior

Jolteon can easily have changes of mood. Every time that occurs, it charges power. If startled or angered, it can shoot out bristles that are sharp enough to pierce opponents.

Habitat

Jolteon usually are found near power plants. Due to the need of a Thunderstone to evolve from Eevee, not many are found.

Major Appearances

Jolteon first appeared in The Battling Eevee Brothers, under the ownership of Sparky.

In Get Along, Little Pokémon, Ethan used a Jolteon as a "sheep dog" of sorts. Whenever any of Ethan's Magnemite tried to escape, Jolteon would use Thunder Wave to lure them back.

Jolteon was also seen under the ownership of one of the Kimono Sisters in Trouble's Brewing and Espeon Not Included.

Minor Appearances

Ash battled against a Jolteon in the Pokémon League Entrance Exam in The Ultimate Test.

Jolteon is one of the Electric-type Pokémon that was seen in the lake with crystal in As Clear As Crystal.

Jolteon made a small cameo in the beginning of Giratina and the Sky Warrior together with an Eevee and the other six Eeveelutions.
