Electrode (Japanese: マルマイン Marumine) is an Electric-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Voltorb starting at level 30.
Biology
Electrode is a round Pokémon resembling a reverse-colored Poké Ball with a mouth and eyes. Its top half is white, while its lower half is red. For this reason, many Trainers try to pick it up, mistaking it for an item. The Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards depict Electrode as hollow. Many know it by the nickname "Bomb Ball."
Electrode tends to live in power plants where fresh electricity is being generated, which it consumes. As a result, it often causes blackouts. The more electric energy Electrode consumes, the faster it moves. Electrode explodes in response to even the smallest stimulation, simply to entertain itself, or because it has taken in too much electricity. When full of stored electricity, it has been known to drift with the wind.
In the anime
Major appearances
An Electrode under the ownership of the Navel Island Gym Leader Danny appeared in Navel Maneuvers. It reappeared in a flashback in A Way Off Day Off and in another flashback in Hello, Pummelo!.
Electrode's appeared during The Underground Round Up. A town was over-populated with these Bomb-Ball Pokémon and a man named Poncho had a job of removing them.
Multiple Electrode were used as security measures for an electric company in Current Events.
In What You Seed is What You Get, an Electrode owned by Natasha that was painted like a watermelon was guarding a patch of watermelons.
In Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend, Spoink thought that an Electrode was a pearl. When the group tried to take it off its head, it exploded.
In Pinch Healing!, Jessie unintentionally and indirectly caused an Electrode to fall and explode on a bus that a Poké-sitter was driving.

Electrode's first appearance was during The Flame Pokémon-athon. It was used in a Pokémon Race.
An Electrode appeared in a flashback in Ditto's Mysterious Mansion.
When Team Rocket was trying to infiltrate Professor Oak's lab in Showdown at the Po-ké Corral, they fell into a pit of Electrode.
In Pikachu's Vacation, an Electrode's explosion signaled the start of a swimming race between Ash's Squirtle and a Marill.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
Electrode makes a cameo aboard the S.S. Anne in Danger: High Voltorb as one of Lt. Surge's Pokémon ready to attack Red. Lt. Surge also possesses a cannon capable of firing Electrode at high speeds to attack, supplied by Team Rocket technology. Since the disbandment of Team Rocket in The Legend, Lt. Surge is technically no longer a member, and it is unconfirmed if he still possesses the weaponry.
The Team Rocket grunts use a Voltorb and an Electrode to attack Yellow in The Coming of Slowpoke (Eventually).
Eusine, as seen in Jumping Jumpluff, possesses an Electrode as well, allowing him to travel over large distances by riding it. Eusine's Electrode apparently uses electric charges to suspend itself in mid-air.
The author, Hidenori Kusaka, used an Electrode in Volume 4 (JP version) as self-portrait, continuing to do so ever since. Before that, he always depicted himself as a regular man.
Wattson's Electrode was only seen in the Power Plant located in New Mauville.
In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga
Black owns an Electrode as seen in Gold and Black VS Team Rocket which he took it from Team Rocket.
Eusine also has an Electrode in the manga.
In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga
Lt. Surge's Voltorb battled against Clefairy and evolved into Electrode the same match.
Electrode also appeared in PM047 where Giovanni was coming up with three grand schemes. Giovanni used multiple Electrode in PM099.
In the TCG
- Main article: Electrode (TCG)
Other appearances
Super Smash Bros./Melee/Brawl
In the original Smash Bros. Electrode would appear from the doorway atop the Silph Co. building on the Saffron City stage and use Explosion, damaging any players near it. In the sequels, it would be released randomly from a Poké Ball. When released, Electrode will pause for a few seconds before using Explosion. It can be picked up and thrown, though this is risky as Electrode will hurt everyone near it, including the player who threw the Poké Ball. Electrode functions in Brawl in much the same way as in Melee, however, sometimes, it will fail to explode. Other times, Electrode will merely pretend to fail to explode, then explode suddenly after a few seconds.
Melee trophy information
Electrode, an electric Ball Pokémon, is the evolved form of Voltorb. It has the tendency to explode with even the slightest provocation, which has earned it the nickname "Wrecking Ball." Electrode is the quickest Pokémon found to date, and its distinctive white-over-red coloring is the opposite of Voltorb's.
Brawl trophy information
"A Ball Pokémon. The more electricity stored in its body, the quicker it moves. One danger of storing that much electricity is the slightest stimulus may cause it to explode. Moves it specializes in are Selfdestruct and Explosion. Its love of electricity cause it to gather near power plants."

Trivia
- In Red, Blue, FireRed, and LeafGreen, players can obtain an Electrode at a level as low as 3 by catching a Pikachu in Viridian Forest, evolving it, and trading it to an old man on Cinnabar Island.
- Electrode has a short song dedicated to it, sung by Suzukisan.
- Electrode has the highest Speed base stat of all Electric types.
Origin
It seems to be based upon the concept of a living Poké Ball, and is often mistaken for one. Also, based off its Japanese name and its explosive tendencies, Electrode may have some connection to land mines. The design concept may be inheritance from the time when the franchise was known as Capsule Monsters, as early artworks show Poké Balls without the button in the middle. Like Voltorb, it may be based on ball lightning as well.
Name origin
Electrode may be a portmanteau of electric and explode or node (a computer or program), as well as a pun on electrode, a device through which electrical currents pass, but it is usually in the shape of a rod.
Marumine may be a combination of 丸 maru (circle) and mine, as in landmine.
