Talk:Electric (type)

Characteristics section

Is it just me or is it not very well- worded/structured? I'd be happy to make some changes to it, I just wanted to double check with other community members first. Volsak 01:25, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

The deed is done. I am open to any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. in other words, if I did a lousy job please tell me :P Volsak 02:08, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

The only thing you did wrong was not capitalize "Electric-type". I'll do that. ^Birthday! Alpha CuboneKing 02:10, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Trivia

I think it's worth something that every generation has introduced an electric type pokemon based on rodents. Pikachu and Raichu, Pichu, Plusle and Minun, Pachirisu Luord 00:11, 28 May 2010 (UTC)Luord

Can any one find out when the colour of electric attacks changed from yellow to blue? I think it was in Gen III however i also know that some older pokemon keep the yellow attack colour while im almost sure that the new ones have blue. Tonberry 15:35, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

I realized a few things the other day. I'll mention them here for interest:

• Heat Rotom has the only type combination simultaneously resistant to Fire, Ice, and Electric attacks.
• Except for Electric itself, every elemental type that resists Electric atacks (i.e. Grass, Ground, and Dragon) is vulnerable to Ice.

Wild Bolt

What the heck is Wild Bolt? Not a move I've ever heard of, and it's stats are all question-marked. Is this from some side-game? Satosuke 01:59, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

New move for Shimama, it's from Black and White so not much information has been released yet.--PhantomJunkie 02:01, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

We probably shouldn't be adding new moves from Gen V though if we don't have any new information on them yet. Like how anime pages are protected from edits until the episode in question is released. But I'm no moderator or admin, so I'll avoid an edit war over this. Satosuke 02:03, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

I agree. However, we didn't have it there until today, even though it was released two months ago. However, a user keeps adding Generation V info to the pages. Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 02:24, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Weakness to electric moves

If I didn't make any mistake with figures, there should be more species weak to electric type moves, with 158, as compared to the ones weak to ground types moves, which should be 152 ( taking levitate into account ). This should be enough to consider the electric type one of the best offensively along with the classic ice, ground, fire, rock and fighting.
