Eelektross PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Fully evolved and with a legacy move under its... do eels wear belts, or are they all belt? In either case, Eelektross is a competent Electric attacker, utilizing its Community Day move Volt Switch as a fast attack and Thunderbolt for its charged attack. It currently ranks just inside the top 50 Electric attackers.

🛡️ Gyms

With as much bulk as it's gained from evolution, Eelektross is still far from being the first choice for defending gyms. That said, its only weakness to Ground could pair nicely with a bunch of Flying-type defenders, making gyms more of a time-consuming challenge to overthrow.

Eelektross PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

Eelektross boasts a surprisingly diverse moveset, but the high energy output from Volt Switch can't be overlooked. Paired with the charged moves Thunderbolt for a strong Electric attack and Dragon Claw for spammy coverage, this eel now picks up wins from the Azumarills it would have previously lost against.

🟡 Ultra League

Things get better for Eelektross in Ultra League, but not enough to make it commonplace in high-performing teams. Still, with the same moveset as Great League, you could see it pick up wins against Tentacruel, Talonflame, and Walrein.

🟣 Master League

While potentially seeing some use, Eelektross will see defeat far more often than it will see victory. It's now being outclassed by Legendaries, so your best bet would be to switch tactics to the likes of Tapu Koko, Zapdos, or Raikou.
