Pokédex Flavour (description)
- Red/Blue
- It stores electric energy under very high pressure. It often explodes with little or no provocation.
- Yellow
- Stores electrical energy inside its body. Even the slightest shock could trigger a huge explosion.
- Gold
- It is dangerous. If it has too much electricity and has nothing to do, it amuses itself by exploding.
- Silver
- It stores an overflowing amount of electric energy inside its body. Even a small shock makes it explode.
- Crystal
- The more energy it charges up, the faster it gets. But this also makes it more likely to explode.
- Ruby
- ELECTRODE eats electricity in the atmosphere. On days when lightning strikes, you can see this POKéMON exploding all over the place from eating too much electricity.
- Sapphire
- One of ELECTRODE's characteristics is its attraction to electricity. It is a problematical POKéMON that congregates mostly at electrical power plants to feed on electricity that has just been generated.
- Emerald
- They appear in great numbers at electric power plants. Because they feed on electricity, they cause massive and chaotic blackouts in nearby cities.
- Fire Red
- It explodes in response to even minor stimuli. It is feared, with the nickname of "The Bomb Ball."
- Leaf Green
- It stores electric energy under very high pressure. It often explodes with little or no provocation.
