PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Volt Switch + Foul Play and Discharge or Thunderbolt

Volt Switch has been buffed to 3.5 DPT (Damage per Turn) and 4 EPT (Energy Per Turn). Discharge (65 Power/45 Energy) charges quickly thanks to it, and allows Electrode to throw out fair amounts of damage quickly. Thunderbolt (90 Power/55 Energy) is a bit slower, but provides higher damage-per-energy by comparison, and is a better general choice when shields are down.

Foul Play is Electrode's best coverage move, and can have some use depending on the format. 

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 2 / 5

Electrode has found a better niche with Volt Switch, coupled with Foul Play as unique coverage for an Electric-type. It's not the best of them by any means, but it can work in restricted formats such as Silph Cups.

Ultra League: 0 / 5

2099 CP is not enough to compete here.

Master League: 0 / 5

You'd probably be better off using something that the opponent's Pokemon directly counters than a Super Effective damaging Electrode in the Master League.
