Electivire (Japanese: エレキブル Elekibull) is an Template:Type2 Pokémon.
It evolves from Electabuzz by trade with Electrizer. It is the final form of Elekid.
Biology
Physiology
Electivire is a humanoid creature covered in yellow fur with black stripes, and five black fingers on each of its hands. It lacks a neck, similarly to its baby form, Elekid, and has red eyes, a black spot on its forehead and the same antennae as Electabuzz. There is a pattern on Electivire's back that resembles an electric outlet, and it has two black tails that each have a red tip. Electivire has black feet with three toes in the front.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Electivire can use attacks that its pre-evolutions can use, except that Electivire's attacks will be more powerful. However, Electivire is also capable of knowing Flamethrower, Earthquake and Rock Slide. Electrical attacks are unable to do any damage to Electivire, but they will instead stimulate its muscles so it can move faster.
Behavior

- Electivire has the highest base Attack stat out of all Template:Type2 Pokémon.
- Electivire is the currently the only Template:Type2 Pokémon that can learn Earthquake.
- Electivire is one of a few Pokémon whose species name is the same as the name of a move. In Electivire's case, the move is Thunderbolt.
- Electivire is the only Electric-type Pokémon to learn Giga Impact by level up.
- Platinum allows Electivire to learn Magnet rise, negating Ground attacks. This makes Electivire the third Pokémon that can negate all of it's weaknesses, along with Sableye and Spiritomb.
*In addition, Electivire is the only Pokémon out of the three who isn't a Ghost, Dark or dual type. Electivire is also the only one who requires a move to cancel it's weakness, Spiritomb and Sableye's both being a result of their typing.
Origin
Electivire seems to be based on a yeti. It is also very likely to be based on a gorilla. However, its Motor Drive ability which boosts speed after being struck by an electric attack by stimulating its muscles to help move faster is similar to Mary Shelly's Frankenstein which was created by electricity.
Name origin
Elekibull is believed to be combination of エレキテル erekiteru, electricity, and ブル buru, bull, or ケーブル kēburu, cable. Electivire is based off of the words electricity and wire, as in the two cord-like tails it has. Its name could have also been based off of virus, referring to computer viruses, or vampire, because its ability "feeds" off of electric attacks. Its German name, Elevoltek, comes from Elektro-, volt Technik. Its French name, Elekable, comes from électrique and câble.
