Electrode tends to live in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|power plants}} where fresh electricity is being generated, which it consumes. As a result, it often causes blackouts. The more electric energy Electrode consumes, the faster it moves. Electrode explodes in response to even the smallest stimulation, simply to entertain itself, or because it has taken in too much electricity. But unlike Voltorb, Electrode can control its explosive ability at will. When full of stored electricity, it has been known to drift with the wind. Electrode is known as the ''Bomb Ball'' due to being high feared because of its explosive nature.

In [[Hisui]], Electrode also resembles the upside-down Poké Balls of the time period, with a wooden pattern on its top half. Its eyes are large black holes inside a debossed pattern, resembling an angry glare. Its lower half is dark red and has a hole in the bottom. Its mouth is in a constant frown, giving the impression that it is drawn on. Interestingly, its surface texture is similar to that of an [[Apricorn]].

A special Hisuian Electrode is worshipped by the Hisui people due to it being descended from one of the ten ancient Pokémon who received a blessing from {{p|Arceus}} despite the fact that Poké Balls had not yet been invented. In particular, it is one of the [[Noble Pokémon]] who resides in [[Coronet Highlands]], watched over by the [[Warden]] [[Melli]].
