Jolteon is a dog-like Pokémon with a very short tail, surrounded by a fringe of spikes on its rear, and yellow fur that can have the sharpness of needles ({{p|Glaceon}} shares this same trait, but it is not as obvious). Jolteon also has a white, spiky collar, and pink paw pads.

Jolteon can use the same attacks that Eevee could use, with the addition of the ability to wield {{t|electric}}al attacks, as well as {{m|Double Kick}} and {{m|Pin Missile}}. For gathering power for electric attacks, it accumulates negative ions in the atmosphere, charges power when its mood changes, or amplifies the weak electric charge of its cells with the static electricity of its electrically-charged needle fur. As a fully evolved Pokémon, Jolteon can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

Jolteon usually are found near power plants. Due to the need of a {{evostone|Thunderstone}} to evolve from {{p|Eevee}}, not many are found. However, because it's an {{p|Eevee}} evolution, it can adapt almost anywhere.

Its physical anatomy seems to be primarily based on a {{wp|Herding dog}} or possibly a {{wp|fennec fox}} , with several traits of {{wp|coyote}}s. It is also feline-like; its extremely high speed resembles that of a {{wp|cheetah}}'s. The ability to shoot its spiky fur may be based on {{wp|porcupine}}s. It may also be inspired by the {{wp|raiju}}, a beast from Japanese mythology whose body is made of thunder, and may take the form of a cat.
