|jdex=帯電性でしかも、好戦的な性格のため、なるべく近くに寄らないほうが無難である。

|transdex=Its body is always charged, and because of its aggressive personality, it is not safe to be too close to it.

This card was included in the English {{TCG|Jungle}} expansion as both a Holofoil and Non Holofoil card, first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Pokémon Jungle}} expansion as only a Holofoil card. A Non Holofoil print of this card was later reprinted in the English {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} expansion.

 

Early prints of the Unlimited Holofoil version of this card were printed without the Jungle set symbol. This error was corrected later in the print run. All {{TCG|1st Edition}} prints of the Non Holofoil print erroneously have the artwork of {{TCG ID|Base Set|Electrode|21}} from {{TCG|Base Set}}.

==Trivia==

With Pikachu, this was the first Pokémon to appear in more than one extension (both being featured in the Base Set as well).

===Origin===

{{m|Tackle}} is a [[move]] in the [[Pokémon games]] that {{p|Electrode}} can learn. This card's English [[Pokédex]] entry comes from {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, though it is slightly reworded.
