Eelektrik (Japanese: シビビール Shibibeel) is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves from Tynamo starting at level 39 and evolves into Eelektross when exposed to a Thunder Stone.

Contents

Biology

Eelektrik is a blue-black, eel-like Pokémon with a beige underbelly. Its round, toothy, leech-like mouth has red lips, and its eyes have small pupils with yellow circle patterning around them, as well as spots. Beige fins extend from above and below its head, and its body is decorated with three yellow spots on the side, which are actually its electricity-generating organs. It has a red tail fin that resembles a fan.

Eelektrik is a vigorous carnivore and has a good appetite. Upon spotting prey, it immediately attacks and paralyzes it, then coils around it and shocks it with electricity from its circular electricity-generating organs before eating it. It dwells in caves and marine environments.

Trivia

• Eelektrik and its evolutionary relatives are the only Pokémon with no weaknesses.
• Eelektrik is the only member of its evolution line that learns moves by leveling up. It is the only Pokémon in the second stage of a three-stage evolutionary line to have this distinction.
• Eelektrik is the only Pokémon to evolve with a Thunder Stone that was not introduced in Generation I.

Origin

Eelektrik and its evolutionary relatives may be based on electric eels, lampreys and possibly leeches. The fact that it is Electric-type may be an allusion to bioelectrogenesis.

Name origin

Eelektrik is a combination of eel and a corruption of electric.

Shibibeel may be a combination of 痺れ shibire (numbness) or しびれうなぎ shibireunagi (electric eel), ビリビリ biribiri (onomatopoeia for an electric shock), and eel.
