Defensively, the Electric-type is fairly well off. Its resistances aren't especially notable aside from Flying, but it has only one weakness, to Ground. Having only one weakness means Electric-type Pokémon can take a few hits while dishing out heavy damage or using stat-boosting moves. However, {{m|Earthquake}} is a very popular and powerful Ground move for Pokémon that focus on physical moves.

What's useful in battles is that many Electric types can use Magnet Rise, thus giving them temporary immunity to ground types.


Offensively, the Electric-type is also pretty well off. Flying and Water are fairly common types, while all its resistances are rare. Ground-type Pokémon can be covered by a {{m|Hidden Power}} of the right type.
