79. Electro Ball
Nominated by: Wicklebee
Introduced: Gen V
Pokemon I associate this move with: Emolga
Electro Ball has a lot of potential for a move, but the major problem is that, more often than not, Thunderbolt is more useful. I mean, sure, those rare situations where you're using an Electrode against a Bronzong are going to be great. But even then Electrode isn't that great at attacking; as a matter of fact, most of the Pokemon who learn this move are lacking in one of the two categories needed for it to be great (those being Special Attack and Speed). It's too bad something like Jolteon can't learn this move. As it stands, the only Pokemon that can use it to somewhat full potential is Galvantula. All that put together gives it a relatively low placement. In the world of Theorymon, it'd be higher.
