Manectric

Manectric is an underdog among Electric-types due to its rather shallow special movepool and average Special Attack. However, its base 105 Speed enables it to outspeed a majority of the threats in VGC. Lightning Rod gives it an immunity to Electric-type moves and a Special Attack boost when hit by them, allowing Manectric to defend its teammates from threats such as Zapdos, Rotom-A, and Thundurus, by drawing away their STAB moves. What sets Manectric apart from most Electric-types is its access to Flamethrower and Overheat, which allows it to punish most Steel- and Grass-types. While 70 / 60 / 60 defenses seem unappealing, it's a very underrated Pokemon and should not be overlooked as a threat.
