Strategy Overview

Lanturn is a great Pokemon due to its dual typing. It's more an Electric Pokemon with an added Water-type than the other way around, since you'll really want to use Lanturn in the same manner you would use any other Electric to be successful. Lanturn is one of the few Electric-types that has no problem switching into Water-types, which is great since that's what Electrics do most. Lanturn also has massive HP which lets it take more hits than one might think. It also annoys really well, and can OHKO those Ground-types that resist Thunder Wave.
