Strategy Overview
Despite being able to viably run a Choice Scarf set, Electrike is wholly outclassed in Little Cup due to its mediocre stats and average movepool by Magnemite, Chinchou, and Elekid, with the former two having secondary STAB options. While Electrike possesses Switcheroo, a useful utility option that can cripple bulky Pokemon such as Foongus, it isn't enough to warrant using Electrike on any competitive team.
