Voltorb

Voltorb is a unique Pokemon, though it is really only useful for its high Speed. It has quite a shallow movepool, but has enough moves to work well in several roles, but the only role in which it truly shines is as a Taunt user. Whenever you see Voltorb, which is not exceedingly often, it will likely run Taunt. Voltorb is quite frail. However, it shouldn't need to take many hits because it can revenge kill almost the entire metagame, thanks to its workable Special Attack which lets it run offensive sets as well as support sets, though these are less viable because Elekid outclasses Voltorb in every aspect but Speed. It can be devastating with a Life Orb. Voltorb's three abilities are all very interesting and varied. All in all, Voltorb can be a potent status user or an attacker that pulls its weight, but prospective users should be wary of its flaws.
