Strategy Overview

Despite Emolga's unique attributes in an Electric immunity and Encore, its stats outside of Speed are quite lacking, and it is outclassed by mainly Oricorio-E. Emolga also does not hit especially hard, and its quirks do not stand up to Oricorio-E's access to Calm Mind, higher Special Attack, much better bulk, and ability to check threats like Gurdurr and Torterra much more convincingly.
