Manectric

Manectric has solid Speed and Special Attack to go along with great Electric + Fire coverage. Fire-type coverage is particularly good for an Electric-type in RU, as it prevents the likes of Registeel and Venusaur from reliably checking Manectric. As with other Electric-types, Manectric has STAB Volt Switch to easily build or maintain momentum for its team in order to keep up offensive pressure. Lightning Rod allows Manectric to switch into any Electric-type move in order to boost its Special Attack to become even more threatening than normal. It's also a check to Fletchinder that can fit on offensive teams in an attempt to keep the bird from sweeping through a team. However, Manectric is frail, with even lower bulk than Jolteon, and falls just behind key threats in Virizion and Sneasel, thus limiting its effectiveness against very fast teams it would otherwise be able to pressure. Manectric also faces a fair bit of competition as an Electric-type from Jolteon, Rotom-C, and Eelektross, although Manectric boasts the good Speed of the former two and the Fire-type coverage of the latter.
