PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Spark is superior to Volt Switch for the weave DPS and energy gain. Volt Switch’s huge cast time make it difficult to dodge.

  • Tackle*, Shadow Electrode’s legacy charge move, lacks STAB or any type advantage.

  • Thunderbolt is slightly superior to Discharge for damage output, but both are reasonable.

  • Hyper Beam and Foul Play have no uses on Electrode. Use your TMs here.

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Volt Switch is clearly superior on defense, doing more than double the damage that Spark and Tackle* do.

  • Thunderbolt is Shadow Electrode’s best move, splitting the difference between charge time and damage.

  • Discharge is also great, since Shadow Electrode is frail. It sometimes does more damage than Thunderbolt.

  • Foul Play doesn't really provide meaningful coverage for Shadow Electrode, and also lacks STAB. 

  • Hyper Beam is too slow and easy to dodge.

PVE Overview

The Shadow Boost helps Electrode a fair bit, but that high speed in the main series is still very bad in Go. It can put in some work, but it's not great.
