{{iw|bulbapedia|Electrode|Pokémon}} is an Electric-type [[List of Pokémon|Pokémon]] introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}. It evolves from {{iw|bulbapedia|Voltorb|Pokémon}} starting at level 30, and, like it, it sometimes disguises itself as a Poké Ball and attacks unwary trainers which try to pick it up. | |||
{{iw|bulbapedia|Explosion|move}} is a Normal-type move introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}. With 250 base power it is in normal conditions the most powerful attack in the series, but has the severe drawback of making its user faint. Electrode can learn it in every game. | |||

Electrode made its debut to the ''Smash'' series in ''Super Smash Bros.'', appearing as one of five Pokémon hazards on the stage [[Saffron City]]. The Electrode in Saffron City will pop out from the door on the side of the building when a character approaches. Electrode then will use Explosion as its attack after a few seconds of its appearance. Any character that is caught in the blast radius of Electrode will take [[damage]] and massive [[knockback]]. | Electrode made its debut to the ''Smash'' series in ''Super Smash Bros.'', appearing as one of five Pokémon hazards on the stage [[Saffron City]].

Electrode returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', this time as a [[Poké Ball]] summon, using Explosion once again. When Electrode comes out of the Poké Ball, it remains still, but will start to get darker over a period of a few seconds: this serves as warning that Electrode is about to explode. When Electrode explodes, everyone in the blast radius (including the character who summoned Electrode) will take heavy damage that is almost equal to a [[Bob-omb]], and can [[KO]] characters even at low percentages. When Electrode is about to explode and starts to static it can be picked up and thrown. The character holding Electrode must be fast when disposing it, as their throwing animation has more startup lag, making characters with larger throw delays (such as Marth and Bowser) have a smaller window of safety. Electrode also appears in the [[event match]] [[Event 3: Bomb-fest|Bomb-fest]] as the only Poké Ball Pokémon. | Electrode returns in ''Super Smash Bros.
