Physical Sweeper Electabuzz (Retro)
Electabuzz is an astounding Physical Sweeper in single battles. It's purpose is to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. Gen1 meta was a totally different monster. In the old days before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Double-Edge is a physical 100-base power Normal-type move (has 1/4 recoil). ♦ Body Slam is a physical 85-base power Normal-type move (30% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Seismic Toss is a physical 1-base power Fighting-type move (damage = Electabuzz's level. Can hit ghost types). ♦ Counter is a physical 0-base power Fighting-type move (if hit by physical attack, returns double damage). ♦ Thunder Wave is a status move (paralyzes the target). ♦ Light Screen is a status move (while active, Electabuzz's special is 2x when damaged).
