Manectric is one of my favourite Pokémon of all time. Not only are they awesome for battle, they also just look the coolest, have a great cry, and are doggo-shaped.
Currently I've got one in Sword and his name is Sideswipe.

Compliment
I am not very good at receiving compliments. I love them, but I can end up becoming flustered... xD My art is not to be reuploaded or used in AI art in any way.

I absolutely love Yamper and Pincurchin with all my heart, but their shiny versions are just so- plain looking? idk their colours barely change and it makes me sad. That's why I've made my own fanmade ones! This is how I expected their shiny versions to look, what do you think? (๑˃ᴗ˂)
Xurkitree?
Xurkitreeeee!!!!
Xurkitree’s our very first Ultra Beast, and if you’re not familiar with them already, then hot DANG is this design probably a shock. It looks absolutely NOTHING like any pokemon we’ve reviewed thus far, and is unlike any other pokemon there is besides y’know, other Ultra Beasts. Ultra Beasts are basically pokemon originating from a multitude of other dimensions, having been inadvertently transported to Alola through something called Ultra Wormholes. Ultra Beasts have a degree of aesthetic freedom unmatched by any other pokemon category, with absolutely wild results like this. A pure Electric-type, this thing’s basically if you tried anthropomorphicising electrical cables!
Designated UB-03 Lightning, Xurkitree has some INCREDIBLE vibes. It’s utterly unlike any living being and almost reminiscent of some of the weirder Angels from Neon Genesis Evangelion, albeit scaled down a fair bit. It feeds on electricity, and is known to sometimes stand immobile with its limbs in the ground, akin to a tree (hence the name). As shown in this promotional Pokemon Center image, this may actually be a feeding behaviour – there’s so much lightning on their homeworld that standing still may be the most effective way to get struck by lightning and thereby obtain nourishment. All the Ultra Beasts got fancy artwork like this, and they do a phenomenal job contextualising the Ultra Beasts in their respective worlds!
As a design, Xurkitree is composed of five sets of long cables, seemingly held together by cable ties and terminating in what resemble either frayed copper wires or plugs – two function as arms, two as legs, and one as a tail. It has some ludicrous movements and mannerisms as a result of its cable-based form, coming across as simultaneously silly and utterly uncanny when seen in motion, which is a beautiful combination of traits for anything to have. Perhaps most notably, it has no discernible face, so all of its personality is exuded by the fluid motions it displays.
Its shiny is blue, which looks a bit worse than the black overall and loses a lot of its otherworldly uncanniness, but it’s not bad. And apparently blue cables are typically Ethernet cables?? So if you’re playing fighting games or whatever online, you should probably go with the shiny.
Xurkitree, like most Ultra Beasts, is incredible. It displays an exceptionally profound degree of creativity rarely seen in the franchise, by virtue of being allowed to diverge from the formula of what really constitutes a pokemon, both aesthetically and conceptually, so drastically. It’s a pity Ultra Beasts seem limited to Alola, because getting a new set every gen would be quite welcome, as they fill a niche that nothing else can remotely touch.
A shock to the system/10.
I know you just started 🥺 and but I dont know if you’ve gotten any requests yet so Ima shoot this out there😌✨ Piers with a electic type gym leader but just platonic hc. Like shes super energetic, runs at a 100 mph (figuratively), and pretty spontaneous? Basically the polar opposite of him😳❤️ agh, there needs to be more piers content out there! So thank you for this blog 🥺💕
Oh my god, when I saw this I squeeled so loud lmao. Thank you so much for the ask. I will give this my best.
SO, I ended up making this more of a drabble on how Piers’ would’ve met this girl and found himself getting along with her. My answer was, accidentally help his sister. Let me know how it turned out! The ask was super appreciated
---------------
The Gym tournament season ended, and Piers had just retired. Some old leaders came and went; Opal made way for Bede, and Leon's little brother Hop finally took the spot as champion. Surprisingly, though, a trainer who had nothing to their name except a thunderous passion struck their way into the gym challenge as the first Electric-type gym leader in Galar. Quite a few people were skeptical when Leon announced this the day after becoming the gym challenge chairman. It was a frustrated passing comment from Marnie that piqued Piers' interest. Marnie, for the life of her, could not beat this new Gym leader. Piers watched as Marnie spent hours training for the next opportunity she had at battling her. Marnie had a new rival, and Piers' frequent teasing did not help with Marnie's thirst for blood. Finally, Piers wanted to see for himself why this girl had Marnie so riled up. He decided actually to attend one of the tournaments at Rose Stadium. He chose not to tell Marnie, figuring it might mess with her performance if she felt she had something to prove to her brother. As the battle started, this sparkly girl practically slid onto the field with her hands stuffed into her pockets. She looked about Leon's age and had a very similar attitude to him. "Back for more, are we?" The girl taunted, earning a growl from Marnie. The battle began, and Piers had a hard time keeping an eye on this girl. She hopped from one foot to the other when Marnie yelled out her commands and would spin her sneakers in the fake grass of the stadium when she shouted her own. They were both down to their last pokemon, and both the girl and piers were surprised when Marnie threw out a Trevenant. "That's new." Piers said, hearing the same words come from The girl's mic. Marnie was now making super effective hits left and right. Thrown in with the occasional Criticals, Marnie finally took down that dynamaxed Toxitricity. Team yell went insane in the crowd, horns blaring, and girls shrieking shook the stadium. Though the girl was stunned, she quickly shook it off, and a huge smile overtook her face as she ran over and picked Marnie up into a suffocating bear hug. Piers couldn't help but laugh out loud when the Rotom cameras zoomed in on Marnies' face. The girl dropped Marnie and grabbed her arm into a vigorous handshake. "Helluva display, kid!" Marnie looked downright baffled as both were called off the arena for the next round. Piers got up to meet Marnie in the locker rooms. Marnie still had a face of confusion, but it softened when she saw Piers. "Oi, What 'er you doin' here?!" Piers chuckled and put an arm around Marnie's shoulders. "Came to see what you were all worked up about. Though, I wasn't expecting you to pull out that last-minute maneuver." Marnie grinned and opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, Piers spotted the Electric gym leader over giving some kid a signed Pokeball. "I'll be right back." Piers walked over to her. "Piers. No! Piers!!" The girl turned, marker in hand, and cap wedged between her teeth. They locked eyes, and the cap soon fell to the ground. "Hey-" Piers put out a hand to greet himself. "Yo! Piers, right? Man, I didn't think you'd be here!" She took his hand and shook it hastily, "Names Y/N!" Piers cocked a brow with an unsure grin. "'Aven't seen you here before." Piers acknowledged. Y/N took her hand away and swayed in place, "Yeah, man! Leon and I were buds, so he bit me off a piece of that gym action." Y/N looked over his shoulder at Marnie, "Dude! That's totally your sister ain't it? She shocked the whole stadium!" She elbowed Piers' side, and Marnie used a hand to cover her face, "Or I guess you can say 'rocked' it? Eh? 'Cause she's your sister." Y/N clicked her tongue and shot two finger guns at Piers, and he couldn't help but laugh despite the awful joke. "Arceus, you're worse than Leon." Piers joked, and Y/N had an ear to ear simper. "Damn, man, That's an accomplishment!" Y/N shifted her feet from one side to the other. "'ave you heard o' Spikemuth?" Piers asked, his head tilted. "'Course I have. Why?" "You got some kinda thing that got m' sister tryin' to better her skills. Love to see ya 'round there sometime." Piers shoved his hands into his black leather pants, "Plus, could always use a good laugh now and again." Piers winked and went back over to his sister. Y/N's ears burned at the last comment, and as she watched them leave, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Ey, wait! I got time now." Y/N ran up behind them to follow them back to Spikemuth. Marnie glared up at Piers as he tried to stifle his growing smirk.

There are a lot of different methods that electric-type pokémon use to generate electricity... some are more effective than others.
Heliolisk is one of the absolute best, as it has evolved to take advantage of the photovoltaic effect, which allows them to transform energy from the heat and light of the sun into electrical energy – just like a solar panel! So, they can get tonnes of electrical energy stored up just by lying in the sun for a while.
One of the worst, believe it or not, is Magnemite. Though they utilise a very clean and reliable version of an electromagnetic dynamo* their small size means that the volt production is extremely low, so they often cannot produce the electricity needed to justify using their internal generators. This is why they’re drawn to places like power plants and why they can cause so much chaos in them – they have to scavenge A LOT of electrical energy for their colonies.
(*Dynamos were once a mainstay in steam engines and small electrical devices. If you’ve ever had a clock, radio or flashlight that had to be hand cranked, it probably had a dynamo. They’ve been largely surpassed by more energy efficient generators because they are, in scientific terms, a bit crap.)
