Electrabuzz in pokemon pearl?

Question

i just traded a scizor for a electrabuzz and i was wodering if i should evolve it first thing or train it then evolve?

Answer 1

i would check if there are any moves he cant learn if he evolves too early and then train him till he learns those moves then evolve and EV train. you should check his stats out first though and see if his attack or sp attack is higher then train the one that is higher and teach him either pyhsical or special moves depending on how u trained him.

Answer 2

I think you should train it then evolve it.Because you train it first and make it better and better moves so it can be better.

Answer 3

don't listen to the guy that said you got screwed over. electrivire (spelling) is the best electric pokemon which is the evolve form of electabuzz so you got a great deal. to answer your question yes evolve immediately then ev train into sp atk and one more thing  

Answer 4

It depends on what you want for it to do. If you're gonna battle it on wifi or something you should evolve it right away and ev train it to get really strong since electivire is one of the strongest electric pokemon.

Electivire is basically the same as its pre evolution forms but it can use some attacks that they can't such as

- Flamethrower

- Earthquake

- Rock Slide

so there's a bigger variety of attacks you can do to stay alive longer against pokemon type it's weak against.

However, if you jsut like an electrabuzz then you should go with it. Like how people like pikachu instead of Raichu. It depends on your taste.

But I recommend Evolving it to an electivire.
