Question

Which is stronger electivire or magmortar?

Answer 1

electivire, but if only you have ice punch  

Answer 2

Electivire

Answer 3

Electivire's Base Stats:

HP: 75

Attack: 123

Defense: 67

Sp. Attack: 95

Sp. Defense: 85

Speed: 95

Magmortar's Base Stats:

HP: 75

Attack: 95

Defense: 67

Sp. Attack: 125

Sp. Defense: 95

Speed: 83

Here's what the stats tell us. Both have the same HP and defense. They have their attack and sp. attack reversed, meaning that Electivire has higher attack while Magmortar has higher sp. attack. The difference is that Magmortar trades speed for sp. defense. Magmortar has lower speed, but higher sp. defense. Electivire does the opposite. It has higher speed, but lower sp. defense.

This should mean that Magmortar should be capable of walling more than Electivire. However, fire alone, is a weak type. It has weaknesses to the common Surf and common Earthquake, as well as Stone Edge. Electivire's only weakness is ground.

Electivire also has unique move advantages which cover 13 out of the 17 types. Those moves being Thunder Punch, Ice Punch, Cross Chop, and Earthquake.

All things considered, Electivire is the best option of the two since it has higher speed, and when used correctly, has great type coverage.
