Is Emolga worth using in Wi-Fi battles?

I’ve been using Emolga over Wi-Fi, and I keep seeing Zapdos and Thundurus, and its making me mad.I’ve been fast enough to set up Light Screen then Volt Switch to Musharna, but that’s just babbling, even with a good nature, is he really worth keeping?

Since you’re using Emolga on Wifi, I’ll put my full critique into it since I don’t have to consider in-game aspects.

Emolga has a terrible time trying to compete with the other Electric/Flying types, both of which are legendary. Emolga, when compared to them, just can’t compete.

Even as a Pokemon in general, it’s just a terrible choice. I’ve seen many Pokemon with low stats still be used on Wifi because of their niche (Mawile and Weezing, for example). Emolga has low stats but that’s not what makes it bad: it’s stats re so horribly placed that it can’t do anything!

This thing has nothing to set up with that Speed, its typing is pretty good, but most Pokemon online who learn Earthquake also learn Stone Edge. It has 75 attacking stats, 55/60/60 bulk, which is a joke, and Speed that still lets it get outrun by many threats.

Its movepool is pretty fair, intertwining two useful movepool aspects that come from Electric AND Flying-types. The problem is that, with its stats, it can’t put any of it to use. Even with that Speed, it could be used to set up stuff in NU. Too bad it can only set up Light Screen, though.

So yeah, in short: Emolga is far from worth using. In fact, I’d recommend to never use it. Ever.

Dude try to understand this. EMOLGA IS WASTE.It has MUCH LOWER than acceptable stats and I really recommend not using it .Rather get EELEKTROSS because it has NO disadvantage the ground is covered with levitate .

Well Emolga can be a good help later, because in the Elite Four, you have to battle a guy who only has fighting type pokemon. Flying type is fighting type’s weakness. Emolga is not only a flying type, but an electric type too.

I knowmany peoplewill say Emolga is bad. But that’sonly offensively,Emolga is agreatstaller.

Let me start by explaining an ideal moveset,

Focus Sash -

(You can also have substitute for increased survivability)

Emolga, being a already speedy Pokemon, can outspeed most Pokemon and already start with a attract (if opposite gender) to have a chance of immobilization and not get hit, and then use swagger for a even lower chance for a foe to hit. And even if the foe is faster, Emolga can survive with focus Sash so it can use nuzzle for paralysis and get the speed cut, so it can then use attract or swagger and get the low hit rate, and then air slash for the added flinch chance.

Although it can still fail, Emolga can be very stally.
