What should my Electric type in Pokemon Crystal be?

I’ve just reached Ecruteak City, and I’m in need of a good Electric type Pokemon that can be used for a while before I reach the higher levels. I have a level 22 Crocanaw, a level 20 Onix, a level 20 Drowzee, a level 20 Growlithe, a level 20 Machop, and a level 13 Golbat. I need something to replace the Golbat with, and I would like an Electric type, but any other suggestion will be taken into account. Please help me on my way to winning the game. Whatever Pokemon I catch will be named after the one who suggested it. Please and thank you.

Here are some good electric types-Jolteon (get an Eevee from Bill, in Goldenrod City, then use a thunderstone)-Electrode (get voltorb from Team Rockets base in Mahogany.-Raichu (egg from the day care lady, it can hatch into many Pokemon, one of them is pichu)

NOTE: Mareep is unavailable in Crystal

Don’t replace your Golbat, you need a flyer and Crobat is really good in Crystal.

Replace your Onix, because Steelix has really bad Special Defense, and speed so one surf can easily K.O it.

The one I would recommend over all other electric types is Chinchou. You can get it before fighting Chuck, so you’ll be able to use it a lot more than really late-arriving stuff like Jolteon. The main thing that sets it apart even more from the other electric Pokemon is that it has an actual movepool. The combination of surf, thunder/thunderbolt, and ice beam hits every Pokemon in the game for at least neutral coverage. Even better, Lanturn gets STAB for two of those moves. In order to maintain such a nice movepool, you should put on a pool cover when you’re not using it and filter it often.If you don’t want two water types on one team, then you should use Magnemite. It can’t learn any water or ice attacks, but it has better special attack and more resistances.By the way, you should probably replace your Onix with a Geodude because it can learn earthquake without a TM.

Hmm… It Looks Like Raikou Would Be Your Best Bet Since Ampharos Isn’t On Crystal…You Might Want To Consider Training Your Golbat! He Is A Very Good Pokemon When He Evolves Into Crobat!

A good electric type to use would be ampharos, lanturn, or jolteon.

I must Say Jolteon. (Female)

ATTRACTRAIN DANCE/DOUBLE TEAMTHUNDERTOXIC

I would also take out Onix who has a lot of weaknesses and grab a Teddiursa and give it Earthquake for ground coverage and less weaknesses since it’s attack power is great. And you could give it brick break and get rid of that Machop as well. Probably grab a skarmory. Have a tougher Squad.
